Jan 24, Rancho Park : Best Drive Day

I am not a long hitter. Maybe shorter than most ladies with my handicap. My driver usually goes to 150 yards or a little less average, when I don’t miss a shot. Today I made around 180 yard drive four times. I was happy to score 93 at Rancho park, comparing 106 on Tuesday.

My practice on Wednesday was really productive. I felt confident of my shots today. Overall it was a good round.

My putting was not that good for the first 9 holes. Myong Ah and I was in a group with John, Japanese man who we’ve played before and we greeted whenever we saw him at the course. We know some people coming in a regular basis and he is one of them. He is an amazing player making all putts. I don’t usually take tips from other players during a round. I was frustrated with my putting and asked his tip.

I thought I read green wrong or my stroke doesn’t go straight because of wristle movement. He told me those were fine with me and I just needed to make my stance paralleled with my putter aiming. Ah….

He was totally right. My body usually towards to a hole, while my putter aimed a point after reading a break. It was a big change. I had 14 putts for the last 9 holes after the tip. It was one of the best rounds!
