SuperMn106 Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 I was able to get out of the house and on to the course for the first time this year. It was the first swings this year so my expectations were not that high. I started out with par, par, bogey, and a par. I finished the first 9 with a 42. It was very pleasing. The second 9 I felt like I played worse and shot a 44. So an 86 for the first time out I can take. My driver was great, only missed one fairway all day. My irons on the other hand were not good. My chipping saved me. My putting was mediocre. Not bad all around though. I guess a feel for the greens is something you acquire through the season so I should not expect to have it right off the bat. I had 22 putts on the front and 19 on the back. I had six 3 putts and one 4 putt. Has anyone else been out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything is starting to thaw out around here, being form the area, you know how everything around here gets flooded or at least really wet around this time of year:( . I did see a few people at the Emerald in St. Johns yesterday when I drove by. It might be a few weeks before I get out, I'm sure some course will be opening up this week. The weather was great this weekend and we are supposed to have temps in the high 50s tomorrow, and low 70s() Tuesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I played the Emerald once and I loved it. It was about 60 or so today and sunny. Low 70s in Michigan this time of year is a heat wave;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muggs Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 Nice round. I got out Saturday and shot pretty good myself. 44 with a 4 putt (I know:o) and a penalty stroke. I'm hitting my irons great so far- still spraying the driver a little bit. So I need to work on the longest and shortest clubs in the bag and I should be scoring pretty decent this season.

jbeck Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Great start, I'm thinking of trying to get 9 in this evening. If the course is empty I can walk 9 in about an hour. That is about all the time I can steal away right now. LOL Look out Saturday, I'm getting 18 in. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
