Living in Springfield my whole life I've never went and played golf down at Bella Vista. My dad poo pooed it when I was a kid so I never played there.
I did play Deer Lake today though. It wasn't a great round but it was a round. I'm having trouble calculating my stats because I had border line situations. In the end I drove the ball very well hitting 10 drivers with 7 in the fairway. Two of the missed fairways were really well hit and in perfect position. One was hit really well but the way I play 15 at Deer Lake there's not much room for error. The ball had to be 12' from the ground and caught the last limb hanging out of the sinkhole and triple rickashade into the hazard. I smote every driver I hit.
Drive for show, putt for dough. I only hit 8 greens and I had 31 putts. I had one 2 chip and in that process also 2 chips that I putted. I missed what sould have been a gimmie on the first of the day and after I hit two 7 irons with in 10' of the hole I 2 putted both. Also Hit a 7 iron to 15' and missed it. My putting stats aren't reflective of how bad I putted.
In the end I left three birdies on the course and shot a 79. The way I drove the ball and the position I was in I ended up playing poorly.
The scoring shots of 150 yards in just were not good enough.
And that's today's golf.
I remember playing HS golf and my coach asking me what I shot. I said "79 coach!" He said "that's great." The next guy came in and coach said "what'd you shoot Mike?" He said "80". Coach said "that sucks!"
