Course: North Shore GC
Irons: Srixon Pro 100
Ball: Srixon Z-Star
Nice day out and wanted to play North Shore to help boost some confidence. I remember last year I found some old golf notes and noticed that I struggle for some reason come June. I think part of it is due to the cycle that I've worked on my game, but here it is...just before June...and struggling again.
#1 - Hooked a driver into the greenside bunker. Bad lie. Good for that lie and just missed the birdie try (E)
#2 - Good 3-wood down the middle. Sorta funky lie and just hit a 1/2 9-iron on the fringe. Just missed the birdie (E)
#3 - Good driver down the left side. 9-iron to 20 feet. Saddle slope, drilled the birdie (-1)
#4 - Hooked a driver into the fairway bunker. Stupid 2nd shot. Tried to hit a 4-iron and it hit the lip and barely got out of the bunker. Punched it down there. SW to 20 feet. 2-putted for double (+1)
#5 - Bombed a driver down the middle. About 335 yards...almost drove the green. Hit a nice flop to 5 feet, but missed the birdie (+1)
#6 - Ugly 3-iron off the tee. Nice flop to 3-feet, made par (+1)
#7 - Hook driver down the left side. Good 3-wood. Good LW, but I just didn't get the spin. 2-putted for par (+1)
#8 - Nice PW to 20-feet (lots of wind). 2-putted for par. (+1)
#9 - Hooked a driver down the left side. Good 3-wood. So-so PW. 2-putted for par (+1)
#10 - Ugly driver that actually worked out okay. Flushed a PW at the flag, but it was about a yard from perfect and it spun off the green. Good Chip and kicked in for par (+1)
#11 - Big driver down the left side. Ugly 3-wood. Caught a flyer with a LW and then 2-putted for par (+1)
#12 - Good 3-wood down the middle. I was near the drain, but not stepping on it, so I had a very uphill lie. Hooked a 6-iron onto the green and just missed birdie (+1)
#13 - Hooked a driver down the middle, but the overhanging tree got in the way. Draw with a PW onto the green. 2-putted nicely up the top tier for par (+1)
#14 - Ugh. Pulled an 8-iron into the water. Dropped. Hit on, 2-putted for double (+3)
#15 - Big driver down the right side. Chickened out of a 3-hybrid into the green. Chipped on and made a 5-footer for birdie (+2)
#16 - Ugly 4-iron into the left rough. Nice PW to 15 feet, but made par (+2)
#17 - So-so 5-iron onto the green. Good read, but hit it too hard and made par (+2)
#18 - Hooked a driver almost O.B. Ugly 4-iron into the bunker. Bunker blast and 2-putts for bogey (+3)
THOUGHTS: Ugly weekend of golf. Struggled with the hooks here. Didn't hit the irons well today either. Plenty of work to do this week.
37-38=75 (+3)
