4 over again tonight for 9 holes. Feel like I've hut this score a lot recently.
I think reading putts is probably my most costly error. That 8-15 foot range, I just don't make any. I hit bogies and pars, could easily be more pars and some birdies. Will talk to the club pros about this. Any brilliant advice from anyone here?

The vast majority of us miss on the low side. It wouldn’t take much after each round to think about each of these putts and ask yourself where the misses were. You might be able to identify a pattern.

And again, for most of us, the problem isn’t not making 8-15 footers, it’s 3 stabbing from there.

Great golf. Which course is that?

Lang Lang GC

Nice.
Reckon you’ll cop a 1 stroke extra handicap penalty for that.

Yep sure did. Played off 23 today instead of my usual 25/26

 

[ScrappyCoCo]

15 over today at Wav public. Not enough GIR or Fairways hit. 32 putts (no 3s). Work to do.

 

[peternorth]

Peninsula kingwood yesterday. just a score and just a round. Struggled on the greens. Been a while at the complex, putted like a novice

 

[ITCHY EYEBALLS]

Pulled the pin after 10 holes today.
Too cold, wet and windy.

When you hit the ball onto the green in reg, do you take the putter out and walk the fairway?

I have an mgi, so when I can yes

Taking the glove off after the shot is enough of a boss move!

What other club would you take out?

None.

Glove off yes, putter doesn't come out until greenside though

 

[Livonski]

28pts.
Black tees (Now called Brass!)
Not good enough off the tee although did birdie 12 which was waaaay back.
Mark Allen gave me a putting tip and yips are gone.
Tuck shirt under armpit, hold it in with your left arm. Forces you to putt with shoulders, no hands.

Walk straight to the next tee so I can leave my bag there.

What are the names of the other tees?

Maybe tees should be differentiated by clubhead speeds? Club pro tests you before you go out and then, "Ah sir, today you will be off the 85mph tees".

Actually, take it one step further. Make people carry a mark on their bags that prohibits them from going off inappropriate tees.

Basically switched them to the club colours. Yellow, Light blue, Navy, Brass.
I think the stigma of playing off the reds is being whittled away. Keeps blokes playing longer and having fun when they can't hit so far anymore. Many now do play off the front tees. Helps with pace of play also.

I must confess i only say navy and yellow when i played last.

in any case, my club has moved from red tees to another colour. some have complained asking why the change? They then add "id never play off the reds (ladies) anyway)"

I tried to change the forward tee colour to something other than Red at my club ten years ago (as no male would play from them).

 

[ScrappyCoCo]

15 over. 3 doubles and a triple. Got to remove this stink from my round. (be happy with bogies and maybe 1 double) Working hard on my driving at the moment and might have found a little something. Happy to sacrifice some distance for accuracy.

 

[Bicco]

4 over for 9. Again. Spoke to one of the Pro's about a lesson on reading putts. Hopefully do that in the next few weeks. Game is good without being great. Have lost bit of the zest I had a few weeks ago, but haven't lost my game completely which is good.

I'm headed to the Mornington Peninsula for a 3 day golf trip tomorrow. Carts are included for each course each day.

Is it appropriate for me to forgo a cart and choose to walk whilst the other three ride?

Depends where and which course.

Moi personally walk. Enjoy the walk!

Then again, if carts are included, its like use it or lose it. BUT, if you're a walker, and you're more comfy walking, walk

 

[Lebbo73]

**** that, that’s extra walking.

I often do. Unless it's a resort course with 100m between tees. At Lonsdale a few weeks ago I walked while they carted.

 

[Bicco]

Mate, I'm skipping to the green, putter in hand and a smile on my face. 6th a Royal Freo is a great one for this. Tiimmbo placing your bag next to the 7th tee, walking down hill, putter in hand, talking loudly about your upcoming birdie putt. Good times.

Holy shit, Mark Allen is a lifesaver. Any tips for the yips when chipping? I’ve got an essential tremor, hereditary on my Dad’s side, that I believe is part of the reason why I got the yips about 13 years ago.
