Trevor's Golf Blog

 Well, an interesting round with three birdies, three pars, and three bogeys but it was enough to win the final tournament of the season.   The overall leader needed to finish sixth or worse for Trevor to win the whole thing but he finished fifth.   Great 18 foot put on #3 resulted in a birdie.   Put a drive on a par four to 20 feet for an easy birdie on #6.   Massive 280 yard drive on #9 led to a birdie as well.

 Well the boy played a decent round but had one big miss - the fifth hole.   It made no sense.   Total duff on the 130 yard par 3.   Hozel shot that went 80 yards left.   He hasn't done that in a long time.   Second shot went of the back of the green.   Third shot was a lob wedge that he chunked.   Two putts from there for a nast double.   He was +1 on the other eight holes though, good enough for second place.

 Although Hank bitched me out for not being able to adequately explain what went wrong in Trevor's last PING Interclub tournament (the course was a complete piece of shit), we had a very productive lesson today.   Hank was very interested in Trevor's set up, with his hands and to make sure the body keeps rotating to keep the club face square on impact.   He also loved Trevor's take backs on his pitches with his lob wedge.

 This was such a weird feeling.   The boy fired a 79, his best ever tournament score for 18 holes, but he double bogeyed a very easy 18th hole so it was a major bummer to end that way.
