It’s that time of week. Today I shot an 8 over-par 44 for the 9-hole round for the second week in a row. Shooting 40 is just around the corner! I feel like I played better than my score indicates, though. I … Continue reading

Concentration

The round at Turnbull went so-so. I played well at times, but my ability to concentrate on every shot for every hole was poor. The end-result was a 14-over par 86. You can see my scorecard by clicking here. It was a slow … Continue reading

Rest

Quick update. Yesterday I went through a quick practice (2 hours is considered quick) of chipping, pitching, putting, and finally the range. Overall a good practice, but by the time I got to the range I was having a hard … Continue reading

Worst round in a while

That was a humbling experience. LPGA International beat me up pretty bad. I scored a 98. The worst round I’ve had since May, before I started playing better. My stats were pretty rough, but I didn’t get the scorecard so … Continue reading

Practicing

Tomorrow morning we play at LPGA International, the world headquarters of the LPGA in Daytona Beach. I’ve never played there before, but someone from work has a round discount that a bunch of us are going to use. I’ve heard … Continue reading

Tuesday 9-Hole Golf

Well, the Tuesday golf is getting better, but I’m not “satisfied”. I shot a 45 today, which is my best round for one of these Tuesday outings in a long time, but I know I can do better. That’s the … Continue reading
