Better. Back to -1.

Holy ballooning 9-iron. Back to even. Couldn't get up and down from where I landed. Even.
I'm tired and sore from yesterday, and getting steep, but that was ridiculous.

Edit: I can see the fatigue in that swing. And it would have been a bit of a spinner in normal conditions and setup. Yuck.

Come on Epic. Let's make this wind our b*tch.

Not quite what I had in mind. Got it on and made par. Even with 2 to go. As I've gone to crap my playing partner has been coming on hard. It's AS. 2 holes, $200 to win or lose.

Looks awesome out there. I love late Autumn golf!

Sweet, sweet eagle. -2, 1 up. Last hole.

Not how you would draw up cutting the corner on the dogleg, but lucked out with a clear path. 197 to the pin, straight into the wind.
 
Took a horrible bounce off of something just short of the green and ended up in trouble. Worked a par and LOST the hole on a nice 15' birdie. -2, AS. If we get out again this year, I'm not playing poorly fit irons for a $300 bet. Those ferrules need to get here, toot sweet!

Challenging round. Grateful for the day though. Can't beat 76 and sunny in mid November, even if the wind is blowing.

49° and sunny. Playing the tips (7050 yds). Last two money matches have been a push, so there's a lot more than we normally bet rolled over onto this one.

I'm playing all new clubs, so it could be interesting.
 
20191114_123930.jpg

NOT the start I was looking for.


Edit:

20191114_124112.jpg

I'll take that though.

Had a chance to go up 1 on #2, but no. I was really feeling InTheRough's avatar on this one.

20191114_130554.jpg

Out putted him on #3 though (on the left) for birdie. Let the winning begin! Lol


Edit:

Had to include this tee shot on #4. We were talking about the green, and he was saying there's no way to hold it if you land it pin high. 185 yd, 7-iron, it held. Good shot of the new white ferrules too. Grips arrived today, so I'll finish them out tonight.

Third lip-out of the day already! Grr.

-2, 2 up through 6.



20191114_134246.jpg


Couple bombs to get there, but wind pushed me left. Kind of botched my pitch, but made the 15' birdie.

-3, still 2 up.
Good drive to start this par 5 7th. I have video I'll upload later.


Edit:


308 up the right side. Long for me. Might have had s a little wind help, but it's uphill some too.

Hate this approach on 8. Hate it. Nothing useful to aim at. The gopher hill in my stance isn't helping either.

20191114_140556.jpg

Worked out for me, but it was part luck. Buddy is in trouble to the right.

Out in 33. This ugly one into the wind coming up next.

First bogey of the day. Pulled a 5-iron off the tee. This is NOT where you want to be.

-2, up 2.

It was a big tee shot, but not big enough to get over this damn hill. Someday I will clear this hill. Some day.

3W approach went left and I'm just off the high side of a very unpleasant green. :/
 
20191114_145246.jpg

He tapped in for birdie, and I missed mine low side. -2, 1 up.

Good tees and approaches on 13, but neither one of us could hole a birdie. I came up short for the second time today which is completely unacceptable in my world.

Now we head back into the wind. Long par 5 to start.

Missed the fairway on my second, but have a decent approach angle.

20191114_152854.jpg

And I much prefer my putt to that one coming down the hill. Lol
 
Nailed it. -3, 2 up.
 
20191114_153433.jpg

We both took this dogleg, but could only make par.

20191114_154229.jpg

I put myself right in the middle of the split fairway on the next, but caught a good lie.

20191114_154506.jpg

2 putt for me from there, and he made that for an up and down par. -3, 2 up heading to 17.

Oh, man. I was talking serious smack as we rode to green about what I was going to spend my money on, and he f-ing made that chip from the fridge. Un. Real.

edit: Looks like it got cut off. He went long (left fringe in the picture).

20191114_155945.jpg

-3, 1 up heading to the last. It's a tough one. My family lived across the street from the tee for almost 20 years, but I didn't play then! Come on, Pops. Help me out a little.
