I had another good round today - 81 (9 over par) off the way back Blue tees. Included one Birdie but no Eagles this time.

My only eagle this year was when playing a quick 9 holes on my tod. Boomed a drive down the middle of the 16th (playing back 9 holes) and knocked a 6iron to 2 feet. Typical that no one was there to see it

Been playing golf for over 30 years and have never had an Eagle. I have putted for one more than 20 times and have always missed. Well done to you though!

Is "drain" the correct description for tapping in a 3 1/2 ft putt?

Probably not. But I hardly think 'tapping in' is correct either - it certainly wouldn't be a gimmee in a match! Try 'sunk'!
I've converted both a 12 footer (par 5) and a 1 footer (par 4) for eagle and neither were trivial, given the circumstances! The 45 footer eagle putt that lipped out last week would definitely have been a 'drained' one though!

I'm still to bag an eagle, I've been right on the lip of the hole but its still something that has escaped me
Moortown?
Point of order - you can't "drain" a 3 foot putt.
It was actually 3 1/2 to 4 feet and perfectly missable, being on a side slope, but I knocked it quite firmly into the middle of the.hole.Moortown?

Yeah Moortown on the par 5 1st, good drive, slightly messed my 2nd shot up but my 3rd sat next to the hole for a nice birdie start though.

Remember it well.
You were crap after that though,
Nice par on the 18th though, I drained a great long putt with a big break, so I can start & finish well, just need to sort out the other 16 in the middle
