What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

I think this forum could use a BBV thread, so here it is.

Brag: Shot 80 today on my home course (par 72) - I'm a 12 handicap so this is a very good number for me.

Beat: Had a [censored] quadruple bogey on the easiest hole on the course. Stupid sand features.

Variance: Lost $3 thanks to the team game.

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

last round: 80 cabo del sol(desert). 4 birdies (3 eagle putts)including the 313yd par 4 3rd. chalk it up to rental clubs/rental putter. won $10 on a $5 nassua which was big money for the guy i was playing w/ from fresno. funny stuff on a course that costs over $200 a round. thats why you cant hustle golf on a golf course.

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

77 69.6/118 1 birdie. Started out hitting my drive on the first hole 50 yards. Missed a 2ft birdie putt. 3 putted 2 greens. 0 hosel shots.

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

9 hole score yesterday, 43. That's about what I've been shooting, but I'm happy with it yesterday since it's the first time I've played since totally revamping my grip and swing. I hit my irons really well, but couldn't hit my driver worth a damn. That was frustrating, since I HAVE been hitting off the tee better than I ever have. New stuff isn't working out with the driver. It was BAD.

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

uhh played at a lit course tonight, not gonna do that again. its just too dark for me to make good contact and line up my shots right.

34 on 9 par 3s lol.

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

53 for 9 holes, hit the ball like [censored], putt like [censored], and had a 9 on a par 3. stupid water feature.

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

bennyhana, it is too bad we don't live near each other to play for money...that score indicates we're right on par with each other probably. I'm going tuesday I think, I will post then.

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

Also I have a PAT to take on monday so I'll have a nice TR for that one.

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

What qualifies for your PAT Ghostface?

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

154 on a par 70 course

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

GL on that PAT,


(prewarn, brag)
I played 9 with our GM after our city championship today, fired 32(-3)1 par 5 on front and missed 3 birdie putts inside the flagstick, hopefully it will keep up on Monday, we have triple play in the desert(9 BB, 9 scramble, 9 alternate shot)

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

played the lit course with Ghostface...i shot 35 on those same 9 holes...suckage!

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

Shot a 107 on my home course.

Not bad for me considering that's my best score there since I started playing 2 years ago and this was my first time out since September.

Crappy course was very wet and it had easily cost me a few strokes and my touch on a few shots was just off so I'm hoping to break 100 real soon.

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

sry mean

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

84, pretty average. The first hole I duffed my drive about 40 yards, it barely got past the ladies tees. My next shot I hit a 5 wood about 330 over the green, almost killing some asian lady in the process. Before anyone calls BS on my 330 5 wood it was downhill and downwind, and this thing exploded off the club face.

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

Tied my best round ever yesterday at Waterview in Rowlett, TX. 5-under 67 with a bogey on the driveable par 4. Super easy course though for me, 5 sets of tees, played one up from tips. I think I had sandwedge into every hole except two. Good luck ghostface!!! I passed a PAT in Phoenix when I was attending SDGA. When in doubt, lay up.

I don't know much about physics of golf and stuff, but this implies to me that there is a very good chance your driver off the tee would have gone over the green. Not guaranteed but quite possible, no?

When I played Cabo del Sol the Desert course hadn't opened yet - it was like literally a week or two away, would have been sooner but a hurricane had come through a couple of months earlier and set them back.

It's fair to say the Ocean course is in my top five that I've ever played. Have you played both and if so how well does Desert compare? I can't imagine it's AS good as there are no ocean holes, but plenty of ocean views.

Nice round, sheesh.

Regarding PAT, I'm embarrassed to say I had no idea what it was, had to google it. Where did you have yours here in Phoenix and what did you shoot?

From the PGA site:

[ QUOTE ]
The PAT is conducted from the middle tees of the golf course with the flagsticks set on a generally flat area of the green. Although this sounds relatively simple, less than 20% of those taking the test achieve a passing score. If your game is marginal, it is highly recommended that you work diligently on improving prior to registering for the PAT.

56/49

10 on the first hole Par-4. 8 on the second hole. First time out this year. Took me a while to figure out how to swing again.

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

83 on Boundary Oak in Walnut Creek with Four 3 putts, and more than a couple missed up/downs.

yeah ive played both many times, desert is rediculously nice. 3rd best course in cabo now that el dorado is private (even then the eldorado private course isnt that good equivalent of palmilla). 2nd best course is cabo real. once the 4 new courses at pueblo bonita are opened these rankings will change dramatically.

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

Last round was 65, on Thursday. Better that normal. If I'm putting good I'll shoot 65-70, putting bad 71-76.

8 birdies in 16 holes, bogey on 17, lip out birdie on 18.

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

PAT sucks i can shoot 73 any day with tougher conditions and have done stupid [censored] during my pat rounds twice going again during summer seeing how we've had 5 days to play this season, good luck where do you go?

Well given the wind factor I think a driver and a 5 wood would probably go close to the same distance since a 5 wood can really get up in the air and take advantage of the wind. But you're right, if I smoked a drive I probably could have came close to the green.

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

BRAG: 77 today

BEAT: 90 yesterday

VARIANCE: Back hurts like [censored]

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

Shot a 106 today [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]. 48 on the front and a 58 on the back. So frustrating to completely fall apart like that.

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

Shot a 96 last Wednesday...exams this week but hope to get out after exams and take out some frustration on some golf balls and shoot under 90

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

82 today. Snap hooked two [censored] drives out of bounds. [Censored] playing the back tees. Missed a couple makeable putts too.

Mini brag: Recovered on the OB holes to make a bogey and a double even with the penalty.

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

81 yesterday, 82 today. Won $100 yesterday, lost $50 today. Hit it much better yesterday but scored poorly. Irons were awful today but made a couple of nice up-and-downs, including from the bunker on 18 to save par and about $40.

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

limon,

Thanks. El Dorado is the only course down there I've played twice, and I heard it since went private. Pity, but not a huge loss with all the other courses, new and old. Played Cabo Real once too, enjoyed it.

The thing about Cabo del Sol is that even the non-ocean holes on the Ocean course were incredibly memorable. Very well manicured and a fair, challenging layout. When I was there they had the taco bar set up by the clubhouse, which you were supposed to hit when you came back towards the clubhouse on 11. Good times. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

OK, I know what a PAT is now. What's the point?

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

I must pass it to become a class a pga pro. Bad thing is my tee times in 6 hours.

again today.

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

94 on a local muni here in the Denver area. First time out this year and did not play last year. I felt like I left at least 10 shots out there due to stupid plays, bad putts, etc. I had a birdie and two pars. My last handicap was 15 several years ago.

You apparently skipped over my 100+ score. It's not even long or difficult. Not sure what rating/slope is.

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

I'm an 8 index, played my fourth round of golf this season (shot 93, 91, 86 the first three times, what a mess!), then Saturday I had my second best round with a score of 77 on a 71/125 course.

Everything was clicking nicely, one birdie - and two three putts (on the 9th and 18th holes) [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Was fun to feel like I know how to play this game after all. Still going to get new irons next week, even though I was hitting these Ping i3+ just fine [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
 

Finally got out for the first time this year. Shot a 93 in 15-30mph winds on a course I have never seen before, which includes a 10 on a hole when I hit the ball OB three times. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

Still won $65 because the guy I'm playing with still thinks he can beat me straight up. [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

I keep waiting for him to ask for shots, but every week he just looks at me and says $5 a hole $10 a nine and $10 for 18. I used to think he was setting me up, but this has been going on for a year and a half. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

What is your HDCP that a 93 is such a disappointment?

Anyway, good for you to have a "reverse sandbagger" on the hook. I know one of them, I hate getting paired with him because it's like instantly giving the other team 3-4 shots. He shoots his best rounds when nobody is watching, "finds" his ball in the desert 100% of the time when he looks for it himself, and otherwise just can't face the fact that he's insecure about his abilities and simply not as good as he is trying to project.
