ABSOLUTELY NO distance whatsoever, my longest drive was about 270, didnt miss the sweet spot once at all, every drive I hit was pured (not even kidding about that either!  ), I had ZERO distance today, the harder I swung the shorter the ball went too (everything went straight, at one point I clubbed up 3 clubs and still came up short with a 5 iron from 160!  )
It was just retarded, hitting every fw, im used to being short of my friend because he'll hosel a drive and still outdrive me by a few, but im usually within 15 yards np when im puring it, but didnt touch within 30 of him today, and then my iron shots were total shit, and even if I hit a good one it'd come 10-20 yards short! Just absolutely retarded day all in all.
I have no clue really, my tempo and overall swing felt really good, I was striking the ball off the tee about as well as i have all year, inside of 100 yards i never took more than 3 shots (got up and down 17 times today, unfortunately half them were for bogies), only problem was that I hit more than half my possible approach shots into hazards and had to drop out or chip out...
Thank god im seeing my coach tomorrow, if something happens and he isnt there tomorrow im guna have to rethink going back to lacrosse 
Ahhh.... thats my rant for today  Comment and laugh as you will. Or if you have any ideas of maybe having absolutely NO distance whatsoever plz share as not even being able to hit my 9 iron from 130 is depressing since I was hitting it 155-160 not even 3 days prior... |
Argh. Another single-digit capper complaining about how bad his game is when he goes out in +7. If I go out in +7, it's an average day for me, and I expect to do about that. Quit yer' whining.
Welcome back to the club where the rest of us belong. I can only hit a 9 iron about 135, 140 on a good day. 5 iron, 180 or so.
Maybe you're suffering from the same problem I had - hitting clubs on the toe, but only slightly. Contact will still feel good, but you'll lose 30 yards, easily.
