Title: Home course nine - PB Post by: Uisce Beatha on May 13, 2008, 11:25:43 AM Shot 43 counting a 18-2 penalty while setting up for my putt after the best tee shot I've ever played on #16 - a 191-yard (played off 200 today) uphill par-3 with lots of trouble. The ball moved 1/4" but I'd grounded my putter so... [sm_dontknow]
Sixteen putts. Two reasonable bunker extractions and those have been my nemesis lately. Two "best evar" 60* flop shots to downhill greens. One long made putt (25' downhill left to righter). Zero missed short putts (< 4' and maybe even 5'). Very excited about this. I've shot 39 on another course before but this might be better especially considering the penalty stroke which isn't at all indicative of my play. My home course is much tougher than the other one. This nine is rated/sloped at 35.9/131 from the blues at 3384 yards. Woot. [sm_buddies] Title: Re: Home course nine - PB Post by: spacey on May 13, 2008, 11:32:51 AM Valley View?

Title: Re: Home course nine - PB Post by: Uisce Beatha on May 13, 2008, 11:50:07 AM Valley View? Yep. In magnificent condition by the way. Title: Re: Home course nine - PB Post by: spacey on May 13, 2008, 11:57:13 AM Excellent. I think I shot a 120 or something last time I played there.
Title: Re: Home course nine - PB Post by: Uisce Beatha on May 13, 2008, 12:00:35 PM Excellent. I think I shot a 120 or something last time I played there. I've done that more than once. Certainly topped 110 a few times. It's a tough azz course. 71.6/131/6701 from the blues and I think that rating/slope is soft.

Seems to me though, with all those other accomplishments, the one lacking by definition is G.I.R. ::) ;D Title: Re: Home course nine - PB Post by: Fuzzy on May 13, 2008, 01:16:08 PM [sm_beertoast] [sm_thumbsup2]
Nice work! Title: Re: Home course nine - PB Post by: Uisce Beatha on May 13, 2008, 01:42:18 PM Seems to me though, with all those other accomplishments, the one lacking by definition is G.I.R. ::) Hehehe. Do the math. [sm_anon] Title: Re: Home course nine - PB Post by: JDerion on May 14, 2008, 11:11:10 AM NICE WERK!
Title: Re: Home course nine - PB Post by: Uisce Beatha on May 14, 2008, 12:47:50 PM Thanks gents.
Playing there again on Sunday. It'll *goshdarn* chew me to bits. Guaranteed. Golf, and specifically Valley View, has no tolerance for righteous fulfillment. Title: Re: Home course nine - PB Post by: stroh on May 14, 2008, 01:29:06 PM Just don't suck baby!
Title: Re: Home course nine - PB Post by: Uisce Beatha on May 18, 2008, 04:13:08 PM Shot 92 (91 ESC) which is my PB over a full 18 at this course. Pretty happy although I legitimately left a bunch of shots out there. I wouldn't say I played well as exemplified by three three-putts over my first four holes. Bladed two shots back and forth across the green on one hole for a snowman. Just didn't really have it today yet the score was decent.
Oh, and I parred that #2 handicap 18th hole mentioned in the other thread. Had a good look at birdie too and left the putt 4" short on a dead center line. Cost me a beer as I needed that for a push on our standard bet. Title: Re: Home course nine - PB Post by: Dunk on May 18, 2008, 09:23:18 PM Nice shooting!!
