My best par ever

Just had to say it,
today I had my best par ever. I was on a 540 yard par five dog leg right and I pushed my tee shot too far right and it was OB. So my next tee shot was good and only 190 to the flag, so I hit six iron past the flag and onto the fringe, then I chipped in. Goes to show you that you dont count your score untill it is made. I have also had a great bogey before where I pulled it into the water, then hit it into the sand, then blasted out and one putted. Tell a story about a bad hole gone good

Re: My best par ever

Good stuff shootin. Whats your Hcap now? Must be shootin down !

Can you post your swing. Love to see it

I played last night before a storm washed us out but on my par 4 6th, 435 yars I pulled my Drive about 270 into the trees on the left. Had a real small gap under some branches so ive pulled out my new favourite hybrid, set up for a low punch hook and bang, pulled it off. Balls rolled up the fairway onto the green and left me 2 ft for the 3. Of course I then missed it

sounds like a sweet shot. Now on that missed putt, did you go through normal pre shot routine and line it up?
SInce all of the stuff I have learned is starting to come togethor in the last 3 months, I am still inconsistent and hold a 5.9 index as of right now. For example, today I shot 78 with two balls OB, and I do that when I come out of my spine angle. As far as posting a swing, I dont tape much anymore because I would pick my swing apart, When in actuality it is pretty consistent when I REALLY focus on my keys. But I will see what I can do, it would mean I would have to learn how to upload a video

Re: My best par ever

Short Par 4 (about 350yrds) where you drive over an old Stone quarry (now grass covered but its still about 10m deep with steeply banked sides.
It was a foursomes comp and my partner was only hitting his 3 iron off the tee, long story short he messed it up and put me half way up the quarry face.
I then figured out my yardages, adjusted for uphill slope, adjust for ball bending left and hit my 5 iron from about 150m.
When I finally climbed out of the quarry we were 3 inches from the cup.
Needless to say our opposition were not impressed after their perfect drive.

Re: My best par ever

shooting, you play a game from which I am not familiar.
your distances are not only tour distances, but very good top ten tour distances. As to your question, I was playing on a windy day, on a 450 yd par 4. Pushed a drive, was blocked, faded (don't remember the club) to about 100 yds and then hit a low pw to within 5 feet and sunk the putt.
BTW - on the shot OB, did you cock before you cupped?? sorry I couldn't help myself.

Seriously at those distances, if you could get backing, I would consider trying a local tour and see how you do. However, you need to roll the ball better to get down to a plus 2 or 4.

top ten is stretching, I have honestly seen someone CARRY it 350. You must also realize, in their driving stats are holes where they hit into the wind, and holes that they may hit 3 woods. Being a pro is a lot more then hitting it long, and my current job is not too shabby either.

BTW, could you tell me the difference between cupping and cocking, and which should I do first?
