My home course, looking back at the tee on #16 from about halfway up to the green. Par 3, 210 yards.

The back tee's are just before the trees there in the back. This picture was from last month's super moon I believe lol. Very narrow course, I'll have to snap pictures more often when I get out, only have a iPhone though

Yeah it was OK.  Still can't hit my irons for shit and it's effecting my score.  Shot a 90 today.  Worst round in quite some time, just can't get those irons down.  I've been doing some work on my swing at work with the GolfTec equipment (they give lessons, all PGA certified professionals etc.).  I don't usually work with anyone, just go in and use their video system so I can see my swing.  I'm popping my hips a little early and my swing plane for my irons is just off.  Going to put in some major work this week and regrip my clubs and hopefully get myself back down to where I want to be.

Here's hole 1 from the tee box (we play 1 ups today because my buddies didn't want to play tips)

Betting is awesome!
When we play we always bet like 10$ best scratch score and like 5$ each birdie.
5$ a hole is pretty much tho xd

so fricken mad. was going to have the round of my life on the back 9 of my course just to start tanking on the last 3 holes. I was 2 over going into them (2 of the 3 were easily parable while the last one is the hardest hole on the course which can also be an easy par if done properly) just to go +8 on just them...I went from potentially shooting a 41 or below on them if I just bogeyed them to shooting a 46 and then a 45 ont he front to get a 91. My handicap is 20.5 so that 9 would have been amazing to do but until next time.

Played Arizona Grand/Phantom Horse on Sunday, have two pics because it dog legs and couldn't see what I wanted to see from the tee box.

First pic here is from my second shot right at the dog leg about 245ish from the tee and the same from the green. (sorry mega pics)




And the second pic here is facing the green.



I know I know dat finger tho.

You can barely see in that second pic, the green is to the top slight left of the last bunker. Those bunkers are on a hill and they stagger up and over and they're a pain if you land in them.

Hit my hybrid for the first and second shot, put it about 15 feet from the pin and sunk the eagle put. Was stoked about that. Rest of the day was OK golf wise (HOLY WHAT THE FUCK for everything non golf related, I'll get to that soon). Shot an 82 so I'm bringing it back down. Regripped my clubs with all new orange tour wrap Pure Grips. Idk if I like them or not. I was slicing my driver on the 3 occasions I used it and couldn't get it back where I wanted. Only thing that changed was my grips so idk, I'll fuck with them some.

Anyway, now for the real what the fuck. I'm finishing up hole 9 (I was the only one playing, no friends could make it but the wife came and was pretty much just driving the cart) and we have to go under a main road here to get to 10. I'm on the 10th tee box, hit my shot and I hear a loud boom. I turn around and see an F150 swerving off the road, down into a ditch/wash that runs behind hole 9's green and smash right into this solid brick and concrete wall that elevates the 9th green and creates the wash. The boom was their tire exploding.

We hop in the cart and get back over there. There's already a woman and her daughter calling 911 (they lived right off the course and heard it) and I go to check on the guys. I'm training to be a fire fighter, so I was doing a basic first response inspection essentially. They were OK (both Mexican and spoke zero English, thank god my wife and the girl from the house speak it fluently because I'd have been fucked haha) but I smelled gas. Told them to get away from the car, I looked, no leaks, a lawn mower and some equipment had flew out the back of the truck and that's where the gas smell was coming from.

So the fire fighters show up, I tell them what I just said, they say OK, cops show, take my info in case they need me and we go back to the 10th hole.

Take my second shot, put it on the green. We're walking from the cart path to the green and the wife says "Randy, look over there" in a whisper and points to a backyard. I look over and I fucking swear to you guys, there is this old guy just fucking the LIFE out of this younger guy. These two dudes were giving zero fucks, no shrubs around their back fence, no covering, they were just going at it in the pool. I'm just like "thanks for pointing that out" and tried to focus and putt lol. Made par but as we're driving away, they get out of the pool and I just see it all and I did not need to see anymore of those two than I already had seen.

So yep, there's that. Definitely the most interesting round of golf I've ever played lol.

Had one of my best rounds of the year so far today. I have club championships coming up, so I've been practicing everyday since last Friday. Going to get range/rounds everyday right up until the day

Just shot my lowest round for 9 at my club at a 42. I could have easily saved 3 strokes if I didn't lose a ball or 3 putt twice but that's golf. This was also after playing some of my worst golf at much easier courses on Friday and Saturday with my friends so it made me happy
