New Playing Strategy..........

[Fairwaysplitter3320]

I played my round of 16 match today and lost 2 and 1. I played a 6 handicapper who was giving me 5 strokes. I started by hitting the first two fairways and greens and 3 putting both greens to do down 2 right away. I just did not have the putting touch today. My opponent was steady with all pars until about the 11th hole I think. I was down 3 most of the match and was down 5 after 12 holes. My putter woke up on 13 and I won 3 holes in a row to battle back to 2 down with 3 to go. We pushed #16 with pars and we pushed #17 with pars, and that's where it ended 2 & 1. He was a true gentleman to compete with. I gave him all I had today. Maybe next year?

Well done buddy!!!

Perfect Club 21*
Cobra Baffler 5h 26*
PING Eye 2 7i
PING i3 Blade 9i

I have not been able to get off the tee very well of late. The last 5-6 rounds the tee shot has cost me about 6-8 strokes. Tomorrow I'm going to try something just to help get the groove back. I have a 14° and 20° hybrids that I hit pretty well for about 230 and 215 yards respectively. I'm going to use the 14° for tee shots and the 20° for long fairway shots. The rest of the bag will be 5-gw, sw, putter for 11 clubs. We'l see what happens.

Tell the truth about your driver distance and they will ban you right away.

That is funny and sad at the same time.

Hit 10 of 14 fairways today and scored 10 strokes better than I've been scoring. I really need to work on my driver.
