Today on a short par 4 I needed to hit iron off the tee. Hit a terrible shot that still left me 195 into the green. Ended up hitting 5 iron to 15ft and made the birdie putt. It's all about the next shot.0 -
That makes a lot of sense. As I've played more, I've found I rarely get more than a double bogey because I try not to compound one mistake into two or three. Hit it in the trees just punch the best you can move on.
I'm going to track my rounds better this year although I don't know how many full rounds I'll actually play. Track fairways, GIR, putts, birdies, pars, bogeys, doubles, etc...

I knew someone that did that. They kept it all in a spreadsheet and would look at it to see what needed work and how they were improving year over year.0

The tournaments are flighted by your handicap so you're always playing against other people of your skill level. And your "tour handicap" is determined by how you play in the tournaments. So there's no sandbagging by saying you're a higher handicap than you really are. Most states have their own branch of the tour (Florida has 3 or 4) so you can go play in a Golfweek tournament anywhere you want.0 -

Not flashy but it felt good to step up and execute when I needed to.0 -
You played the 18th how Tiger played the 18th at Augusta. Don't take any risks. Get your par (bogey for Tiger) and win the damn tournament. That is great to hit two good shots under pressure and get your two putt for the trophy.

Cool looking trophy. Looks like one of the WGC guys. Too bad it didn't come with a WGC looking payout too!
Congrats though. You should do the USGA mid am stuff if you are winning tournaments.0 -
