Congrats, Puma!
That’s really exciting!!

I almost had one 130 out but mine went in and popped out.
Seriously what the hell…
I got a birdie out though.

Oh, yeah.
They are more like 3.5 to 4 hour rounds.
Longer than 4 is consider as 5.5 here.
Those golfers were moving.

Yesterday was exceptionally quick round due to the weather condition.
Hot temperature and few showers scared off people so we were able to finish in 4 hours.
Normally can take anywhere between 4.5...

After serious ass kicking in Ireland, everything felt so much easier.
New personal best today!

Avoid full wedge swing the whole trip.
Lots of bump and runs and putting outside greens.

My favorite was probably Waterville.
Old Head was beautiful to look at but Waterville is a golf course.
Good shots are rewarded and bad shots are penalized.
A very fair course.

We played and it was nice.
But it really was a struggle.

It was suppose to rain the whole time at Waterville but the weather held up once again, sprayed some mist and that was it.
But Tralee had 40-45mph wind that turned into boarder line unplayable.

Lahinch, County Clare.
Doonbeg tomorrow.

We stayed at Perryville House in Kinsale.
I came to conclusion I don’t like Irish bacon (too salty) and don’t care much for black pudding.
We are staying two nights in Killarney at The Ross....

Hogs Head helicopters were flying in to Old Head for lunch.
Owned by 3 Winged Foot members.
We are trying to get a tee time on our resting day but not guaranteed.
...

Bellybunion tomorrow and Waterville day after.
Still have another 7 days in Ireland.
I can’t get enough of this country!
...

Touring through Ireland.

The Island Club.

Good weekend rounds.
Shot 86 on Saturday and 89 on Sunday.
Handicap is down to 18.4 but my head game is still very shaky.
One more 9 today after work and time to pack!

Had a really nice twilight 9.
I was too afraid to use wedge around 80 so replaced with 2/3 PW.
After the last hole, hit handful of 60 yard shots and all went 45 right.
I think it’s in my head.
...

We are playing the Castle in St. Andrews and Saturday and Sunday Open Championship.
Flying to Dublin the day after the open and start from The Island, The European, The Old Head, Dooks, Ballybunion,...

I should’ve been more specific.
I’m good with green side chipping but 50-90 yard full swing 50, 56 and 60 are the problem.

I have few more rounds before we head over.
I’ll try all your advices.
I’m willing to try anything!!!

I don’t have the luxury to take few months off.
We are heading to Scotland and Ireland for 10 rounds of golf in 8 days.
I’m so screwed.

Wedge shank showed up.
I’m freaking out.

Very windy round at The Summit at Armonk.
Game is coming together nicely and new driver is finally start hitting.

Quiet around here.
Hope everybody's getting some rounds in!!

We were at Augusta National Women’s Amateur Tournament on Saturday.

Tiger’s name was on the scoreboard!

It’s like “Take it easy”, you never can take it easy.
“Calm down”, you can never calm down.

My teacher says I use why too much upper body and it can cause back injury.
She wants me to swing simple, easy and compact.
That simple, easy and compact is not so easy to do.
She’s doing it, but...

I’ll look into it!
Thank you!!

I don’t think swing your swing is Korean concept.
Not sure if this is the right path for my natural swing but I’m gonna give it a try.
I just don’t understand why my body wouldn’t move the way I...

City cat life!

Winter was long and shitty in New York this year.
It was warm until December.
Then January hits with (wet) snow storm, 40's to follow to melt everything and repeat the cycle until mid March....

We are heading down in 12 days to see Women's Amateur Tournament.
Been to Augusta few times but it blows my mind every single time I enter the property.
You're going to have an epic trip!
Enjoy!!

Thank you for the photos and stories, Puma!
I was looking forward to hear back from you!!
Glad you had another successful trip to Bandon.
I can't wait for mine again.
Those gorse flowers!!!!

Gorse flowers are blooming right now.
I’m so jealous you get to see this!!!

Me and my boyfriend asked ourselves the same question and also asked by others.
The answer is, we can't pick one over the other.
Bandon has the breathtaking ocean view.
St. Andrews has the history...

I am so jealous!!!
Hope the rain holds up for you.

So their head pro Grant Rogers does Links Lesson $50 per player.
It could be a good introduction or reminder before your rounds.

Links...

We are back in Scotland as well.
The Open at the Old Course then Ireland to get some rounds in.
Can't wait to hear about your trip!

Are you in the city???

Probably worth more than my car but I’m lovin’ it!!
