Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
85 on the Desert course at Primm on Monday. I drove pretty well all day except for spraying 2 tee shots severely right.
The first one went into a waste area on 14 and I took my medicine with a drop and a double bogey.
The 2nd one was equally bad on the par 4 17th but it went so far right I ended up with a blind, but straight, 170 yard shot from the 10th fairway. I hit it straight but to the right side of the green. Since the shot was blind I immediately ran up after the ball as soon as I hit it to try to see where it would end up. I didn't see it land but my first view of the ball was after a severe and very lucky kick to the left off the side of a hill on the right side of the green. By the time I saw the ball it was slowly rolling closer and closer to the pin and I drained a 5 footer for birdie. I deserved a bogey, but luck can't always be bad.
For an August afternoon in the Mojave it was a nice sub 100 degree afternoon - pretty windy but not impossible.
