for 9 holes, of course... 1 bird... a nice drive to the left rough left me 86 yds in.. nice 60* to 2 inches.. tap in birdie...

now i had a nice round... i could have easily broken 30 thats how nice is was, no joke... i missed birdie putts on 1 from 4 ft, 2 ill get to in a sec, 3 is the hole i birdied, 4 i had a nice up and down for par, 5 missed a 5 ft putt for bird after a bomb of a drive, 6 i missed a 7 ftr for bird after driving it into the greenside bunker and making a nice bunker shot..(bunker play is usually the weakness of my game) 7 i missed a 5 ftr for birdie, 8 i missed a 9 ftr for birdie, and 9 i missed a 12 ftr for birdie... so that makes 7/9 GIR...

that means i missed 6/7 of the birdie putts i had... and they were an average of 7 feet for the birdie putts i missed... wow... my putter was off...

so how did i manage a 35?? well on 2 a par 3 146 or w/e, i bladed my 9 iron, and was on the back fringe... i hit the worst chip ever with my 52*, it carried 5ft PAST the pin, and rolled 10 feet off the green... then i proceeded to chip it to 3 ft and miss the freaking putt.. double bogey..ARGGG!!

it was nice to come back with a bird though...

whats the par ?


34... no par 5's...:( the designer just ran out of room... thay are thinking about changing the last hole into a par 5, by adding more yardage onto it... currently it plays at 425 or something.. and it is the most likely candidate, because it being the 9th hole has quite a bit of a walk to the clubhouse... probable close to 100-150 yds of room... if they were to get rid of one of the 2 practice putting greens though...

seriously, find a new course to play. playing a tougher course will help your game a lot. whats the fun in shooting a 77 which on a real course would be 81 ? breaking 80 wouldnt even be a challenge at our caps (pretty much the same) try out a par 71-72 with a solid slope, and itll help you a lot.

you wanna buy a mil-spec?

ha, i would have bought a cameron a long time ago, if had any sort of money..:(

camerons are my guilty pleasure to look at, and to lowball bid on, and to on course demo with the intent of not even thinking of buying it....

thats where i shot my 68... 2 over, 2 under for a even par 68... and where i made my first ever birdie... memories there...

but thats not even my main course... i play falls road, and break 80 with a challenge, but it is too expensive to play every time... so i have to play the easy course sometimes...

In my area you can score a Cameron of craigslist for the price of a new 2-ball with ease. At one point last year there was a guy trying to move a Circa '62 #3 for like two months. It looked to be a in great condition and he only wanted like 170 for it. I almost bought the damn thing on principle alone.

i know, but still too much... i am very poor... i got my white steel 2 ball for $35 plus shipping on ebay...

as much as i love camerons, i just cant explain spending over $100 for a putter...
