That’s a good deal. Enjoy your round. Paid 50 today to walk.. but I always like to walk it.
-
If we can combine our games, we’d be scratch golfers ha. Had 33 putts today, pretty decent.
-
41/41 at Wintonbury Hilllls. Struggled off the tee a bit again. If I can fix that, I’ll start breaking 80 this season.
-
Well the last two winters were Nino’s, right?, so it can’t get any worse.
-
Yea, 300 is maxed out. 275ish is a reasonable drive for a decent amateur though. Wind, elevation, firmness...all factors.
-
I’m around 280-300 depending on a variety of factors. I just don’t use my driver often cuz I hit my 3W more consistently straight in the 250 range and I’m rarely playing off the tips to need the extra yardage anyway.

Subscribe to this guys channel. A lot of good stuff. Here’s a driving video to stop slicing:

Duck hooks are usually the result of being too ‘handsy’. Work on getting your weight shifted to the front side and let the hands follow/trail. The body will take care of the hands.

Nice playing gents. There’s been great weather for it but I’ve been caught between outdoor projects and work. I did play last Thur at Wintonbuy Hills. Love the layout and played solo off an 11am tee time. So I Played two balls but only kept score on my 1st. Struggled to find my swing on the front but found it on the back. 47/40. Will probably play it again next week. Enjoy the PGA this weekend. A much needed return.
-
I love Fox Hop. I have off Thur and Fri next week. Fri looks like the better day so if anyone is down to play just let me know by Tuesday so I can book it on GolfNow. Otherwise, I’ll head up to Winton Hills in Bloomfield instead, shorter drive if playing solo.
-
CT National in Putnam is a good track too.
-
It’s 1hr30min for me so that’s good enough. Like Steve says, Thompson has a nice course plus another private one that @powderfreak mentioned a couple weeks back that are offering tee times to the public now. Whatever works.
-
That’s the idea. I think ECT/RI border is less than a 2hr drive for you?
-
I’ll even make the drive to ECT/RI border if someone from EMA is down to play.
-
Anyone down for Wintonbury Hills in Bloomfield CT next Thur or Fri? Great course...
-
So @PowderBeard...what’s the ideal mixture to use for top dressing the lawn come fall for my purposes? I have an uneven lawn but it’s quite acidic. Lime applications hasn’t done much the past two years. So I’d like to core aerate and top dress. Thanks.
-
I missed the event...does Barkley still have the worst swing in the world? Not sure he can rag on anyone’s golf game.
-
Nice...And?
-
Both but more top dressing. I’m going to core aerate in the fall and topdress my acidic lawn. Just getting fed up with the battle of my shit soil. I’ve limed it several times the past two years...no improvements. I’m running anywhere from 4-5 on the ph scale in certain spots.
-
Got out there again today, posted an 83. Struggled off the tee at times...if I can fix that part, my game would get to the next level. Came within a foot of my first ever ace on a par3 148yd with my precious 9iron. As is, I’m hovering around good but not great play.
-
What’s the best mixture for our climate to topdress? Not going to do it now but early fall the plan is to aerate and topdress it.
-
All it takes is a couple pure shots to make it worthwhile lol. It’s good to be out regardless though.
-
Nice boys...season just getting started.
-
Yup...back to who I really am lol. Although this Pete Dye course was pretty tough. Still, 93 is meh. Swung it OK but putted terrible. Next.
-
Ha...Geez. That’s a brutal response. A no thank you but appreciate you trying to get the golf AMWX crew out would have sufficed lol. I kid...I get it. Next time I’ll drive the 5 hours round trip in hopes that someone from EMA shows up.
