Golf Game

I'm loving my new set of Powerbilt Grand Slam Irons. My 8-iron broke last year, but since Powerbilt clubs have a lifetime warranty, I sent my 8-iron in to get fixed like the other 2 I had broken before. I kept trying to get my club back until finally just short of a year later, I got ahold of someone who told me that they had lost my 8-iron and would exchange me for a brand new set for my old set. Score!
Anywho, I'm smacking these clubs extremely well. Friday, I played with my dad against a couple friends of his in the scramble at Scott Lake Country Club. We scored very well on the front but my putting quickly deteriorated on the back and we ended up losing 5 bucks overall. The whole match came down to the last hole where if me and my dad won, we would have won about 12 bucks, if we tied, we would have owed one dollar and if we lost that whole is where the 5 bucks came in. Needless to say, after I sliced my drive into a tree and OB, and dad hooking his to the edge of the swampy area to the left, we were toast.
I went out to Scott Lake again last night with Sharma. We played the East 9 at about 6:45. The course was clear and very relaxing. Before I left my house, I switched up putters in my bag to see how my old putter felt. Perfect! Exactly the switch I needed for my short game. I wasn't making anything spectacular, but I was hitting every put within a short distance of the cup, which I had no trouble knocking down. Approach shots were working too. The only 2 areas that still need work are my chipping and I need to figure out how to be more consistent off the tee. My drives are going long, but they need to be straighter.
We'll see how this weekend goes. I've got a game with Lynch against Vega and Liz Clement.
