Saturday was a busy golf day. I started the day off with a drive to St. Augustine for a one hour lesson at the Tour Academy, followed by a drive back home, followed by a drive out to Deland to play at Victoria Hills with some friends.
The lesson was awesome, again. After adjusting to a [...]

I played two rounds this past weekend, but I only kept score for one. I recorded a 76 for that one, and you can view the scorecard at my oobgolf page.
My GIR was better this round. I was able to hit my approach shots on target to get on the green. And when I didn’t [...]

I had my first private lesson this past Friday. We focused on my swing since my accuracy for approach shots has been pretty poor (as is evident by my less than 40% GIR rate).
We started on the range for a few shots before heading into the bay for video analysis. I think video analysis is [...]

I haven’t been keeping up with the blog very well the last two weeks, but that’s probably because I’ve been busy golfing!
Last post I recapped last week and how I finished off Sunday with a 78 (+6) round of golf. Well, I did better this week. You can see my scorecards on oobgolf:
Tuesday, Indigo Lakes: [...]

It’s been a full golf weekend – and really a full golf week. So much golf that I’ve had trouble keeping up with it on this blog.
To start, the 9-hole Tuesday round went fairly well as I shot a 43. It could have been, or really should have been, less than 40. I’m still in the [...]

Since it’s been raining every afternoon, I’ve been practicing my putting indoors. That’s not really an issue as long as I remember to grab my putter whenever I go play a round.
Well yesterday I forgot to do that, and I played a round without my putter. I was able to use my playing partner’s putter, [...]

My Sunday round went okay with a 12-over par 84 (click the link to see the scorecard). It’s considered above my average score, according to oobgolf, but it’s not where I want to be.
In fact, if it wasn’t for the double bogey on Hole 2 or the triple bogey on Hole 3, it would have been [...]

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 start, as usual. I was +4 after the first two holes. It didn’t really get better [...]

I played a full round at Turnbull Bay today. My round started as Cink and Watson went into a playoff at the Open – the two guys I was pulling for ended up battling for the win. Great story.
Anyway, overall, I’m not happy with the results, but throughout the round I had moments of excellent play, which [...]

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 off memory I hit 3 greens in regulation, which translated into my three pars for the [...]
