Well I'm sitting in my easy chair watching the U.S. Open on Fathers Day. McIlroy is -17 on #10 and it is all but a formality that he will win and probably set the new record for under par for a major championship.
I had an invite to play tomorrow morning at Frisco Lakes, but I have to travel to Chicago this week. Russell and Ed are out this Saturday and it will likely be Joel and I and we'll see if we can get Higgy and Bob Tole.
I had a lesson with Troy Lewis at Fossil Creek on Friday. I have been making really poor contact the past three weeks and need to get straightened out. Troy's got me taking the club back a bit more to the inside as well as coming back to the ball more from the inside. Also have a bowed wrist which is leaving the face open at contact. Part of my problem is also that my back stiffens up after about 9 holes and makes it difficult to turn my lower body. I've got to keep working on that.
Happy Father's Day to you all.
Saturday, the course was the big winner. Wind gusts, slow play, and no course knowledge took its tow. I was lucky to shot 90. My driving has improved (distance) but my iron play and short game was poor. If my short game isn't sound, my golf scores really suffer. I like playing different courses but, I have to admit, one of my strengths is course management, and not knowing the course, does effect my decision making and usually hurts my score. I am looking forward to tounament in July. Hopefully, everyone can play.
