Nothing feels more wasteful than hitting an approach within 6' and not holing the bird.

I know I won't get too many of those opportunities a round so it really hurts to leave one

Yeah let's not talk about putting. I am completely lost with that.

Santa Maria's greens were absolutely perfect Friday





So it makes sense that they are punching them today

Yeah one of my pars was a nine iron into the green. Eight feet from the pin, left birdie way short. Almost choked the par too but I got it just enough.

Why are they punching again? Or are they just verticut-ing?

Feel like when I go light grip, I spin the face right at the end and spin the ball a little or the face closes or opens, rolls it perfect end over end but on the wrong line.

Have trouble trying to use my shoulders and make a good pendulum swing.

I stuck 3 or 4 shots last Thursday within 10 feet and missed all the birdie putts. Very frustrating. Coulda been a 70s round on a new course but ill take my 83.

That makes your course super duper reputable.

My course uses the 1/4" spikes as opposed to the 1/2" and after 3 days this week, they putted pretty well, though still a little bumpy

our greens are in the best shape of the year right now after punching about 4-5 weeks ago. we have had a bit of rain which has helped. the rough has really grown up too so there are penalties a plenty if you miss the fairway. some guys were losing balls just off the fairway in high grass when we knew where they landed.
