43 points but only 5th place

[full_throttle]

Really disappointed now, having just checked Masterscoreboard to find my 43 points had been overtaken and only being good enough for division runner-up and 5th overall.

So another 1.6 off my handicap which now sits at 22.4.

43 points is banging, but only 5th place, were you playing off the reds? what the heck did the winner shoot.

 

[full_throttle]

44 points took 1st and second 43 took 3rd, 4th and 5th. CSS was 39points.

Cheers

Did the winner hollow tine the greens with his spurs on the way round?



Well done on the deserved cut

Blimey, 38 usually romps division 1 and 2 at my place and 40 is usually enough even for div 3.

Eeepa Eeepa handale handale. You need to get a few 'taches from the fancy dress shop for the lads. Job lot on Sombrero's asnd start a club.
Well played, can only assume 1st to 4th were in the same fourball?

Not that unusual in my view. Nice score though.

Well it was the equivalent of 40 points with a "normal" CSS of 36 points.

Rob,i feel your pain.I thought i'd be 1st and you 2nd (on countback) can't believe i scored 43 and only managed 2nd in Div 1 and 3rd overall !! and to add insult to injury,the guy who birdied the last 2 holes in last weeks winter league pairs,when me and you were dormie 2 up only managed 24 points,and the guy who managed to play to 2 with a handicap of 15 in our 2nd winter league match, only scored 14 points !!! wheres the justice ? lol

The winning pair played Sunday morning, which makes it harder as in my opinion conditions were more favourable.
Never mind I was club house leader (in my division) for almost 24 hours.lol

OMG where is this place?

 

[ArnoldArmChewer]

Extraordinary, but well done senor.

Well played Rob, glad to see your handicap going in the right direction Keep it up.

TBH, at this time of year, although the courses play longer due to lack of roll, the greens are softer and will hold almost any shot - so, points tallies can be high. At my club, the avaerage points are usually 2 to 3 points higher than in the summer where greens are hard and much faster and your ball can roll into trouble off the fairways.
