Well I've been a bit to lazy to keep up with my journal for the past 2 months. Well let me tell you the last golf tournament I went to. On the first nine I got a 46 (par 32) and on the back I got a 58 (par 37). On the first hole (par 5) I lost my ball in the thick, thick grass to the left so I maxed out on that hole. The second hole (par 3) I decided not to try to muscle it with my 6 iron because to the right was a street. So I used my 3 hybrid and did a smooth and relaxed swing. I miss the flag to the right by 10 yds. and I got my self into the bunker. I made bogey there. The third hole (par 4) my drive went straight to a house window

. So I played another shot sice that was OB. Luckily, the house had fenced of the windows so incase a ball like mine came around, it wouldn't break the window. I really don't remember that well because the tournament happened 1 month ago. I think I got double bogey. Well the next hole (par 4) I was the only one who landed their ball in the fairway with the driver! That made me feel good. Well, on the next shot I got myself into the greenside bunker. I got it out and I 2 putted andI got a bogey. The next hole was really something. It was a dog-leg right par 4 with water filling the right side of the dog-leg. I HIT A PALM TREE WITH MY DRIVE. I really thought that I got myself into the water. When I got to where I think I lost my ball, I found my ball 20 yds. from the hole!. I got my second par. I also got my third par on that course. On the 16th hole par 4, I got my ball stuck to the right of the left water hazard. Since I didn't want to drop, I hit it lefty with my club upside down. My ball went straight to the right about 30yds. Atleast I got myself into the fairway. There were other things that happened in the tournament but I won't go into specifics because I think I wrote too much. After the tournament, the second hole at my home course I got my first birdie! Well that's all. Well, if you guys want to give me some advice, may you please give some advice on putting some backspin on my pitches? I've had trouble stoping the back on the greens. It always bounces off the green and goes another 10 yds. Also, may you guys please give me some advice on turning my hips instead of swaying foward. My head stays behind the ball but I just want to turn my hips.
