I got my first eagle today that prompted me to start this..my golf dairy!
Been playing for ages..say 6-8 years and finally down to a low handicapper. A tour wannabe that has not realized his full potential or a tour wannabe who doesn't realize he's past his fullest potential. I'll find the answers as this blog develops.
Today I shot a 5 over 77 on a relatively easy course but fairly damp as a downpour developed after our second hole. Play resumed after 45 minutes. Pretty dull and normal until the eagle happened. I drove the 8th to 1 ft of the pin with a slight fade.
I had an eagle and a birdie,8 pars and i guess 8 bogeys. Driver and 3 wood was acceptable, and short game was exceptional*. *note to self- reverted back to ball on right toe for low chips and made more use of the 54*. This made for attacking the pin when I could and the 50m was executed with the 54 running it to the pin.
Oyah before I forget- also reminded myself to turn my back against the target to get maximum rotation for the driver.
It's like a love affair .. It hurts like a heartbreak when I hit it bad, and when I hit it good it's like levitation.
