76 Black Last Round of Season

Well Bethpage Black closed for the season on Sun and had my last round on Sat (sun weather was too cold)

Hit the ball terribly off the tee but my wedges and putter kept me in it for a 76.

Was a nice way to end the season and a good way to demonstrate my change of golfing attitude over this year.

I personally wasnt bothered by my ball striking. granted my iron play was pretty solid, but instead of getting worked up over it (i only hit 50% of fairways) i just got myslef onto good positions and tried to stick my wedges close.

Which i did on 2, 4, 7, 10, 13 and 17 (after just advancing a buried lie in the right bunker!).

And then tried my best to make the putts.

Which I did on 9, 10, 13, 14 and 17 (tap in for a solid bogey!)

This was my second 76 on black this year and considerign the cold and ball not flying, i felt pretty happy. Theres lots of improvements for next year, but a wrap up of this years goals (which ill post soon) has left me feeling good about the progress I made this year.

Look for a new site soon too.

Happy thanksgiving

Yes we're alive

Well the seasons over and time to return to the blog.

I hit all of my goals for this year and will give a more detailed account soon!

my handicap is now 2.8 and the lowest I shot this year on Black was 76 (last round of the season was a sloppy 79..still happy tho). I played in my first USGA Event and made the cut (76-82 USGA Pub Links Qualifier).

Hopefully they'll also be a new design and dedicated URL very soon, so if youve found anything useful on this blog, please keep an eye out for future improvements

More soon.
