      Should be good to go. I'm not swinging without fear yet but I'm hopeful I can get the rust off of my game.

            And I thought I was the only one capable of that. If I played it smarter I may have gotten a 7.

                  Oh, you ain't the only one. As the assistant pro at the PSU course says, it's a loft problem.

                    And got another 10 yesterday!!! Put the tee shot 40 yards out and then got frustrated away to a three putt green. Temper, temper!! If I got that down to a 6 and chipped/putted a bit better, I would have broken 100. 3 trips to the course have been 100, 110, 109 (69.0 / 121).

                    Etiquette question -- when you are the worst golfer in the group, what do you do? For the last 2 times it has not been close. The others shot in the 80's and I am struggling to hit 100. I just keep plugging and hope they understand that I am trying and hope they don't get too upset when I screw up shots.

                      hit when it's your turn.. when you get on the green continuous putting to hole out and get out of the way (as long as you don't step in anyone's line). it's ok to pick up when you are putting for 7,8,9 and gimme yourself.

                        It's important to have fun too. Enjoy being out there and don't get wound up when you hit a bad shot. I'm sure whoever you are with understands that you are trying to get better.

                        I'm starting to play again for the first time in like eight years and it certainly can be trying at times. I have my index down to 17.3 already which I'm happy about.

                          I finally got out to play my first round of the season yesterday and my game is as bipolar as ever. On one hole I can look like Bubba Watson (300+ yard drive, cutting the corner of a dogleg, a chip and a tap-in birdie) and the next I look like a ******** monkey with a iron stick and proceed to shank 2 into the river, overshoot the green and 3 putt. So **** inconsistent.

                          Having a clear conscience just means you have a bad memory or you had a boring weekend.

                            I know the feeling. Last week in league play I couldn't hit a shot right to save my life and hit triple-digits. Today I had 8 pars and was 20 shots lower. Probably could have knocked another five or six shots if some putts had fallen.

                            My brother sent me a copy of his recent scorecard - started with a snowman 8 then wound up with a 74.

                              shot 71 saturday. had 5 birdies. could have shot 65 (missed five putts under 6 ft). reverted back to the norm with rounds of 80 and 83 sunday and monday.
