You're a long distance runner. You'd love it!

Yeah he's unreal

His ball flight looks like Leishman's low bullets...except he's carrying about 80 yds further

**nutmegchoi** · 11-05-2018, 09:29 AM

I think my driver speed was 80mph and ball speed was 100mph.
I’m just gonna laugh at myself. lol

Those numbers yield 200+ yard driver if you have the right shaft for your swing. 190-200 yard drives in the fairway are just fine from most women's tees. 190 yard drive in the fairway + decent iron play + good short game = single digit handicap.

Yeah, that’s about right.
I hit somewhere 180-200 right now.
Would love to bring upto 220 in some years.
And short game.
Short game... argh...

ah Grasshopper, embrace the wisdom that a 280 yard drive and a 1-inch putt look the same on the scorecard

I know, I know.
I really should focus on chip shots and two putts.
But it feels so good to hit it really, really far (for me) and feel that contact!!!

It occurred to me that I shot my age with my career best score. It just wasn't my age when I shot it. I should try to do that. Have a goal. And it will get easier to do every year for a while.

18 holes?

**wooley12** · 11-05-2018, 09:04 PM

Yeah, 18. That's what I've always considered when "shooting your age." was the goal.

Fall is best time for golf. Grass is strong.

**nutmegchoi** · 11-10-2018, 01:44 PM

Played 18 hole by myself.
Lost 2 balls and found 3.
I say that’s winning.

With the leaves you can’t count lost ball penalty. Take a cart and a leaf blower!

Got paired up with two guys in jeans and tennis shoes.
Horrible golfers but really nice guys.
Because of their pace, I was forced to slow down which was a good thing for me.
Took 5 hours to finish 18 hole but it was a beautiful day to be out.

18 holes in 5 hours? Ouch. I walked 36 yesterday, played 2 balls, in 6:10

**nutmegchoi** · 11-12-2018, 11:35 AM

They were going sideways rather than the forward.
Also didn't have eyes to find their balls, so I had to help a lot.
Myself wasn't much better than them earlier this year, so I couldn't get upset at them for trying.

Monday comes around, already checking this weekend's weather and thinking about where to play.

I, too have a goal of shooting my age someday. I figure that if I live long enough and am still able to golf, I should achieve my goal when I'm about 120 years old.

**nutmegchoi** · 11-12-2018, 11:46 AM

Shooting my age for 9 hole counts?
I’ve done that few times!!

**wooley12** · 11-12-2018, 12:56 PM

I shot my career low after the ranger told my group we were playing too slow. I had some words with the guy and I went from 5 over to 2 under at the finish. I found him after the round and thanked him. And told him he was still wrong. A shotgun start had us 2 shots back out of the gate.
