I went to the driving range this morning. It was my first time picking up a club since last summer, and it wasn't pretty. I would have definitely shot around 100 if I played 18 holes yesterday.
[QUOTE="MonoSilver"]I can drive them all right but if I use any other club, it's best to evacuate the area. BMD004
lol. I drive the ball far, but there is no telling where it's going. I can hit one perfectly straight and the next one will slice into the trees. I used to practice quite a bit as I live near some fields which lend themselves well to long drives. It's been so long since I picked up a club though I'd be very erratic.
When I played I was good, at least for a 13 year old beginner. I drove the ball really well, but wasn't that great at putting. Haven't played in like 10 years though.

If you're still in the phase of "I drive the ball far, but there is no telling where it's going", then no, you aren't shooting around 100. More like 120... maybe... with a generous share of mulligans.
I used to have a decent swing, last time I played on a course I was getting to be pretty accurate compared to when I started. Â I just went to a range for the first time in several years, though, and I definitely regressed. Â Almost everything I hit was going left if I hit it solid, and I think I hit the ground behind the ball before I hit the ball more often than not.

It depends. Some days I can hit the majority straight, and some days I can't. By the end of my time at the range, I adjusted some things and was hitting decently. I used to shoot in the 90's, but have definetly shot well into the 100's many times before. So I just said "around 100". But you are right, I'd probably be well over 100 since its been so long.
[QUOTE="MrPraline"]Nah. As an accountingf** I probably should though. But the only game of golf I've liked is the one in Falling Down. Fightingfan
Accounting is soo lame. I've done it, how do you like your job LOL It's fine. Work for an accounting firm and am only involved in compilation and some other things. Do not make any journal entires or anything myself. Boss those people around. It sounds insane but external reporting and its laws, including GAAP, can be quite interesting.
most tracks I'll end up somewhere between 5-10 over par. not bad but at one time I was almost a scratch golfer, although at the time I was playing almost everyday~
Pretty bad. It's a pretty good way to waste an afternoon if you're with people but I don't see the appeal in going alone. At least if I'm with people we can laugh at least other when we end up 3 or 4 over par on every single hole. Every now and then I'll fluke out and get it in in 2 but that isn't common at all.
I'm really good...
...at mini golf.:P

Contrary to my awful regular golfing I too am a master at mini-golf. I couldn't do putting on a regular course to save my life though, funny how that works.

I think if golf course greens were made of carpet like mini-golf courses instead of grass, my short game would be awesome. Â No more three-puts for me!
I've gotten alright at short to medium distances but if I drive it far it could go anywhere and my putting sucks. Par 3 courses are where it's at for me.
I do okay to good at miniature golf. Â Never played real golf, but I have visited a driving range a few times. Â I can't hold a club properly, I sometimes miss the ball, and often slice it to the point where I almost hit the person in the stall next to me with the ball. Â But if I do make good contact, I get some pretty decent yardage.
