Course: Eastwood GC
Ball: Srixon Z-Star
Stimp: 8
Eastwood today in 65-70 degree weather. Another breezy day with a slight mist. It's one of those days you start wishing for summer.
#1 - Hybrid down the middle and flushed PW onto the green. Played it at 12 inches left with it double-breaking, but it didn't break as much as I initially thought. Made par (E)
#2 - Good driver down the right side. Tough lie and caught a 3-wood a little heavy, but okay. Hit a LW onto the green and 2-putted for par (E)
#3 - Hit a good 6-iron onto the green. Too much speed on the 1st putt, but made the 3-foot comebacker for par (E)
#4 - Decent drive, but it pushed right and didn't leave me with a shot. Hit a SW into the fairway and then another SW to 10-feet and drained the par putt (E)
#5 - Pull draw into the left rough. Missed the green with an 8-iron and hit the pin on a chip. Surprised it didn't go in and made par (E)
#6 - Over-draw into the fairway bunker. Good fairway bunker shot into the fairway. Punched a 5-iron onto the green. 2-putted for par (E)
#7 - Good driver into the fairway. Just missed the green. Easy up and in for par (E)
#8 - Hit a good 5-iron to 15-feet. Just missed teh birdie and made par (E)
#9 - This driver, into the wind...went nowhere. But, in the fairway. Hit a hybrid onto the green. Then drained the 20 foot putt and made a birdie (-1)
#10 - Here I just wanted to play conservatively. I hit a good drive and 3-wood. Then I had a 4-iron and over-cooked. I then hit a good pitch from about 40 yards to 10-feet and made the par. (-1)
#11 - Another hole, with the wind in our face that I wanted to play conservatively. Hit a driver nicely into the fairway and a 4-iron onto the green. Bad putt, but made par (-1)
#12 - Flushed a 3-iron onto the green. Tough putt and I didn't make a good one and made par (-1)
#13 - Decent 3-wood off the tee down the middle. Flushed a 5-iron that missed the green. Tough chip, but got it within reasonable range and made par (-1)
#14- Wind was in our face and I tried to hit a low 4-iron and put it by the bunker. Bad pitch and missed the putt and made bogey (E)
#15 - Good 3-wood down the middle. Hit a good PW onto the green. Just missed the birdie and made par (E)
#16 - Pull-draw driver into the left rough. Tough lie and a tough shot that I hit fat. Then I hit a 8-iron onto the green and 2-putted for par (E)
#17 - Big driver down the right side. Hit a PW onto the green. big-breaker that I had the line, but not enough speed (E)
#18 - Another pull-draw into the crap. Punched out. Hit a good LW to 8-feet, but missed the par save (+1)
THOUGHTS: Some rough shots, but my day was better by making some putts. Afterwards I got on the range and my swing is looking pretty good. I think next week I'm going to incorporate some of the downswing pieces I wanted to work on. I was also -1 from the Danger Zone
35-38=73 (+1)
8/14 fwy
11/18 GIR
29 putts
