Lost a lot of shots off the tee so I was happy with the 87. For some odd reason, I was hooking a handful of shots off the tee with my driver. I'd get it straightened out for a few holes and then do it again...not quite sure what was happening.



For those against range finders, are you also against the GPS in a cart? A good handful of courses I play at have a GPS in the cart which tells you the exact distance to the pin/front/back of green.
You're from the Cranberry area aren't you (for some reason I thought I saw you mention that once)?

I was never a huge fan of Pittsburgh national but despite being a shorter course there is something I love about Cranberry Highlands.

Re: The OS Golfer's Thread!

Went out to a local course this afternoon, Highlands Oaks. Played the Par 3, 9-hole short course. Did ok, shot 4+/5+. I had one double, but besides that was playing par/bogey golf. It was so hot out there too...(Alabama).

Same here! It's close to money for me.

Where you at in Alabama?

And I've been golfing a ton this past week... I've been at the range the past two days for 3 or 4 hours working on everything. Then I'd follow that up with 9 holes or however many I can get in before the sun falls. I've been hitting the ball the best I ever had so far, but I've been losing too many strokes by poking the ball ob. However I did hit a ball 290 today, so that was fun.

Re: The OS Golfer's Thread!

Great thing about being in law enforcement is the weird schedule so i get to go out on weekdays when it cheaper and not pay the insane weekend greens fee.

Yes I am from Cranberry. I was going to play Cranberry Highlands, but it was booked yesterday morning. I wanted to get out in the morning due to the heat/humidity so I was looking for a tee time around 8am. Unfortunately they didn't have any.

I don't love Pittsburgh National, but I don't hate it (although I'm not a huge fan of all the hills). There are so many courses in this area that it's great to get out and play a different course each time out.
