Where do you guys talk about your rounds? I guess I'll start a thread if there isn't a forum/thread for this yet.
I played 18 at Valley View in Layton, Utah today. I still consider this to be my home course even though I moved a little farther away to Salt Lake. I play in the men's association Tuesdays and the monthly Saturday tournaments. The weekly 9 hole tournaments start this week (snowed out last week).
I shot an 85 today. I shot 46-39. I have a 5.3 handicap. It's tough when starting a new season. We don't get much of a chance to play in the winters here. I'm out snow boarding or fly fishing.
I had an 8 (quad) on #3. I pull/hooked my drive into the water, then hit a 3 wood exactly where the drive went. The only way I could do that was to top it and pull it straight left, but I pulled off the shot. Then, I took another drop and ended up with a really bad lie, but had a great 3 wood this time. So, I was lying 5 and still not on the green. Oh well, at least I can't report more than a double hehe.
On the flip side, I birdied 6 and 7. My drive on 6 was ridiculous, though. I pulled it into the trees in the hazard, but it kicked out and into the rough. I hit a sweet 8 iron from there inside 10 feet and made the putt. It's a very easy short hole. On 7, I hit a draw and missed a little left of the green, but it kicked toward the flag. I made a tough 30 footer or so for that bird.
I only hit 1 fairway on the front. I hit 6 out of 7 fairways on the back. I hit 9 out of 18 greens (4/5). I had 35 putts (not too good). I don't like the way I am swinging. Hopefully, I'll get back on track in a few days when I take my third lesson in a series of five.
Not much out of the ordinary other than the bad score on #3
. I did get a sandy on #12 from the left sand, though. This sand is way above the green...a rare situation in golf. I was at the edge of the trap and had to play with one foot out.
I will work on a way to let people view other people's rounds that use my site. I go crazy with this stuff and enter information about every shot. I'll attach a link to this message when this feature is available unless you think it is inappropriate.
I took a scenery picture. I'll check it out and upload it if it turned out okay.
I played as a single today. The people I played with varied from being completely loud and obnoxious to quiet and polite. It's always fun to play with different people all of the time. Most people probably play with a small group and miss out on this.
Who else played this weekend? Got pictures?
