Well after a few weeks deliberating on whether or not it was a good idea to put my name in the hat to represent my club in the Pierce Purcell Cup and play in the trials i managed to impress enough to be selected in the Pairs for Sunday mornings Foursomes.....

Its been a month of up and downs and alot of indecision and phone calls from the captains to ask me to reconsider but if im honest im delighted i did.....
I had a few hairy trials where i wasnt hitting the ball particularly well but i think last Sunday evening helped a lot.....
In our monthly medal i had a shocker and was skeptical of going for the trial Sunday evening but to say i was like a different player would have been an understatement......I played out of my skin 4 hrs after id walked off our 18th after getting 0.1 back.....

I had to play in another trial then last night with a different chap with qhom i clicked straight away with and now it turns out that we are paired for Sundays outing.......
Giddy isnt the word :lol:

Just hope that il be able to cam the nerves on the tee's Sunday in front of the people following there chosen club:whistle:
 
Good luck with Sunday! When I teed it up on the 1st for our club against a rival, even though it was just a trial match for both teams, I was surprised at how nervous I felt. The 20 or so people around the 1st tee ratcheted things up somewhat. I just about managed to keep focused on my pre-shot routine, and then picked out a target and swung easy, imagining that I was in the practice field.

Hope it goes well and would be interested to hear how you got on.
 
Just relax max. First (and only) time I played in it I carved the opening tee shot OOB :rofl: I just started to laugh as did my partner which lifted any tension we went on to have a decent enough score so it wasnt too bad. You will be fine and, I would think, like the experience.
 
Good luck with your match. I think you'll enjoy it if you view it with some perspective.

The worst thing that can happen?? A bit of ribbing from team mates.
