She was actually driving the ball with her driver and her lofted clubs were getting up in the air. I can't believe that something as simple as that fixed her problem.

So we went out and played yesterday and she was able to carry what she did on the range out on to the course. She shot 60/55 for a 115, by far the best I have ever seen her play. She had gotten pretty discouraged with the game and hadn't played for 3+ years. Now she can't wait to get back out again.
Good shots are addictive. A few good shots will have a person pumped to get out and play again, truly is a great game.

Well I better get ready if I want to make the noon game, will report back later if I should have went to work instead.

Awwww, RNR is not an idiot. A bit misguided perhaps, but he's one of the good 'uns.

Moving the ball back in her stance will make the ball go higher as well.

I'm going to let her get a little consistency going right now before I start ****ing with her swing some more.

Should have went to work, shot 83 from the tips with five double bogie's :banghead:. Just wasn't on on the front and put up a 44, then went to the back 9 and started playing better, still just shot a 39. Couldn't stay out of trouble.

All in all ended up getting things worked out, but not before I put up big numbers.

78 tonight. Man I keep having a couple of holes that I get into trouble of the tee, blocking it every now and then.

Watched the finally of the big break tonight, Kim won. But really I wasn't impressed with any of the girls on there. Kim hit it long but is a horrible putter. Sophie was probably the best. Man they had some hotties on there though.



Oh and if there are any lefties on here with a 52* titleist vokey wedge laying around I would be interested, need to fill the gap between my 56 and PW.

Playing in a tournament in Trenton, MO this weekend, most likely staying over and partying tonight. Anyone else on here playing over there or going out tonight?

Herzig probably has that wedge in a variety of colors.

Is he a lefty?

I went out again Sunday. I was hitting my driver much better, long and relatively straight. I wasn't counting, but I think I hit all but about 2 or 3 fairways. And with one exception, the ones I missed were just off in the rough. I still didn't score so well, though. I needed 10 or less strokes on the last two holes to finish under 100 and parred the par 3 17th. Then I hit my only bad drive of the day on 18 (par 4). I jacked around and didn't go for the easy recovery and hit my second shot into the water. So I ended up with a quadruple bogey 8 and total of 100.

:cuss:

Oh well, it was a nice day out anyway.

One of my wife's contacts at work is getting us on at The National on August 8, so I'm really looking forward to that. Anyone else here play that course? How tough is it?
