First Rd back yesterday, 86 with 40 putts. Disgusting really but was first time at the course and was just enjoying playing golf again.

You could have shot 100 and it wouldn't have mattered....being out there is its own reward at this point.

At least one phase of the game is not working in any given round - if your driving is great, your short game stinks. If your irons are on, your putter is off. It's always something with this game....

I want to play a round of golf and walk away with zero regrets, just once before I die.

Playing 9 holes with my dad tonight, meeting up again at a course about halfway between where I live and where my parents live. And I did book a tee time at Lawsonia (the Links course) for next Tuesday, at the cost of just $1 as part of their "Get Outdoors" name-your-price promotion. Rain is in the forecast, so (fingers crossed) hopefully that changes between now and then!

Got to play Dearborn CC yesterday. I played there once last year. That golf course has the largest greens of any course I've ever played. Had a nice little money match going with some buddies. Played my best round in the last few years. Fired a 41 on the front and was fine with that, but bogeyed 10 and we lost the hole, just fired me up to throw a 38 on the back. I was hyped. My new Scotty was on fire. Only putt he missed was on 18 from 20ft that would have won us a couple more bucks. But overall great round, and good win.


Now today I played a place called the Orchards where the Michigan State Am or Open, can't remember, has been played at. Greens were insanely fast. Wish I would have put my Spider X in for the Scotty, just cause the insert on that works better for me on incredibly fast greens. But I shot an 85 today, nothing overly notable, just grinded.

Went out for the first time this season. Almost whiffed the first shot, but had a couple birdies and a bunch of pars. Wasn't really keeping track but probably would have broke 80 today. The first round is always a fun time!!

Lawsonia (Links) lived up to the reputation yesterday...what a wonderful course. Because it was about 90 degrees outside here in Wisconsin, and thanks to the "name your own price" Tuesday promotion, the course was jam packed. Despite that, everyone could social distance and I still managed to get my round in in about 4 hrs.

Shot 101...the bunkers and elevation changes around the greens are no joke! Could have easily broken 100 if it didn't take me several shots (several times!) to get out of a couple of the bunkers.

Even when greens fees are normal ($45 weekday walking, $70 on weekends, or you can pay $100 weekday/$110 weekend and play all day long...Twilight rates are available after 3 p.m., too), this course is an amazing value. If you're ever in the Green Lake, WI area, treat yourself to a round or two at Lawsonia.
