Hawaii golf

Today I played golf with my dad. He shot 78 and i shot 75. I was surprised because he hasn't touched a club in over 6 months. I shot 38 with a double on the front and 37 on the back. It was a par 72. I miss numerous putts for birdie, but I was using rental clubs that were regular flex. Today was a relaxing round just for fun.

LHS vs Granada

Today my school played against Granada High School. We won shooting 213 at Brookside. The first and second hole I make a regular par, green in regulation, two putt. The third hole I hit my approach shot to about 20 feet. My birdie putt goes in the hole and lips out so I tap in par. 4th hole I make up and down for par. 5th hole I hit my ball right and my approach shot was plugged in a bunker lip. I was able to get the ball onto the green from the trap, but ended up two putting. 6th hole I made a birdie to get back to even. 7th hole I hit my drive in a trap and my second shot I put to about 140 out. I managed to put my ball about 30 feet away and my birdie putt was on track but the wind pushed it. I tap in for par and moved on. 8th hole I hit my iron shot to about 8 or 9 feet. I read my putt until I was sure about the brake. I stroked it exactly how I planned but the ball lipped out on the high side. 9th hole my drive was in the fairway but my second shot landed on the green but rolled off and up a hill. I had a chip to a very down hill pin. My chip rolled for about 50 feet. My putt was from off the green and about 25 feet. I hit my putt and again and it lips out high side. I tap in for a 37.

New Season!

Today was the first pre-season match for Lincoln High School 2011. We played Saint Mary's at brookside and they won 198 to 216. I shot an unsatisfying 36. The first hole I made a solid birdie, fairway green 20 foot one putt. Second hole I hit the fairway, then the sand trap and a one putt for par. 3rd hole i made a 2 putt par. 4th hole I hit a solid drive, good second shot just short of the green chipped it close and made my tap-in birdie. 5th hole i hit a good drive down the middle, second shot was about 35 feet from the pin and i sank the putt for birdie. 6th hole I hit a bad drive leaving me around 200 out, in the rough. I hit a 3 iron to about 12 feet to a back pin. I missed the simple up hill 10 footer. 7th hole i hit a bad drive but i made up for it with my second shot. I was 190 out and I chose to play it safe and aim away from the water, but i had too much club and i went long and right. I chipped over the green and then I putted back onto the green but short, and i missed the following putt leading to a 7 double bogey. The double bogey put me at 1 under threw 7. 8th hole I was feeling confident, so I hit an 8 iron from about 155. My ball lands 2 feet short of the pin bounces close then rolls back to about 6 feet. I missed the 6 foot putt to make par. The last hole it was nearly sundown, but I hit my driver good about 190 from the pin. I hit a 4 iron a little right of where I intended and short. I was left with about a 60 foot putt. I hit the putt on the low side and i had a 6 foot putt for par. My par putt lipped out softly leading to a bogey. I finished the last 3 holes 3 over with 3 unnecessary putts to shoot an upsetting 36. What began as an amazing round ended up being a decent round. Wednesday is our next match at brookside.
