This is like “The Hangover.” We’ve lost Doug and need to get him back.

So the biggest problem I've had in this slump is BIG dead pulls left. I mean left of Bernie. Yesterday I had a good round, a 77, but had a few soft holes dow n the stretch where I made three bogeys - none of which were particularly bad but I shouldn't have bogeyed all three and two were partly set u...

So at one point today as I was struggling, I hit a 7i to the very front edge of the green. Problem was the flag was at the very back of the green, probably 85-90 feet up a slope and then down to the hole.

It hasn’t been unusual to have 7-8 outstanding drives and 3-4 fubars in the same round. Lots of huge pulls left and huge slices right. It’s gotten so bad I benched my driver af...

Well I called it an asterisk but it’s more of an exclamation mark. Regardless, I’ve hit the GHIN breaks I didn’t know existed.

So I've been in a terrible slump. Last June through mid-September I went on a fabulous run which ended with three of my best rounds ever in a 15 day period. My handicap reached an all-time low, although I realized that it was artificial. I promptly went into my all time biggest slump. At times it's ...
