recap of golf rounds – good and bad
9 Holes – South Suburban (Back 9) Overall: Not a great score. Somewhat discouraging given the lessons I’ve been taking, but there were some positives to build on. Driver: Pretty good for the most part, though sometimes it feels like all arms for some reason. Par 5s: Some good second shots and drives. Had a … Read more
Saturday, June 6th – Highlands Ranch Golf Club Teed off at 6:50 a.m. with Lucas and a couple of friends. Early mornings are tough to drag yourself out of bed for, but I’d highly recommend it — we finished in just under four hours, barely saw the group in front of us, and the guys … Read more
Round Notes — Wednesday, May 27th | South Suburban | 9 Holes Overall Impressions Played pretty well for the most part. The driver is still the best club in the bag — feeling like I’m even getting a little more distance out of it now. Chipping is getting better but still some bad spots. Just … Read more
Wellshire Golf Course Friday, May 22 · Company tournament with Lucas for his work. They had some openings so, joined just to play. We didn’t enter our scores since we won’t be playing consistently over the summer, Lucas included. Plus my play was not good Course notes Mostly straight layout with plenty of trees.

Conditions were far from ideal — 55°F at tee time with rain coming and going throughout most of the round, annoying enough to be a nuisance but not enough to call it. Ironically, the sun came out right at the end. Despite the weather, played pretty well overall. Hole 1 (Par 4) — Drove it … Read more

Honestly, I like the new back nine better than the new front nine. Not sure why, just do. Played pretty well overall. Was hitting the ball solid … Read more
Golf at Lake Quivira Country Club – May 8th, Kansas City Played golf in Kansas City on May 8th with my brother-in-law, his nephew, and I suppose his nephew-in-law. We played at Lake Quivira Country Club, where Jim is a member. He’s very generous and takes us out there frequently. It’s a really nice course … Read more
Weekend Golf Assessment Played Broken Tee Par 3 on Sunday, May 3rd Still working through some things — it kind of feels like I need to come a little more inside on my backswing moreso than the straight back Chris is asking me to do. Having a hard time translating some of the exercises Chris … Read more
Conditions were a bit chilly with some light spitting rain early on, though it cleared up as the round went on. Driver was a relative bright spot — hitting it pretty well and mostly straight. Had a couple of pushes to the right but nothing dramatic, no big slice to speak of. Chipping felt decent … Read more
Taking My Lessons to the Virtual Course April 22, 2025 With Red Hawk Ridge on the original agenda, Lucas and I had to pivot yesterday when the forecast came in looking less than ideal — winds of 15–20 mph with gusts up to 35. That’s a tough sell for a round in Castle Rock, so … Read more
