Shot an 86 today. 41 on the front and a 45 on the back. I couldn't sink a fucking putt to save my life. I had the speed, but for some reason my putts are going off to the left.

I hate this fucking game, can't wait till tomorrow to try again.

First time I saw this, but the thread title alone made me laugh.

Ashy seems to have all the answers regarding grip, swing, what makes one 'slice', etc....

I'd look him up.

It's all better now, matter of fact it was better the next day.

I don't hate golf as much as I did a week ago, because I don't suck as much as I did a week ago. Two times out this week and the swing has started to come around, although I still didn't score. That'll come.

Got my new Burner irons this morning and had a nice session on the range. Next time out I go low.

Nice. I can't wait until I have some income to use on golf. Some day I'll get my Calloways. Until then, I guess these clubs from 1988 will have to do. lol

I feel you, Ryr. I've had some decent rounds this year but some I have fugged up with poor chipping/pitching. I've been trying to get cute with the 60 degree around the greens, but it ain't happening. I've screwed up many holes to thin and fat shots from only a few yards in, usually on par 5's. Great drive, nice approach, third over the green or 10 feet in front of me. I'm going back to the pitching wedge.

Yesterday I had 2 birdies and a flippin' 8.

he should change his shafts, that will fix all his problems.

how long did it take you to get fired from that job?

maybe it's time to think about joining the senior league.

Shot 79 today.

2 under after 5. Then hit 2 in the water and took a 9. 2 over. Finished the front at 4 over 40.
Took a 7 on a par 4 on the back and shot 39.

I still think it's coming together, but with 3 birdies I should have shot better than 79.

Shot a 38 on the way out, bogied the first and eighth hole and parred the rest, almost birdied nine, my chip hit the flagstick and bounced back.

Started the back nine but the mosquitos were so thick we just gave up and headed home.

I hate golf, I suck
 

88 today, probably lost about $30. When the games are set up on me shooting 76 or so I'm going to lose. I have no feeling, no touch, no swing, I'm thinking about buying a set of left handed clubs or maybe a fishing pole.

The only bright spot I see is that I can always enter the match play championship and maybe win c flight if I get my game back, since the scores I'm putting in will probably put me into at least c flight.

I don't know that my pride will allow me to play in c flight.

Damn, I knew your handicap was fairly low, but I didn't know it was around a 4. When you get it that low, you always need to bring your A game to win.

Look on the bright side, an 88 for me is a pretty good game.

You could always get some lessons from Gresh.

itll pass. seriously, how many times have you said this to yourself in your lifetime? probably a half a dozen, at least. at least youre fucking golfing, Im digging up and planting shrubs all goddamn weekend while my wife works and I try to watch the kids. ill take a kick in the nuts and an 88 over that any day of the week. http://www.sports-boards.net/forums/...ilies/wink.png

I'm an 8.5 handicap. The rating on my course is 68.5. Par is 70.

I need to shoot 76.

If I don't make adjustments I won't have to worry about that 8.5 handicap any more.
