I had two major achievements today. The first is that I played the whole round at Legends with the same ball. That is 9 holes of par 3 golf with the same ball from end to end. The second is that I think this is the first time I did not have any penalty strokes. No lost balls, no water shots, etc (see first achievement). That means the 42 I turned in was entirely me.
Started off trying to hit the driving range at one course. The card reader didn't work. Even if it had my card wouldn't have worked so I left there and went to Legends. I hit a small bucket to warm up then played 9. On the range I hit a few with each club and more than a few with teh hybrid I bought. I liked the feel. I followed a par who were walking. They made pretty good time and I entertained myself by looking for golf balls. I think I found 6. Somewhere ahead of them was the two guys I've followed before.
My one complaint is that I think I need the SW and the PW and the 9i and then the 7i & 5i and 3i but that means tossing the chipper or the putter. :) My other complaint is that I am sending the ball straight left. Other than that it was a pretty good round. I hit the new hybrid just fine and the 3i was too long of a club for the tee box and where I aimed myself. Hit a 9i too long and even a 7i shot too long.
As much as I like carrying the bag I may switch back to the wheely cart and strap on more gear. :) I do want an umbrella holder.
