Well, I finally did it, I broke 100 this past Saturday at West Sayville golf course. I shot 97 by playing a respectable front 9 and a really good back nine. Fresh off of my lesson this past Thursday to help my horrible driving I was able to hit 5 fairways and 4 greens enroute to a 97! I even birdied the par 4 eighteenth by hit a drive into the middle of the fairway, cutting the corner of a dog leg, and putting a nine iron on the green. All I wanted to do was get the putt close so I could make par and,  as I thought at the time, shoot 99. I hit the ball and reallized that I pushed it inside of my intended line only to watch it drop in the cup for a round ending birdie. It wasn’t until I got home later and entered the score into digitaldivot.com that I realized I had miscounted and had really shot 97.

I only had 2 penalty strokes. My horrific first drive and a ball that barely missed going over the water on 16. I hit some really good shot from the tee esspecially on the par 3s. I hit 3 of the 4 in regulation and pared those that I did. My bad shots with my driver were also still very playable. Still tons of room for improvement but I feel super confident in most aspects of my game which can only mean good things!
