I know that I am being totally unrealistic in thinking that I am familiar with the course because of EA Tiger Woods on Playstation, but I've played that course so many times in the game that it's disturbingly easy to recognize the holes in Golf magazine, or when you look at pictures of the course. I know that the course is about 500 yards longer than anything I've ever played, and that it is probably extremely punishing when you hit into the rough, the sand, the length of the carry over the ocean on the 8th (just the fact that you're hitting over the damn ocean), EVERYTHING about it is probably incredibly difficult. All of that said, I still feel that if I played conservatively, SMART, took my medicine when I was in a bad situation, I could break 100 there. All of the holes are hypothetically reachable for us in regulation. I don't even want to begin thinking about how fast the greens are. But I still think I have a shot at breaking 100 there.Originally Posted by DinanBMW
I've played most of the courses in the North and East Bay so pretty soon I'm going to start working my way down south. I have a rich friend of a friend who always ends up with passes to Pebble Beach, but I'm too scared/embarrassed to go and shoot 120 with a caddy. Anyway, It's gonna be Diablo Creek this Saturday.

they allow carts but its cart path only so its kinda pointless, caddie is the way to go if you want to break 100
im not posting these picks to be a %$*%, but so you guys realize what you are playing on. Sure it is pricey as hell but the quality and prestige is second to none. my best shot was on the 7th hole. A par 3 that plays anywhere from 60-130 depending on the breeze from the ocean. a caddy is needed to tell you what to play it at. I put it about 4 feet from the pinmade my day
I shot a 97 at pebble beach playing from the blues, but if you make it up to pebble beach and want and want to play another round up there i recommend spanish bay ahead of spyglass.
enjoy the pictures and hope to see some of yours
^^thats the picture of the 7th hole…don't know if you can see but thats the whole i put it within about 4 feet

for me, can anyone tell me if there is a "textbook" way to hold your grip?

holy mother @%#!%%% !%@#!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i have never been so happy in my entire life playing a sport ... golf is the greatest game on earth ... i love steal shafts and balls and cups and rough and grass and sand ... FINALLY, after almost two years i have got my drive dead @%#!%%% straight and long as hell ...
i was a banana driver all my life ... at about 175-200 yards my ball would turn right ... i didnt even look at my driver for the past 6 months and hit my 3 wood off the tee ... but after watching the Golf Channel last night I finally fixed my drive ... it's such a simple fix i cant believe i didnt find it sooner ...
Fuzzy Zoeller was on the GC giving tips and one of his tips for slicing was looking down at your grip and identifying your left hand's knuckles (for rightys) ... he said most likely a slicer will not be able to see his knuckles at all at address, and sure enough i couldnt see !%@# ... he said rotate your hand so you can see two knuckles and swing away ... that was it ... i hit the ball so far and so straight today i couldnt believe it was me swinging ... i hit a 520 yard par 5 in 2 going driver 4 iron! the people i was playing with couldnt believe how far i could hit the ball being my size (5'11, 150) ... i am HYPED to play again soon so i can just crush the ball ... i broke 90 for the first time ever without any mulligans or drops ...
