how often do you practice/play?

nice score!!

Not as often as I'd like. once/wk. Like I said in Present Life Golf Beat, I still am no where near good enough to play professionally. Not even close. I don't shoot good enough consistently enough and I definitely don't practice/play enough.

After leaving college, I kinda figured out what makes my swing tick. I'm somewhat lucky that I can turn up and play after weeks without my game deteriorating much. Moreover, there's no pressure anymore like there used to be so I find it easier to shoot better scores these days. My h'cap is two and a reasonable one. I was just running hot with my iron play.

I drive well and putt well. If I miss greens I'm in trouble cause my chipping sucks. I think I only missed 2/3 greens on this occasion and just barely missed them.

Belfair East Course
Bluffton, SC.

6,900/137/73.9

It's a beautiful golf course but I think it plays at least a shot easier than 73.9. It doesn't play particularly long and all par 5s are reachable assuming you've got a 275yd cranked 3-wood in your bag.

P.S. the 10th states over 600yds but:

(1) doesn't play this long
(2) is the hole you're least likely to reach and does require the wind in the right direction
(3) if you take a really tight line and have the balls to carry the water for the second shot, it can be done. This is where I had my triple bog obv.!
