Default 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.

Shot a 47 on a 36 two days ago. I scrambled great, got up and down a couple of times, but my long irons and anything off the tee was pretty much horrible.

Could have been much worse, considering I hadn't even picked up clubs in almost 3 months.

This from yesterday, but played a Beat the Pro with the ladies club at my sister course and shot 66, walking in the Southern California heat, par 71 and dropping back a group after each 3 hole stretch to play with all the groups. One woman tied me net no one beat me. Probably gonna shoot 80 next time I play, I was in New York for the last week without clubs, fitness center, etc. so no practice of any kind for like 10 days.

I'm going to play Whitehawk Ranch tomorrow. It's at altitude, so hopefully this won't be too much of a problem:

Rating/Slope
------------
TEE________MEN_____WOMEN__YARDAGE
Four Hawk__72.6/133 _________6927
Three Hawk_70.3/123 74.6/141_6457
Two Hawk___66.5/115 70.6/132_5673
One Hawk___62.9/105 65.4/122_4816

It did remind me of the "white tees" thread, though, as I'll give Three Hawks a shot. 66.5/115 seems pretty neutered (although it's not like I'd shoot even par or anything).

Played Member-Guest with my dad at Fairvue Plantation in Gallatin, TN.

Brag: best ball - shot 82 on Thursday (I was rated an 18 for this tourney as I don't have official HC); our team netted out to 61, which put us in second place after round 1; after the scrambled drive round 2 on Friday (net 67), we were 3 shots back in third

Beat: best ball - shot 103 on Saturday's final round 3; our team netted out to 73; finished 5th

Variance: see brag and beat above; 2 birds in a row on Thursday (net eagles); carded a triple on Friday on a par 3 (scrambled drive!), followed by a net eagle on a par 4

Paiute Wolf 36 today. Nothing really working well, had to scramble almost all day.

55-58-113
52-59-111

Second round I cost myself 6 shots jacking around trying to hit driver which I never do. Irritating. A far cry from my 51-50 here a few weeks ago where my ball striking was real good for me all day.

88. Worst ballstriking round all year by far and nothing I did seemed to help. Hit exactly 4 greens in regulation, 1 on the back nine. If I hadn't had six one putt greens on the back it would have been VERY ugly.

At least two of the four greens I hit were par 3s and I won a few bucks for being closest to the pin.

Played Pebble Creek in NJ on Friday. Really enjoyed the course, although I think I could have made a couple better decisions if it hadn't been my first time there.

Birdied the toughest hole on the course (#8-par 5) and shot a 41 on the front. Not talking about the back. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
