Comp today, 3 balls
First hole, par 5, our group all hit drives down the middle and played quickly to the green from there, no looking for balls or messing around
Group behind were waiting to hit their 3rd shot when we were on the green FFS.
We have a 8 minute gap between tee times.
Chased...
My course (in North Yorks) was re-done this year and most lost between 1 and 2 shots.
I was told that the initial ratings were quite soft to ease people and clubs into the new process. The re-ratings are tougher (effectively giving you fewer shots for your handicap).
In Yorkshire, you can...
62 -10 (professional)
63-9 (Amateur)
I was ahead of course record pace in the club championship (-6 through 10 holes) but then melted under the pressure!
First time playing Moortown
What a place. Proper course, lovely people, quick greens and some absolutely lovely par 3s.
Highlight was a 7w from 185 to 10ft on the last hole.
Entry to the Logan Trophy at Rockcliffe Hall in July. £95 for 2 rounds, practise round and final 18 on the Sunday if I make the cut (I won't).
Should be a good experience and it's off the white tees there, not the silly ones that are miles back ..
