I'm at +11 with 4 to go on day 2. I somehow doubt that I'll be able to go only +1 in four holes, but we'll see...

Let's see, +11 means I'm +4 on the day. I predict I will bomb and bogey three of the last 4 to make it +7 on the day

and I'm not sure if Lathrop is an FOFCer now, maybe I'm mistaking him with an hattricker. Anybody know a Lathrop around here?

FrogMan · 06-09-2006, 10:32 AM

dola, that's what it is, I found him in HT. st.cronin, you forgot Daniel Turner as an FOFCer...

FrogMan · 06-09-2006, 10:49 AM

par on the 15th, bogey on the 16th, now at +12 with two holes to play in round 2...

FM

FrogMan · 06-09-2006, 11:01 AM

well, I outdid myself and bogeyed only 2 of the last four to finish at +6 on the day, +13 on the tourney so far. I still think the cut will happen at +12 or better, probably at +11 or +10.

I guess we need to practice a bit more. The nice thing is that practicing requires very little work.

FrogMan · 06-09-2006, 11:01 AM

dola,

vtbub also shot a +6 in the US Open earlier today to also end at +13 on his tourney.

Just have to remember to practice every other day...

FrogMan · 06-09-2006, 11:50 AM

you can practice once per 24 hour and no more than 3 times in 6 days. What I found out this morning is that you also can't practice when you are within two hours of playing a round.

well, since you can practice only 3 days out of 6, you won't be able to practice while we'll be playing in a tourney, so you might as well enter one. Also, I'm thinking that since this guy seems to have modeled his thing similarly to Hattrick, not playing might have an effect on your form, but I got no proof of that at all...

FrogMan · 06-15-2006, 10:34 AM

well, I've teed off and done the first hole and sure enough, I'm +1 but I can't frigging believe it, look at this:

Round:1 Hole: 1 Par: 4
FrogMan chose to hit a DRIVER down the MIDDLE of the fairway and play for the MIDDLE OF THE GREEN with the approach shot.

Shot 4: Putt - Missed Putt To Pin:4Feet - On the Green
Shot 5: Putt - Holed Putt To Pin: In the Hole

I made sure to practice my putting this week, now up to formidable (9) and yet, I still do the fucking stupid "putt one foot long while your 5 feet away" thing... sheesh, I'm worse than I thought or that was one very bad downward slope and I putt 9 feet long

Coffee Warlord · 06-15-2006, 10:36 AM

I have hit 1 fairway all day.

And like 2 greens.

dervack · 06-15-2006, 11:36 AM

Dude, my guy is just awful today. Wonder if I'll make the cut.

Well, at least I pared the back 9.

FrogMan · 06-15-2006, 11:41 AM

Pumpy is done with the first round and played a +5, an improvement over all of us one week ago. Grats Pumpy

As for me, I'm +2 after 7 and yep I did the bad putt routine again:

Quote:

Round:1 Hole: 5 Par: 3
FrogMan chose to play for the MIDDLE OF THE GREEN with the approach shot.
