I lost 6-3 with nine push holes to someone with 0.6 "worse" HCi ... both same age, both swing left. Can't complain I guess as his score was only four better and I have been playing for five years, him all his life.
I let him kick two out of trouble (less than a club), he let me kick one. I gave him 2-3 putts in the 4' range. He gave me none. Lesson learned.
Pass the gravy.

I've set a goal to break 80 by the end of the year. I think it's attainable.

I've set a goal to break 80 by the end of the year. I think it's attainable. Right there with you. Coming up on five years playing and I've gone from HCI of 67 to 14.5. Shot 82 three times and no better. HCI has come down from 19 to 14.5 in 2024. Need that 79. I'll try again today.
Pass the gravy.

I just started playing rounds regularly the last three weeks. Im gonna try and play weekly from here on out. Our 9 hole Wednesday night scrabble ends in two weeks. It's a lot of fun but not quite the same as a round of golf. I need to play more rounds.

Aside from 9 holes played right handed in 1991 or 1992, I never played until October 2019 so I am happy with mid-80's but I want more.

Wife & I played the Par 3 course last night at the OMNI PGA Frisco. Par is 30, shot a 32 and wife shot a 37. You only need to carry 3 clubs...Putter, W and maybe a SW.
I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect.

82 today but could of been better but greens are trash and to top it off, they sanded the greens heavily. I struggled getting putts to the hole. All pars and bogeys with one double. Personal best for me, still need to break 80 by the end of the year

Interesting round today, 43-37 @ Brookhaven CC, 4, 3 putts and only one birdie. I'm usually good for a couple a round, but not the day of my 82..... it was strange for sure. Heading out tomorrow for our golf outing. We are playing The Raven, Burnt Pines, and Raggata Bay. I'm just hoping for good weather.

Shot 90 the first time and 91 the second today. 34 putts the first time, 28 the second. Do with that what makes sense. Guess I'm getting at least four rounds in this weekend.

DFW area golfers…Heritage Ranch in McKinney is in great shape. Played yesterday, shot an 87, wife shot a 92.
I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect.

Terrible round today, I drove the ball like a boss but had all kinds of trouble finding my distances. 50 on the front with a 43 on the back. back to the drawing board, the girls will be playing with us tomorrow at the Raven. :

How did Vaaler treat you? That place is always in great condition, but boy will it keep you humble.
I played Buckhorn for the first time last month, it's in pretty good condition.

I played Buckhorn for the first time last month, it's in pretty good condition. Vaaler was very nice, just have to play a little smarter about shot placement. Course was in great condition except one green was blown up, 80% sand covered. Buckhorn wow what a great place to get your game back on track, wide open and in great condition!
