Good 9 vs Bad 9
Posted on 10/20/26 at 12:39 pm

For the last 2 months almost every round I've played has had good 9 (36-41) then complete fall apart on the other 9 (46-50) , its very consistent... anyone else had this problem? any tips would be appreciated.

Only play 9 holes at a time?

Keep your short irons close to your body. As I had to find out, as you get fatigued, you may tend to extend those clubs out more. It may get you a better short game as it did me on the back nine.

Yes, this happens to me a lot. Especially at Greystone… Hell I can’t tell you how many times I’ve shot mid 40’s on the front then shoot 36-38 on the back.
Last weekend I shot 42 on the front then 36 on the back with a double on 18. The game is humbling and infuriating at times.

18 is a really tough hole when pin is back left.
I usually have a rough first nine then figure things out and finish well. Takes me a few holes to get loose and figure out green conditions.

I find I get fatigued by the back nine and typically replicate my front nine score at best. I'm usually 3-5 strokes worse on the back nine and the only thing I can think of is that I'm fatigued by then.

Hell it's a tough hole period... getting there in two seems like a pipe dream unless you're playing from the Reds.. definitely have to take less than driver from the tee second shot can be tricky depending on where the tee shot lands.. it's just a tough hole all around

Did the nines used to be flipped? If not, they need to be.
It always bothered me to end on that nut kick then have to be careful of people teeing off on 10 and then drive across the street, drop your stuff, then return cart and go inside to settle up and eat. Just makes no sense.

City championship last Saturday morning, 43/38 with a DB on 10. Had a snowman on 7, par 4, was my demise on the front.

Yes, at some point hole 10 was hole 1.

Needs to go back to that routing.

Yeah 10 used to be 1 when the original clubhouse was that house on the corner of the main drag in and Saint Andrews.. Always though it was odd.. Then they built the new clubhouse..
Kinda glad it switched because 10 is such an odd hole to be a starting hole.. Narrow as shite with that immediate dogleg left to green over a creek.. You'll never catch me hitting driver on that hole...

Bad front nine/good back nine = just getting warmed up.
Good front nine /bad back nine = got to confident and took unnecessary risky shots.

I think the first thing is trying to figure out if it's mental or physical. I know I've had rounds that fall apart because I'm scoring better than normal. There's also rounds where I maybe don't eat at the turn or during the round and then get a little tired at the end.

as you get fatigued
I think this is my big issue. I'm not in great shape and my endurance and mental focus wains on the back 9 and especially the last 4-5 holes.
36-42 last time out.
