81 on Saturday on one of our courses and 81 on Sunday on the other. Both days had some really good stuff, and some abnormally bad to give away 3-4 shots. Concentration just isn't there like it used to be. At least my mediocre rounds are starting to be 81's instead of 84's.

Matt, I don't understand how this can possibly be profitable. How does any golf course worth playing survive with a $400 two-season pass fee? Our morning foursome rate on a weekend is nearly $500 for one single foursome, for one single round! My guess is that the pro shop guy at Matt's club works f...

We set our 7-day anytime pass to $7000 (plus a $25 cart fee per round if used) this year, but then decided we don't need, or really even want, to encourage weekend morning pass purchases. My guess is that the pre-covid cost was half of $7000. It makes me feel good - I'm paying about $6000 a year to...

Kind of shocked these deals are still around. I hear stories hear about pre-Covid there was a golf book you could buy for like $200. All of the Kiawah courses were in it as were all the other public courses around Charleston. The Kiawah tee times were worth like $700 by themselves. Of course, pre-co...

I always amazed at the various tee time / pricing deals that golf courses do that make little business sense. Usually a deal like that you want people to not walk and bring in cart revenue. Or somehow sell out open spots, not totally clog the tee sheet. The Memphis city golf really didn't have much ...

I don't know what your handicap is but I'd take those scores for myself.

I'm currently a 6 so these scores aren't helping much. Really playing closer to an 8 - I was the most consistent golfer I knew. Not anymore.

Starting to see a disturbing trend - strong Friday outing, rough Saturday, good Sunday. The problem is that Friday is often only nine holes and Sunday is often a solo round. Friday - +2 over 9 holes. Highlight was two up and downs from 90 and 55 yards; low light was too weak bogeys on holes #7 and #...

Totally agree. It was so exciting to see him play quality golf for a day thinking with more practice he could be competitive, then he's out again. It the body isn't willing, time to quit.

Geez - isn't anyone else playing out there? Continuing to sort of blog my rounds as I try to work my way back into being a player I was two years ago. YOYO weekend - Only Sunday mattered: Friday - Crappy start - 6 bogeys in first 8 holes with two three putts. Saved #9, then caught fire with 8 straig...

I stretch daily unless work interferes, which is typically a day a week. 20-25 minute routine, makes the back much better, has added some yards to my game. I really shouldn't swing a club without stretching but it can be done. Can't say the same about my tennis game - I should never ever play withou...
