What did you shoot today?

[frichissin]

Here is an oldie but goodie.

[JamesGold]

Signature! Hooooray!!!

[TTUfirebird2008]

Yes, one of the best threads ever!

I shot 83 yesterday. 10/14 fairways, 12/18 GIR, and 38 putts (4 3-putts...grrrr). 1st round of the new year and first since September so not too shabby overall!

[300Yards]

Just got back from my session. Shoot 2 under through front 9, and +1 through back 9. Did pretty good.

That's really good. Congrats.

[ZenSwing]

OK, not as good as everyone else, but hey it's good 4 me...LOL

Shot a 41 on a 31 par executive 9'er with (honestly) no Mully's.

[Mprezd]

Well, I didn’t finish a round on Saturday, but played 14 holes (enough to count it)
Was 62 through 14 for a 7 over.

[halk]

I would like to post what I shot today but sadly my home course is still closed due to the weather went by today locked up everyone gone home greens covered.

[jwaldrop]

Well, an unspectacular 82 on a really soggy home course. Had a great time, though.

What is your home course? Chambers County GC?

It is, as a matter of fact. Are you familiar with Chambers?

Yes indeed. I'm from Baytown, so I've played Chambers quite a bit (probably 5 or 6 times) but I have not played there in the last couple of years. It's a good track though for sure.

[Bulls9999]

I didn't shoot anything today....our club course is still closed due to too much snow on the ground (and frozen ground a half-inch below the grass)....been either snowing or too cold for 2-3 weeks now. But they opened the driving range and I hit 3 buckets of balls....ooh, I'm getting rusty.

Sorry, I'm getting grumpy without golf...I don't know how people do it up in Wisconsin. I bet you could start a business opening a driving range in an old warehouse up there....knock out a wall, have heaters inside and offer refreshments.

It's way to cold to go golfing right now for me. I have a windchill of -20* F and a wind advisory until Tuesday.

That's painful just to read!

[progolf4life]

LOL ya tell me about it. It ***** but it has to warm up sometime.

[etggolf]

Was over 80 today in Los Angeles... I shot 73 today

Ah,...much finer than over 73 and shooting 80!

[mr_bogey]

I had a 9 AM tee time Saturday. About 12 hours before it I got the call - someone laying out Saturday, did I want a shift of OT? I had the choice, but I decided soggy course, temp in the 30's to low 40's, windy to boot and cloudy - it was a no-brainer - I went and made the easy shift of OT. On next payday I will be pretty glad I did...

[Bigvivec]

Shooting the usual garbage I have been lately...only difference is the usually reliable short game wasn't there today...101...the worst serious golfer I know! I really can't tell you what is wrong...I take a lesson and tell my pro what I have been shooting lately, then proceed to knock down all the markers on the range...he wants to go play a round with me to see what is going on, and I am starting to get desparate...this run of bad form is about to enter the third month and I can't seem to shake it...of course I get a little crazy and tin cupped a 12 with four water balls on 16...

[C-Tech]

Drove 7 hours round trip to do it, but shot 88 on a course to our south, out of the snow and ice.

[pgonza2723]

Well, again had a very rough day at the course. I got there an hour early as I always do, putted for about 15 mins. then headed over to the range. First 20 warm-ups 1/2 shots were normal, then I started my full swing then disaster struck....shank. Hmmm, let me shrug it off, shank...uh oh, shank, shank, shank, shank. Even my 3/4 & 1/2 shots started becoming thin or shank shots. So I stopped right there and went to the short game area and back to putting. First 9 holes, I 1 putted most greens and my around the green chipping never left me farther than 3 ft. It was getting myself from the tee box where it all went horribly wrong. Ended with a 49 for the front, 4 of those being penalty strokes from the ball hastily leaving the hosel to the right. The back 9 I made one simple little adjustment based on what I saw in my shadow waiting at the 10th tee box (saw I was coming more inside than usual) and bam, I was back. Ended up shooting a 38 which makes it another one of those weird 87's....

I am in the same boat. It has been below 0* here since Friday.

[LadyWalker]

Walker and I played yesterday in our annual Super Bowl Tournament and shot a Very forgetable 84. Neither of us had played in a month or so (wet wet wet) and it sure showed. I will be lucky to ever get him to play with me again.

I wish I could play a round of golf...It is like -4 in Grand Rapids right now

[RyanBounce04]

The course was packed today! It's been the nicest weather all year! I only played nine holes today, but if was the first nine holes I've played since the middle of November. I shot a 34 (-1). The Sumo2 was working well along with the irons as I struck them very nicely. I could have shot probably 3 or 4 under if it wasn't for the flatstick!

Ryan

[jwaldrop]

About 50 chips and about 50 putts all the while wearing shorts on a beautiful February day in SE Texas.

[stlcards08]

I played a round in my mind while spacing out in school. Ended up shooting 42-43. You would think I would shoot better in a day dream.

Yes I am officially in a slump. My last 5 nines are 41-38-41-42-41. I am not doing anything well right now, at least not consistently. Pistol tried to let me off the hook by trapping his approach and bogeying the last hole, but I rewarded his generosity with some of my own, a lousy 3 putt from 30 uphill feet.

[C-Tech]

85 on par 71 course. Very, very wet and windy, but at least I was out there hittin em...

[JungleJ]

Played my first round in 2 months last weekend, managed 9 holes before I caught up with gents' swindle.

After all that time off I was mentally prepared for shank city, but in fact I shot 40 for the front nine, 5 under par net, with no doubles, one sand save and 5/7 fairways!

My next round should be the club championships in June! I'll win going away

You won't play again for 4 months and you expect to win the club championship? You're either related to Bruce Lietzke, or your club members play from an intensive care unit!

I figured if I have two months off and shoot 5 under for nine, I should go REALLY low with 4 months rest.

Or maybe it was a fluke?

[silverback]

Shot 74 on par 73 on sunday and won the comp.One under front two over back.Should have been better as i had 4 birdies.But the course is playing really long.I am at least 30yrds short of my summer driving area and thats off the yellows.Putting was good though.

Pistol claims his 5th straight match, but at least it was close for a change. Both of us are battling with our putters a little bit, but Pistol's ball striking has been better than mine. That said, today gave me some hope since from about the third hole on, I hit the ball much better and mostly was hurt by 3 putts on 4 & 5.

[mr_bogey]

Pistol and I played today, but not together, as he played in the Retired Military monthly event. It would've been a wash if we had played, as we both shot 75 and we each would've won a side. I played the senior tees for the first time today (I will turn 54 in May), but it isn't much advantage - some holes play much shorter, but others have the landing areas really squeezed, so it really isn't much difference.

[Chip Shot]

Today I played at Woodley Lakes which is a par 72 course. I had a 9:15 a.m. tee off time with my Dad and the weather seemed perfect in the Low 70's, but it was a little bit windy. I shot a miserable 88 and had 1 birdie and way too many bogeys. My putting once again let me down where there were several chances I could have had par but ended up with a bogey because of my poor putting. All in all though it was a great day out on the golf course with my Dad as it always is.

[jwaldrop]

It was a dreary, cold, windy, overcast 42* when we teed off this morning (other than that it was a pretty day), and I shot a Jekyl and Hyde 47-38-85. It was interesting day, as I was 11 over on the first 7 holes, 2 over on the last 11.
