2013 Handicap challenge.....

[Deleted member 1740]

Well done Stu....have you got an ESR coming as well?

Thanks Rick, I don't think there's another cut coming though I think I am on the handicap committees radar now.

Had a 0.1 back then pinched a 0.6 cut, so now down to 12.8.......getting there!

the ESR prompt should be automatic through the software as long as you have beaten CSS by 4 or more twice in your last 9 rounds.....(assuming the person closing the comp accepts it).

The more you beat CSS and the smaller the timing interval will determine how big the additional ESR cut is.

What have you beat CSS by recently?

I'm down to 7.2 now after starting the season at 9.5. Revised my aim from 7-5 due to having several months of playing left but will be happy if I finish the season anywhere below 6.5 :thup:

I've been playing to my handicap though I've had a 40pts and 38 pts over the last 5 rounds aswell as my -5 hcap on Sunday.

I'm going up the club later so I'll try and find out if I will be getting another cut.

If CSS didn't go down on your 40 point round, you should get one...was it a Qualifier?...which course do you play at?

 

[DappaDonDave]

H/C now down to 20!

Cracked 100 for the first time and hit 92. Would've been 89 if it wasn't for a disaster on the 18th! Net 89 though so all good!

 

[ScienceBoy]

12.3 and rising

All 3 cuts have been qualifiers. I got cut 0.9 for 38pts 1.2 for 40pts and 1.5 for my 82 -5 aswell as a couple of 0.1's.

I've not had any other cuts in the last 6 rounds.

16 weeks of no college and with the golf course being a 5 minute walk away i am still thinking i can get my handicap down to 7.
been playing a lot better as well and have a lot of tournaments coming up

Which course Stu?

I hate this thread. Got myself my first handicap at 24. No chance of getting to 18 this year!!!!

Ok mate, checked your results on HDID.....the 40 point round you had was only a 0.9 cut, not 1.2 as the CSS came down by one, otherwise you would had an ESR cut.
The good news is you are on the ESR watch list thanks to your 5 under round......beat CSS by 4 or more in the next few rounds and you'll get one.....good luck mate, rooting for you!

 

[mcbroon]

Down to 9.6. Single figures is a sniff away and I would have made it today if I hadn't messed up the last 3 holes.

Next time...

 

[Hendo007]

Oh dear, I have gone up to 10.5. I might as well pay H4H now.

Don't worry Richart normal service has been resumed... Was shocking yesterday !! Back up to 9.8

Easy peasy with some structured practice. I've gone from 28 to 20 in about 3 months just by finding a consistent swing and playing more often.

When you go to the driving range. Concentrate on what you are doing, not just bashing balls as hard as possible.

Thanks mate,I've been playing decent overall but for some reason I'm struggling on the back 9 and I don't know why. If I can get my game sorted on the back 9 then the cuts will come.
