Had two eagle...

[Ballboy534]

... attempts yesterday, both from ~ 40 feet. Ended up with two birdies, but those were literally the only two holes worth mentioning. All this rain this summer has really killed whatever short game I had; I shot 96 and don't think I one putted at all

Played Sat...40-46...no birdies, 8 pars, 2 triples on the back killed an otherwise decent round.

The worst part is, I didn't shoot worse than a 6 on any hole; not sure that's ever happened before. Problem was I probably had 8 or 9 of them

can't be as bad as me....... I've driven a par 4 green twice (both times with in 10-12 feet) and what did I get.....pars!!!!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

That is unusual, but it won't take many 6s to wreck a card...I broke my round down because I was kind of frustrated at the results. Although fairway was a premium I played my 2nd shot on all 13 driving holes...10 FWs hit...but gir was terrible, 5...putted decent at times (6 one putt grns, 4 to save par)..then badly at times...2 3 jacks, one a 360 lipout.

AGIR...(around the green in reg) my true game barometer...lol...14 of 18 holes...I hit 2 really bad 2nd shots and there went the round.

Weekend player, so it will be a few days now before I'm out there again...will get out and chip n putt at least once during the week.

My putting was horrendous; I had two great sand shots from green side bunkers to within 10-15 feet. I honestly don't think I one putted anything... I need to practice

When your speed is off putting can be a bear...I make my share 6' and in, but wimping out on the little curlers can burn....I need to hit more GIR...50% would be ideal at this point.

Over the years, I have lost confidence in my short puts, less than two feet. For some reason, I can drain the heck out of putts longer than 15 feet. My confidence seems to be so much better the further away I am.

Nice job with the two birdies; that's nothing to sneeze at. 96? now,that's a different story. You got some work to do.

I practice more putts from 6' and in, then 30-40' lags, 10'-20' range the least amount, which is most of my birdie efforts...no wonder I don't make many birdies.
