So I've been serious about wanting to get good at golf. I played years ago, maybe 3-4 times a year. Just hackin with whatever clubs I rented/borrowed.
April of this year rolls around, and I've played a few more time and wanted to play seriously. Bought a used set of clubs, and beinga natural ho' started dealin' and wheelin' and tried some other stuff out.
I've got my bag set(yeah right) and I've been playing every week, and every weekend. Averaging atleast 27 holes a week since May, give or take for some weekends I was busy.
I play right. I take my stroke and distance. I add for my drops. If I top it, I play it, woods, I re tee and hit 3, the whole deal.. Obviously if I suck atleast be honest, and when I'm good I can be legit.
I wrote it all down today, played 18 after work with some other guys I met around the 4th hole. Started off great, +3 after 4.. Went down and came back up good at the end.
I shot a 90.. Par 72. Decent score lately. Been playing with 90ish for a few weeks now.
Score:90
Birdies:1
GIR:8
FIR:11 (big time for me)
Putts:33
Sand saves:2
Penalty: 1 stroke(had to take a drop, ball was behind a tee in the brush and unhittable)
Chipped one in from 20 yards, had a 1 putt from the fringe from around 18 feet.
GIR was good I thought I missed a par 3- 175yard just right for the GIR.
My second shots were a bust mostly. I need work with downhill lies, and work with my 5wood off the deck in said lies.
My par 5's KILLED me. Bogey and Double bogey on two that I can remember were just crap.
My putting saved me some serious shots, and my chipping with in and out depending on the hole.
I'm okay being a hacker.. I just might hold off on the betting for another 10 strokes I need to shave.
