Played St. Anne's CC in Feeding Hills MA yesterday. A decent public muni. Played well but fucked up the last two holes...story of my life. Par 72, I was at +7 on the 17th tee. Bogey, Double finish for an 82.

The remarkable thing was playing with my friend and area golf legend Jim Peace. He shot an 83 and he turns 86 soon. Always a joy to watch the swing that won our club Championship ten times including a 6 year streak from '69 to '75. He's shot his age every year since turning 70!

First tee....

@NEhomer that is totally way cool re Mr. Peace... you're lucky to have him as a friend

played my best round of golf ever yesterday with a 85. Had a 39 on the front, 46 on the back.

only had one blow up hole with a snowman that I really should have played smarter instead of trying to thread a ball through some trees after going into a hazard on my drive off the tee...dumb.

That is the single biggest key in making the jump from shooting 90 to shooting 80.

Eliminate doubles and worse. Take your medicine when you get in trouble and don't take those big numbers.

I knew my first tee shot was gone so I hit a provisional from the tee and put it right in the middle of the fairway. I should have just used that ball because where I dropped where I went into the hazard left no options.

Playing Sunday morning and then my club's scheduled to aerate the greens on Monday.

....that'll be the end of our immaculate conditioning for the year

played the rural course with the great-assed barmaid today...
was 42° when we teed off at 10:45am; was 60° at the turn...
glorious clear windless day; had the course to ourselves...
only problem was all the greens had just been aerated and sanded*...
despite which, was amazing how many great putts everybody had...

1st hole - on in 2, took 4 putts. Held +2 thru the next 11 holes. Had a double plunk 7 on par 4 #13 and a bird on #18. 76 for the round.

lol... and I was the high hitter...
Mike and Randy both shot straight par 72s (whined and bitched the whole time); Jake went -1.

* was dew on the first 4 greens... putted balls would become little sputniks by picking up rings of fine sand and taking some radical rolls.

Hey guys, y'all might want to get one of these with fall golf upon us. Just picked it up from Amazon for under 50 bucks. It's a little bigger than a pack of smokes, very lightweight and it blows a very powerful blast. Meant for electronics, it's perfect for blowing leaves off your line!

It also throws a nice blast for cooling down with in the hot weather. Battery life is decent but no concern to me 'cause I have a Zip Navigator Ecart that it plugs into for continuous charging.

Your hand looks very feminine.

This time of year, if the green is covered, it's no worse than a 2 putt. Not just leaves are a problem, some of the greens and little seeds imbedded in them from people walking on them, no idea what which way your ball is going to go. Ball looks like a fucking jumping bean.
