Re: Gohan's Journal

Well today I went to another tournament at Los Lagos G.C. In the morning I bought 4 Gatorades for 6 dollars at my golf clubhouse before we left. Last year I would usually play there for tournaments. We'd play the back 9. Well I teed off and I bogied the first hole which is a par 5. I forgot my sand wedge next to the bunker and I didn't realize it until the next green. I sort-of ran 400 yds. foward and back and I felt like throwing up because I am sort-of out-of -shape. I went on and played the rest of the front 9 (I had never played these before) and I got a 58. I lost like 4 balls on the front nine. We moved to the back nine and I never lost a ball. I used the same one from the 10th tee to the 18th green. I got my first par in my life on a par 4 (pathetic huh?) and I went on to get a 50 on the back nine. So total I got a 108!! To think I did worse at my home golf course than at another . Oh and on the 12 hole, the cart girl came and I bought 2 more Powerades of 2 dollars each. So I guess I had enough fluids for the back 9. I thought I wouldn't buy any more so I said to myself 2 on the front and 2 on the back. Well it turns out 2 on the front and 4 on the back! I think that's why I didn't do so well at the other golf tournament. At first I thought I would be very tired by the 13th hole but I wasn't. I didn't feel tired until I sat down in my mom's car. On one shot with my sand wedge I could have made a birdie if it had rolled only 2 more inches. Then it would be my first birdie in my life. All day my leg was getting scratches every time I put on my bag. I never knew what it was until the 18th tee. I went into my bag to get a ball and I found out that the brush was the culprit. Well at least the very wirey part. I have about 6-7 scratches.
BTW do you guys know any good drills to help me rotate my hips instead of swaying. I tend to sway in the downswing. When I got the Sumo, the person told me that I was swaying and that I need to rotate my hips. Any input would be nice.
