Hi all,
I’ve played the Chrome Soft for a long time. Today, I tried a TP5 on a whim (couple generations old, but new condition), and noticed much better distance off the tee. Couple of drives were 300+, a first for the season. That was great, as well as the greenside spin. What I didn’t like...
Ironically, the best shot of the round came immediately after my worst shot of the round. Short par 4, narrow and downhill then back up hill to the green, I topped the everliving out of my tee shot with my 3 wood. Didn’t even reach the fairway. No clue what happened. Get up to the ball, had...
75 (+4). 38-37. Favorite course in my area.
Pretty plain front. One bogey, one double thanks to a 180 lip back from 3 feet, rest pars. Left a couple birdies out there that I wish I could have back, but can’t complain about pars.
Back was a little crazier. Started with 3 pars, then...
I’ve played both the Thistle Dhu putting course as well as The Cradle (9 hole par 3 course) at Pinehurst barefoot. It was a ton of fun. In fact, every time I go, I play Thistle Dhu in the evening barefoot.
Took a ball in the shoulder blade from someone that apparently didn’t know how to scream “FORE.” Not a serious injury, but hurt like hell and my shoulder blade was black and blue for a week. Suffice it to say, it was not a fun round from then on.
Swing is worse than my scoring (6.6 GHIN). I have a slow, smooth, deliberate swing, so it is not anything that makes people go “whoa” when they see it. But I make good, consistent contact with it.
Yup. After a putting slump recently, I got so over analytical about my putting set-up and all the details that go with, that I legit couldn’t function when putting. I used the exact phrase you did - “paralysis by analysis.” Luckily I’ve been able to rebound and get out of it, but I’ve...
Par 3, 138 yards, stout wind in the face. Hit a 3-quarter knockdown 9 iron to keep it low, put it to a few feet (pic attached). Yellow circle is the ball mark where it hit pin high. Made the birdie putt.
I’ve been contemplating doing a putter fitting at Golf Galaxy. I called earlier today, and the person I spoke with said they do an analysis on their “bio mat” that analyzes everything with your stroke, arc, posture, lie, loft, etc. Very in-depth breakdown from the sound of it.
Has anyone here...
A little late posting this, but from my golf trip to Wisconsin this past week:
Brown Deer Park - 79 (37-42)
Irish at Whistling Straits - 80 (40-40)
Erin Hills - 82 (41-41)
Two birdies, three doubles over the course of these 54 holes. All courses were par 72.
