Shot an 88 today. Played really well. This is my third time in the 80's. Played pretty good.

I am using that golf app that Bishop Vandalay has been using, but can't figure out how to post the scorecard. Oh well.

I had a filsdepac stretch yesterday in this order:

25 foot birdie putt on a par 3
15 foot birdie putt on a par 4
300 yard drive followed by a 225 3 iron to 5 feet, eagle putt made
20 foot chip in from the fringe for birdie
Stuck a 9 from about 155 out to 2 feet, tap in birdie

Luckiest stretch of golf in my life.

Shot a 79, first time I've broken 80 in years. I almost cried.

Nice, fus.

I'm envious that you were able to play a round. I couldn't even get to the range to hit a bucket yesterday.

Wait a minute you were -6 over a 5 hole stretch and you still shot a 79? I am disappointed in you.

Haha, no kidding. I used the same ball the entire round but I had some blow up holes.

You've golfed with me, I can get real hot but real cold.

I'm allegedly golfing with fils this week hopefully I can replicate a similar score.

I had a lesson yesterday from one of the local pro's. It was great and really helped with my irons and chipping. Irons and chipping doesnt cure hitting 5 balls out of bounds from the tee box. Worst score in a while (105) but felt like everything except the tee shots were great. There was a fall aprt hole where I crushed my drive but hit a 6 iron about 5 feet too far left and rolled down into a deep bunker. It took me 2 shots to get out, but the second shot out went across the green and I skulled my chip back into the bunker and it took me another 2 to get out. Then a 2 putt for a 9 on a par 4. It was sad.

But I am looking forward to the golf in Vegas this next week!

How 'bout a report on the golfing in Las Vegas.

Dick's Sporting Goods is selling all of their colored golf balls. All of the Srixons and Bridgestone's are half off. The Tour Yellow Z-Stars are going for $24.99. The Bridgestone E5, E6, and E7's in the orange and yellow were all $21.99. Good time to stock up golfers. I like the yellow golf balls a lot. And the Bridgestone E5 and Z Star are nice golf balls.

Didn't happen, fusnik is all talk, when it comes to golf at least. I don't think we tallied the final score, but it wasn't great for either of us. Fus rented a Lexus to make me think he had a nice car, but it was awkward when I found the rental agreement.

Walked for the first time this year. Shot my best round since August of last year. I carded an 87 (44+43). I had a great back nine going and then scored a 9 on the par five 15th hole. I was able to shrug it off and finish par, bogey, par. I had 8 pars in the round.

I have had issues with my game dating back to my trip to Utah in September (15 of 27 rounds above 100 ) and have seen my index jump from a 19.1 to a 22.7, so this felt good. I need to walk more. It keeps the mind clear and keeps me from stewing over the bad shot and focused on making good ones.

I am sure you are all dying to hear how my golf troubles are coming along.

Well I am up to a 15 handicap. While my back isn't giving me the trouble it was, I think during that period I have developed some really bad habits. On top of that playing a few times in the cold leaves me with no distance even if I hit the ball. Now I am overswinging and also looking up to see if I finally hit it good.

Although I shot a 92 on Saturday, I really was encouraged. Those times I kept my head down, I hit some pretty sweet shots. Had two legit birdies.

I think if my back holds out, I can't get back down to single digits.

Thanks for all your support through this trial.

To be able to play good golf and then not be able to score well is a terrible thing. 71 my thoughts and prayers are with you.
