Yesterday I went up and practiced. I Got my driver. It's beast. It goes ten yards further in the air than my old driver and it rolls ten yards further than my old driver. It's great. I was getting bored so I went to play at 3. I only played 5 holes because I had to go. Today I went up and was immediatly hitting every club in my bag great. I was putting great. I was even chipping great. I got a tee time at 11:40 with 3 guys whos names I have forgotten. When I got out on the course I sucked. I was fading every shot instead of drawing it like I normally do. In one day I went from a draw to a fade. I couldn't hit a fairway. I shot a front 9 42 and my struggles continued on the back where I shot an 83. I went back to the range and hit my driver for about an hour. I had it figured out but once I went back out on the course I was fading it again. I was hitting the ball great though. I parred one, bogeyed 2, almost birdied 3, birdied 4, parred 5 and 6, and then went bogey, bogey, bogey. I 3 putted 7 because I was thinking too much about the put and I was afraid to hit it too far so I left it short. My chip on 8 was too long and I hit my drive in front of trees on a side hill on 9. Not the way I wanted to finish up but I played great. On holes 3, 4, 5, and 6 my approach shots were all inside 15 feet. I'll probably get a lesson so I can figure this fade thing out.

I haven't blogged for awhile because I have had basketball non stop for the last 3 days. Before this weekend I went up a second time with bailey. I played decent and shot an 82. It wasn't a good 82 though. I don't feel like when I hit a ball I can just hit it. My swing is not grooved. The next day I went up and played with Jesse and Ryan. I started off great but finished with a 46. The worst round Ive had in months. I'm going up today and now that basketball is over almost every day.

On Sunday I only went up for about 4 hours so I just practiced. My shot is getting better but it isn't there yet. Yesterday I practiced for about 2 hours and tried to play but I got stuck behind a bunch of foursomes. I tried to skip ahead and I didn't see anyone for awhile but I eventually got stuck behind more foursomes. after that I had my mom pick me up. I'm going golfing with Jeremy Wetherbees brother Bailey today. It should be fun.

Yesterday I spent the whole day golfing. I golfed 24 holes and practiced the rest. I didn't play good. My shot was still inconsistent and I was hitting the ball short. I shot an 83. Today I went up at 1 and practiced until 4. I got fit for a new driver. It's a Titleist D3 9.5 degree. I love it. It should be here sometime next week. I only played 6 holes because some guys wouldn't let me play through. I was hitting the ball great on the range and finally got my distance back. My putting and chipping is a little iffy. My 50 yard shots are money though. Yesterday I spun the ball back 5 feet from 30 yards. I spun my sand wedge off the green on 12. It's pretty cool.

I went up for the first time in about 3 weeks. I sucked at first. I couldn't get the ball of the ground. The clubs felt heavy to me. After about an hour I got it together. My putting is still good. My chipping is great. I played 3 holes at 4 because that's all I had time for. I got par on all 3. Schools out. Finally.
