Had a very windy round today with a gross 80 but the round was a bit special in the wind today. Drove the green on the 12th to pin high on the fringe over 330 yds, just shows how windy it was today I normally hit a good one here 260/70.

Into the wind was very very hard going and a shot to the 14th (cross wind) saw the ball go from a line on bunker to left of green to pin high 10 yds off the right of green (no it wasnt sliced, I dont slice PW)

But my putting was superb today 26 putts and 3 putts from fringes. One double bogey and three birdies today a really good solid round in high wind,even a couple of par 4scould only reach in 3 in head wind and 3 par 5s were also hard work.

The secret I think was to change my game a little and do shorter back swing with everything but Driver and whip through the ball, not easy to do for me as I cant feel things properly but the extra concentration on short back swing and whip through seemed to help so all in all I am a happy bunny today. :D

Well done on the putt count. I really need to start counting mine, I reckon i'm taking about 36 putts per round atleast.

I might get me one of these V-easy thingys....

Any idea of what they will retail at?

Not sure if it helps with feel and distance as i always seem to have the right line but never the correct weight.... i either hit well past or well short.
