Re: What did you shoot today?

Sometimes a change of venue is necessary... For about the last 7 months, I don't think I've played more than one round at any course other than my home course. As I've stated many times over, my home course has OB on all but 3 holes and water on all but 5 holes. Pulled up to the course the other day and a tournament was going on, so I drove over to the second nearest course, one I hadn't played in at least a couple of years. The rates there are lower and they are usually very busy; I got lucky and it wasn't terribly busy when I got there. This course is shorter than my home course, and the rating is just a smidge lower, but the slope for this one is a bit higer than my home course. Regardless, with no OB to worry about and fewer hazards (more trees), I shot 89. And I didn't really hit the ball well. Proves that playing my course helps prepare me better for other courses, especially ones with less OB...
