Well I have been playing this game since the tours started and have heard every excuse/reason to shoot bad. Today, I will give you one more...'lawnmower hands'. I went out and mowed my lawn because rain was moving in and after I finished, immediately, I came to play my first round. The vibration of holding the lawnmower handle destroyed my touch. (snickers)
I will bet my P\P swings for the 18 was no more than 5 swings. It was either a slow backswing or fast downswing. I even stopped and exited the game after nine holes, ate lunch and got back to it and it was the same slow or fast swing. I will stop now as my opponent this week, Leon, is probably laughing at me.
Oh the score was -5 and I had to birdie 3 of the last 4 to get that. Got a long way to go to catch Leon this week, but since my grass is cut, I can do it. Oh and by the way I am only 'partially serious' about the 'lawnmower hands', but this was the worst case of tempo I have ever had.

billybudd0623Can you please ask your neighbours if their yards need mowing before you play your next 2 rounds?

LoftyandoSorry Leon, it is raining cats and dogs here in North Carolina. Not your level of rain yet, but I am going to see about some lumber for an ark. I don't think you have to worry this week. I don't like this course and my final 2 rounds will probably show that.(when I get to play) I am going to practice with a metronome to see if that improves my tempo.

SebulbaDingid Avery, I have never seen that before.It gives a new meaning to 'take dead aim' as Harvey Penick used to say. (He was an old time great golf instructor)

(He was an old time great golf instructor) I too have never seen it before Bill, I was shocked to say the least. Had to post. I have never heard of Harvey Penick but then again I was born in the 90's lol

SebulbaDingidAvery. some time when you have some extra time, look him up on youtube or something. His main catchphrase was 'take dead aim'. You may get a few real life golf tips.

Avery he was 'old as dirt' when I watched him. He is dead now. I believe he was one of Tom Watson's main teachers. Tom is another great golfer and great teacher.

Yes I am familiar with Tom Watson, great golfer on the Champions Tour. But wow just watched a video of Penick, seems oddly familiar. They will have really old throwback instructional videos on the Golf Channel that I sometimes watch and I believe they had him on there.

1st was 65 (-7) and 2nd 69 (-3).. not sure how guys are going as low as they are this week. Course doesn't fit my eye, drives, approach, or putts. Good win Ashton. Probably taking first red mark this week.
