My rd went so-so, front 9 couldn't get a lot going & driver was hot & cold and ended up with a big fat 47. Hit the turn and the game started coming back to me, driver was working great again. BTW I was using the Burner today.
Anyways to make a long story even longer, well ok maybe not as long, came up to the 15th hole which has an elevated tee box & is a 536 yd dogleg left. It's the longest hole on the course & I have never played the back 9 here before. It's a forced carry off the tee box of about 200 yds, they even have a sign posted telling you where the drop area is. Anyways I am a bit nervous since my longest drive of the day so far had been just a touch over 240yds & I had a few that probably wouldn't even have cleared that lousy 200 yds. I pull out a D2 feel, line myself up & swing nice & smooth as if I know what I am doing. The ball easily carries the wasteland & keeps going & going & going before finally settling down on the left edge of the fairway right at the dogleg.
Say to myself "self, that was a damn fine drive" & give myself a high 5 get down to the ball & I have 239 yds left to the pin....holy shit I have to do the math twice, 297 yd drive!? I had better quit this game right now because I doubt that will ever happen again & I will be back to my usual 220-230 crap.
