The Sand Trap: for Players, Hackers and Duffers

Yep that pic you sent is pretty darn close
 
played in the wind and cold yesterday. fixed my iron shots, which had been outside-in the past two weeks. my take away was not straight back, was bring club back to inside to early. won $60. closet to pin and two skins and my team won the 9 hole shambles.
 
After a week of nice dry weather the typical temperate rain forest weather returned.
Last 3 rounds it’s rained but we needed some.
91-blues. 79-whites and 6 over after 14 holes from the whites when we stopped yesterday. Could’a been a contender.
Won $10 for the 79.

Wild final round/playoff finish to the PGA tournament @ Southern Hills.
It ain’t ever over till it’s over.
 
Winner JT shanked his tee shot on a par 3 and got lucky it didn’t find the creek, then hits a tree & ball goes into a trap ~100yds away, made a long putt for a bogey and won it all later in a playoff.
These are the best golfers in the world.
 
Just back from our 2 youngest grandaughters commencements : UMASS last weekend , UVM this past weekend .Ten of us spent last 4 days at a nice waterfront hotel in Burlington and had a great time .
Played today , it was brutal . I shot a fugly 42 had a bad double 7 , and my iron play was erratic and it usually isnt ...

Just need to get some practice in , and the groove will come

84 yesterday. Missed some short putts but irons are looking better. What a glorious weather day it was.
84 for me too yesterday. Lost $2.
Started drawing the ball into the left rough. Misses before with the driver were right.
Need to find the fairways as grass is thick after last week’s rain. Not getting much roll.
Great day for a walk and planting a couple dozen tomato plants.
