Problem is, about 4-5 drives then when I'm lined up to play the slice it does dead straight I played this morning, and one of my buddies hits an awful slice, but he still smokes it, and it's consistent. There were 2 dog-leg right holes on this course, which were.....ahem....."Taylor-Made" for him, and he ripped both of his drives left into the woods. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said "I can’t hit a fade without snap hooking it” then proceeded to do just that. Still hit the fairway but the second shot was 300 yards into the green 😆 Its a reachable par 5 if you can be middle - right fairway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Omega Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 I'm no fan of Rory's, but I don't know that that's necessarily a diss. I didn't think DeChambreaux had it in him, but he proved me wrong on a very difficult golf course. Good for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hputenis Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 I played on Saturday in a group of 8 and brought a bottle of Skrewball and snuck it in the cooler. It was gone by the 3rd hole because of the 7 other vultures. I shot a "ukn 56 on the front (worst 9 holes I have played since I can remember) and a 40 on the back. It was like I never picked up a golf club in my life on the front, and I honestly don't even know what I did to correct it on the back other than "My swing felt 10x better."

Yeah I’m trying to get there. I don’t usually drink liquor on the course, but the situation called for it. 5-6 beers is my happy place in golf. Once I add liquor or get to 8-9 the wheels fall off.

DBW Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 84 today. Rain was a factor. It was downpour for about 3 holes. We couldn’t even see the flag on a par 3 😂 I almost launched a 6i into orbit. Aside from 2 double bogeys on those 3 holes I played well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hputenis Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 My wife and I are celebrating our 1 year anniversary next week, and we're headed to Cancun for a week. I have a tee time for next Wednesday morning by myself at the golf course attached to the hotel, and the wife will get hammered and drive the cart. Tough to find a lot of pictures of this course, but there should be a number of holes right along the Caribbean. https://atelierdehoteles.com/atelier-estudio-playa-mujeres-golf/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one that sticks out the most was when I played Valderrama. It was quite windy which made it tougher but I putt very very well and still had 40 putts. Chipping/putting are the most consistent parts of my game and where I usually am ahead of the guys I'm playing against. I rarely 3 putt but on a course like Valderrama I had plenty of them and 4 putt the 1st green after getting on in regulation. None of those 4 putts were bad putts either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrPhilly Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 I've managed to steady things a bit and have been in the 83-87 range the last several times out. Age is creeping up though. I made a little adjustment opening up my left foot a bit at address and that's allowed me to clear my hips and eliminate the mix of push/hook that I'd fallen into. Today sucks. Rain has cancelled golf and the Eagles don't play until after 2am. No way I'm staying or getting up for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
