sounds like a crazy notion I know, but there are times my overall score is a better average round yet there are times the score is not quite as good but the round felt more satisfying probably due to the quality of good shots made. This topic I think was mentioned here once before by someone quite a long time ago and I thought I recall some good thoughts on it.
Recently I had one those rounds where total score wasn't among my best yet I felt very happy and satisfied with the ball striking. Conversely there have been times I scored a better (for me) round yet the ball striking left me feeling somewhat dissatisfied or "not so good". I suppose it has to do with mishits and general ball striking. Sometimes the less than good ball striking (or mishits) still leaves you moving forward efficiently so you score well but don't feel so great about it. Other times there may be several great shots made but overall you didn't move forward efficiently enough often enough to score as well yet you feel pretty darn good about the round even though a higher score. Most probably due to a percentage of really good shots.
Ever think about this or experience this?
