The Sand Trap: for Players, Hackers and Duffers

[sig]

sig : yeah i get your comment

I play ALOT and practice every day so i expect to play well , and when i dont , i laugh it off but know i screwed up and today the number was ok but the consistency sucked

i have trouble with the practice part. it is boring.

Yeah I know but as a former college basketball coach I know practice makes perfect ,but then again I MAY be anal retentive ????

Just back from a crazy round this am .

So I finished with par and a Bird to literally SAVE a 39.

Attaboy ?
Birdie finishes always keep ya coming back.
Sometimes golf throws ya a bone.

Only thing practiced is putting and hitting shots into the kiddy pool at home.
The only time spent on the range is to get warmed up.
Usually do that by swinging a couple clubs.
Rather just go play golf and walk around.

I’m a 12 right now. Would love to get to a single digit. If I retire on a golf course I can see more practice in my future.

Shot yet another 39 this am at the shorter inland course I play .Was a pretty stiff breeze today, so had to adjust .6 pars ,but one double when I tried to cut the corner over the trees ,the pond and woods on a dogleg right .I have regularly made this shot all season but NOT today " kerplunk " couldn't see it BUT heard it ?

Ran into foul weather on The Riverside course this am .Poured rain for the last 5 holes .

Glad I had a rainsuit in the bag and was in a cart .

Shot a 40 ,which in these conditions was ok .Chipped two very very close ,other than that nothing special.

Ryder Cup in Wisconsin is interesting.
Who’s gonna win?
Usually some drama appears.
Today is windy and folks are hitting good shots.
It’ll most likely come down to who makes the most big putts.
