Stableford today and undoubtedly the best I have played since the start of the season. First counting card since April.

Tee to green was very good, in no trouble at all, but could barely hole a putt, I had 5 3 putts…..might have to try this Aimpoint malarkey.

Was round in 77, for the easiest 8 over I can think of and it could have been so much better as on 4 of the 3 putts the 2nd putt lipped out.

Monthly Stableford today...course was busy.
When we teed off at 11.30 there were 4 groups waiting behind us.
A 2 ball in front of us and a 3 in front of them.....
The 2 ball..
A...barely hit a fairway all the way round..they spoke on the tee and the green otherwise they were 70 yards apart..
B..never got close to the 3 ball
C. Walked so slowly..I tried matching their speed and nearly fell over..
D. Walked off after 16....so they weren't even in the comp.

We almost spent as much time standing still as we did walking
My joints are screaming for mecy and tightening up as I type..

The golf was average at best...not a good front 9..13 points and loads of really really nice breaks....
Good back 9 of 19 points but the Index is on the rise...0.6 up to 6.2.
Each division is going to be won with 40 or more points...little wind and soft greens = good scoring.
Fragger a little better with 34 ..God I wish I could have that many shots just once......
More tomorrow...if I can move which is by no means a certainty right now....

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner

Been a decent weekend of golf

Lovely short weather across both days

Saturday

Club match - giving 8 and 9 shots respectively whilst my playing partner got 10

Lost the first with them getting a shot

I then decided to birdie - 2, 3 , 4 , 5 and 6 to be 4 up after 6 - pp won 2 of the next 3 for us to be 6 up after 9 , a half on 10 ( boooooo ) but a win on 11 and 12 gave us a nice 8&6 win - team overall won 4 1/2 to 1 1/2

Managed to finish the round 4 under

Today swindle - feeling a touch tired but squeezed out a level par round for 36 points

Just the 12 points behind the winner

Played Sat & Sun as a single going out well after and behind a 2 day comp, so no expectations of pacey rounds
3;44 on Saturday so plenty of waiting around for 33pts
2.04 Sunday, millionaire golf the whole way but 2 shots worse (double stroke pen on 14th) Which I'll take since the course was set up a good bit tougher for the 2nd day of the comp

PH here on Thurs so a 7am tee booked & (hopefully) finished while you lot are still Zzz'ding

Played Saturday in the weekly stableford.
16 points at the turn, had a six on the third (incl. a penalty for an unplayable), but all the rest were 4s and 5s.
5 points coming back, incl. four sevens and an eight.
Bloody game.

Play at Sand Moor today, which I prefer to its more illustrious neighbours Moortown and Alwoodley, the course was in excellent conditions, very dry and the green were good, although there were 3 holes closed due to drainage work.
I mostly played well apart from a couple of 3 putts and also a couple of bad irons from nice positions

 

[SteveW86]

Managed to squeeze 18 in early this morning, not quite as nice a day as yesterday weather wise and there was a stiff breeze too. Not quite the same ball striking as yesterday, but scored 1 better for a 76.

2 very different ways of getting it round though.

Was lucky enough to get a freebie at Bush Hill Park today - my mate won it in a team event at our club - I wasn't on his team but someone who was pulled out injured so I was invited to take his place! It was a bit rainy but warm. Course was quite muddy in places but some interesting holes. A short course but some annoyingly long walks from greens to the next tee.

My front nine was pretty good. Recovered from blobbing the par 5 6th (thanks to a trademark enormously sliced drive) with three straight pars for a 17 point front nine. Struggled more on the back nine. Blobbed the 10th, another par 5, after some bunker trouble. There were several holes near the end where we had no idea where to hit off the tee - definitely a course you'd play better the second time once you know where to go. Had a couple of doubles caused by missing greens and leaving myself a chip out of wet grass and mud over a bunker. So only mustered 13 points on the back nine in the end.

Beat my mate 2&1 in the match the though - two wins over him in two days. My strong front nine had me 2 up, he levelled it up after 10 & 11 and he took the lead after the 14th, but I won 15, 16 & 17 to take the victory.

Just back from St Andrews having played New, Jubilee and Castle. Also sneaked in 9 holes in Anstruther. Great trip and weather was kind to us.

Good to catch up with Forummer Jimaroid.Could do with a rest but now in Amsterdam for Deep Purple.

Really good fun though and lovely weather.
