The Sand Trap: for Players, Hackers and Duffers

[tirolski]

what happened to pacing off the distances? my stride is basically a yard. i have the Garmin golf watch. it tells me front, middle, back. look at watch, check the wind and grab a club. easy peasy

That’s what I did.
Greens are smallish and they top dressed and rolled em.
We played a dots skin game.
1$ birdies, 1$ greenies on the par 5s and 3s and $1 sandies. Each dot was worth a buck.
I might have been medalist in our group
Coulda been a contender but still wouldn’t have qualified for the Senior Women’s Amateur even if I identified as one for the day.
It’s gonna be played this year in Anchorage Alaska.

We also play polies. If you make a par putt from outside the length of the flag you get a dot. I like action. may have a minor gambling problem.

we play another game on Tuesdays before our league starts. If you one putt you get a playing card. If you two putt you get nothing. If you three putt you put $3 in the pot. Winning poker hand wins the pot. it is a game everyone can play regardless of your handicap. i actually think it is more of an advantage to be a high handicapper. You don't hit as many greens and are more likely to chip it close from just off the green.

Phil with a 4 putt from 12 foot. How much do ya gotta throw into the kitty for a 4 putt?
14 putts in the 1st 6 holes. 6 over after 9.
He should try it right handed.
It’s his birthday.
I bet a drink with a friend he won’t make the cut.
The Yuengling will be tasty.

86 from the blues today with a lost ball I never saw but the others said I'd have a clear shot to the green.
1 bird. It was hot, windy and humid. 4 hr 40 hour round in the 18 hole league. Lost 10-8. Putting ain’t the problem.
Greens weren’t cut since before the tourney yesterday.

White tees tomorrow with the usual suspects.
We usually play golf in 3 and a half.

Best round of the season this am : Even par 35 , thrill of the day a 42 footer for a bird on the last hole . Beautiful day mid 70's , sunny , 10 mph breeze . Pin settings today were " friendly" no ball busters
