16th....370 but tees are up with the whites and they seem to me up too....hmmm.....maybe 320 to green? probably cant drive it without a fantastic kick but should be pitch and putt territory. im bringing out driver.

crushed, but kicked into nasty rough. about 40 yards of nasty crap. if it rolled down fairway i think it would have been easy bird. pulled slightly.

17th hole....180 yard par 3. pin is up 165 to pin. hit an easy 6 iron and fanned it a little, good thing cuz i ended up pin high but 50 feet from hole in fringe.
hit a putt downhill snaking right to left that STOPPED 1 FOOT FROM HOLE!!!! GGGRRR. Tapped in for par.
-------
18th hole, dark out. 381 with an offset tee box. play for a little draw and felt like i hit a toe draw. too dark couldnt see ball at all. figured id be around 100 yard marker and was. lasered to 105 from rough to back pin on an uphill green. 53 should get there with a hard thump.
hit it well a little low cuz of rough and kicks up to 12 feet. easy uphill left to right breaker, i knew this was a makeable putt.
PLOP....Rolled right in.
im tired, going home. will post up scorecard when i get home.

Front 9: 1 over [1 birdie, 2 bogeys, 6 pars]
Back 9: 3 under [3 birdies, 0 bogeys, 6 pars]
Fairways: 6/14 43%
Greens: 10/18 56%
Putts: 25
So a nice round of 70; God knows when i'll do that again. This is not the norm for me. I guess the time away from golf and practicing and playing helped. I just went out there and played; tweaked my swing a bit through the front 9 and played a great back 9. Now I'm at a crossroads, do i continue to play a bunch of golf this summer and try to break into the 60s which i have only done a few other times or call it a summer and just say, well best round might as well just happened and simply ride my Ducati around now.
We'll see; i think I'll go play at least a few more times. Feels good to play well and it gave me a new itch to scratch.
-------------------------
Again, this isn't how i play all the time LOL. I don't think i shot under par at all last year and very few were in the 70's. I hit it "OK" at the first GTE in D.C, when i wasn't coming under the sweetspot trackman said i was reaaaaalllllllyy neutral with a lot of 0's.
While answering posts and reading through the winter and spring, i figured out through the "Flying Left Arm Wedge Video" brian did that my whole problem was simply i over-rotated it. I have done it for a while and i just made a conscious effort today to simply NOT DO THAT. Last time i saw brian too my shoulder turn got too flat so i steepened it. So those two things combined had me hitting decent balls at lessons earlier this year so i figured i'd be ok today.
So i guess my pattern right now "feels" a lot like soft draw but not sure what it looks like and i won't know what it looks like because i'm paranoid of seeing my swing on video; don't laugh i am. Maybe i'll get to see brian or kevin before summer is over and get some time on a trackman to check out my numbers and see how i'm hitting driver. I don't think i'm hitting up on it enough and i'm giving up yardage.
This was fun but maybe if i do it again i should get a twitter account and do that LOL.
Night all.
