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.

our rough is US open caliber in places. Course is having trouble finding staff so they can't keep up with mowing. thank god it wasn't wet.
 
87 yesterday from the blues. No doubles but tons of bogeys.
Almost a 2 club wind with not much roll.
Won the match and got a nice walk in.
Could’ve putted better as was playing too much break or leaving putts short.
Greens are getting better but still not there yet. Another couple weeks and they should be fine.
2 person 2 day scramble coming this weekend.
Should be fun.
 
Did OK 1st day. 82 from the backish blues.
Bet $50 to double the money in the pro shop on a 165 year downhill par 3 with the green sloping away.
1st time in a couple years the ball stayed on.
Teed off after the rain so stayed dry but the course played long.
We get to play again tomorrow with the same usual suspects we played with today.
Food, fun, golf, prizes.
 
Both courses mondo busy today so i bagged it , will try again tomorrow
 
Someone made an Albatros in the tournament for the only skin out on the second day. Skin paid >$1K.
We had about 180 yards in on the par 5 for our third shot and got up an down for a par and thought we did well on that hole.
It’s the #1 handicap hole.
We didn’t place in the top 3 but had a fun time trying.
Greens were much faster yesterday and a couple pins were in tough places.
Going out again today and moving on up to the white tees.
Golfing is fun.

Grass is really thick now. Not much bounce. If ya can fly it in the air it’s what ya get.
I’m about golfed out for a bit. Walked 18 5 of the last 6 days.
Irons sucked today for some reason, maybe because all we hit in the tournament were hybrids or woods into most of the holes.
 
I'm sucking with irons now too .Guess I start using my 2,3,4,and 5 hybrids .Can use em choaked up for approaches and bump n run
