  I was having a perfect round in the Cabo-Del-Sol Ready Go, even eagled a hole & best of all, i scored my first double eagle from legend tee's on front 9, back 9 i birdied every single hole until i got to 18th, i had nice 136 yard approach, took shot, only for meter to pause and as usual, i automatically react and press early, this now puts me on top of the shelf above pin, not where you want to be on this hole, even by tapping my putt, it still rolls for miles, ending up stopping me from getting my first 54 any where.  55 not bad though, (but been there got the t-shirt previously)  Good job i double eagled a hole to keep my smiling....

  Double Eagle...(but a bit 5hit having to wait 30 secs watching an ad nowadays just to watch replay that should load in couple of seconds!!)

  Damn! Not again. But for that one hole.

  How do you get metered and still hit the green? Sounds like you barely missed a ding to me.

   

  Nice pants, btw. Nice round, too.

  pressing too early to react to the pause, made my shot go left of pin and ended up rolling onto top of green some how, and not below it, i don't know how the heck it reached the top as i had under hit it any way to land short, & usually a slice would come up short as well. (please don't say when i scrolled to different club, caddy didn't register the club change, but i checked & double checked)

  such a FIGJAM. Do you ever make a post that isn't talking yourself up. Seriously if you want to complain about your metered shot go ahead but no need to post your scorcard and basicly saying but look how good I am.

  LOL. Wasn't me, Chris, I didn't say it.  I do have a question for you regarding the discussion earlier this week. Did you take anything away from that that helped you with the 55? I remember you saying it might get you to 54 so I'm curious if you changed anything.

  Thanks.
