new quickly improving power hitter off 16 came in with a net 63, (par 68 Css67 ) he won on the previous Wednesday with a net 59, now down to 13.5 !! but was beaten on countback of last nine by an established 14 handicapper who must have had one of those days, as he had an eagle at the par 5...

Lump, I think being a former slicer is similar to being a former alcoholic. You're probably not slicing at the moment but there is always the opportunity to backslide! You should probably describe your self as a Slicer that chooses not to. (at the moment)

While enjoying my nightly soak and indulging in my recently arrived GM I came across the superb picture (page 54) of Bubba hitting his Masters winning shot from deep in the trees (but not in knee length rough like some members of the forum thought he should have done). Like all iconic photos...

thanks for trying to help science boy, I have resorted to my wife's new laptop for this reply, which links wirelessly off the main computer and I cant believe how much quicker it is. this has windows 10. I will have to try to overcome my phobias and understand the insides of computers as well...
