I got out to play golf for the first time in two weeks today. I had low expectations for myself and honestly, I think I met them. Again, there was aspirations to play 18 but we ended up only played 9 holes and I finished +10. I bogeyed every hole except for the 6th where I ended up with a double bogey. The craziest part about that double bogey is that it came on the heels of my best drive of the day. I hit it dead straight down the middle and then completely whiffed my next shot. Classic.

My friend Connor managed to capture this image of me on the 4th hole after my tee shot went right. I ended up in a not so favourable spot but it is what it is. The course I play at has a ton of trees and is very narrow. So any shots that stray left or right are almost guaranteed to end up in a bad spot. I did not end up playing the shot as it is pictured.

My driver didn’t hurt me as bad as it did last round. It actually felt like it might be headed in a good direction. But only time will tell. My irons were solid today, I was able to strike the ball well and actually feel like I was compressing them which was nice. My short game was not bad. There were a few short chips that I used my 60 degree wedge on and they ended up working out. Putting was a different story that I don’t really want to talk about. I can not remember the last time I saw a putt that was over 10 feet go in the cup.

Driver 6/10, Irons 7/10, Short Game 8/10, Putter 1/10
