I keep getting a blister on my right hand (I am right handed) after a round. I've only played 4 rounds this summer (and maybe 10 ever) and the last 3 times I've gotten a blister on my right middle finger. Any advice?

Also, I got my second birdie ever today!

[ QUOTE ]
Shot even par for 18 holes for the first time this morning.

18 is a par-5 and I was left with about 135 from the middle of the fairway. Hard 9 or easy 8. Hmmmm. How about easy 8 fatted about 90 yards. Finished with bogey for an even par 71. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img].

I was two under par through five holes, bogeyed six, then eleven consecutive pars until I choked.

44+44 = 88

and my short game and putting were fantastic today - I one-putted about 8 greens and got up and down for par 5 times. please excuse me while I break every club in my bag longer than my lob wedge.

i haven't hit a decent ball with my hybrid in about five rounds, my driver was a little erratic on the par fives, and I found every possible way to miss the green from the middle of the fairway, 100 to 130 out.

Brag: 41 (+6) for 9 holes in my golf league (par 35, my 9-hole league handicap was 11 before the round)

Beat: Was +3 through 7 holes, hit a perfect drive on #8 and was 130 yards away after my drive, in the middle of the fairway and ended up +6 for the round.
Beat 2: Shot at stupid sucker pin on #8, pulled ball left ~10 yards more than intended, and it rolled literally 6 inches past the OB stake line.
Beat 3: :Probably ruined my golf league handicap which will I think will drop to an 8 or 9.
Beat 4: Did not even win my match as my opponent also was 5 shots under his handicap and we tied 3-3 in holes.
Variance: Not much, 0 birdies, 5 pars, 3 bogeys, 1 double (freaking #8).

Also, shot a 43/46 over the weekend on a 135 slope country club course that I'd never played before.

Playing again this Sunday...I figure while I'm hitting ball better than I have like, ever before in my entire life, I might as well keep playing a lot.

New low today, 50+52=102.

Took the advice from all you guys in the moving back in tees thread and went back to the whites and played really well. Short game and putting were fantastic today except for a 330 yard par 4. I drove it about 270 (one of the best drives of my life) and ended up with a 7 on the hole. I don't know how it happened.. it stopped me from breaking 100, which is upsetting, but I can't be too sad. My previous best was a 109, set 2 weeks ago.. it just keeps getting easier and easier. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

43 (+6) in my weekly nine hole league on the most difficult of the four nines. One bird, two pars, and one freaking double after duffing not one, but two chips within 30 yards. At least the third chip was to within six inches to "save" the double.

The birdie was nice, pin high, eight feet off the green in two on a 500 yard par 5, chip to about 4 feet, and trickle in the straight downhill putt.

Up to nine birdies this year, after getting only three all of last year. Average league score down by about 1.5 strokes (for nine).

Brag (for me): 43 on a difficult nine, net 34
Beat: Lost to both opponents (nets 34, 33)
Variance: Fifth 43 this year in 11 league weeks.
