I would like to hear about where people play, good shots, bad scores, Birdies, eagles.....the dreaded triple bogies ( if I could only putt!) I certainly will be posting mine....The last round I played..... 103!

My next round is scheduled for June 27.

Hey you sound like me OS. I love to play!!!! I am great off the tee, usually hit it about 250yrds or so and my short game is good too, but my putting..... well. Say it's a par 5 375yrd hole. I can be on the green in 3 shots but 5 shots later I'll be in the hole. hahahahahah Putting bores me stiff so forget about more practice...
I could play golf everyday and never get sick of it. I'll share some funny stories later I'm off to a birthday party.

250 yards! You got me by 50 yards. I found I have lost a lot of distance since not playing much in the last 5 years. Another thing about getting older, good grief!
I cannot read a green no matter how long I stare at it. If I putted better, I am sure I could drop my score at least another 6 strokes.
I am looking forward to hear your funny stories. I have quite a few myself!

Have a great evening.

Looks like my next outing is July 11th. Anybody else been to the range or played? I think I am going through withdrawals! I wanna play! I have to get 6 more rounds in to get my handicap.

I am thinking about buying a new putter. Anyone have one they really like?

I am really bummed. Haven't gotten to play in awhile. I just might have to go to the driving range because it doesn't look like I can get to my league play until August 1!

I haven't tee'd up for years. Miss playing the game.
Back when I lived on Maui I got to play on Wailea Blue and Gold courses, Kapalua., the local at Wailuku, and of course Kahili. I went with the retirees who always needed a partner and they always picked up the fees and cart. That was all in the 90's. I had a piece of property in Crestone that has an executive course on it that was a trip. In the spring the Elk made cleaning up ones divot a nightmare, and the geese were always on holes 6 and 7 near the water hazards, and often they got a ball up the caboose for their lollygaging on the fairway.

I had a handicap of 20, not great but that's why I love golf, finding my inner mantra on the Tee, "just to meet not to kill".

Now I use the Wii LOL

Wow! I have never been to Hawaii, but I bet those courses are beautiful. One of my dream rounds would be to play Peeble Beach or TPC at Sawgrass.

Oh well, I did play 9 yesterday at the saddest little course, but it is inexpensive, $25 with a cart.
I had several great drives, though my distance is still shorter than it use to be. Only had one blow up hole, I call it my Tin Cup hole, over a ravine to the green.... 3 in the ravine and finally one pin high on the green. Fortunately nobody was behind us or I would not have done that.
I had a birdie too I chipped in from the rough with a 7 iron from about 20 feet. I did a happy dance
