First time I've played eighteen holes since I broke 100 and the end of April. Was hoping to break 100 again to prove to myself that it wasn't a fluke. Ended up finishing on 91, Par is 68 so still 23 over but moving in the right direction. Absolutely delighted that practice is evidentially paying dividends now. Almost managed a double free front 9 having 2 pars and 6 bogeys on the front 9 with a solitary double coming on the 9th after smashing my tee shot O.O.B. Driver started misbehaving a bit on the back nine sadly. Been hitting it really well lately so I'm not too worried. Does leave the thought of "what if..?" lingering in my head though. :whistle: Managed to get a cracking tan as well which is a nice bonus. Now if only I can move somewhere sunnier than Aberdeen I might be able to play rounds like this more than once a year :clap:
 
Next step is to leave the driver in the bag and drop down to a 3 wood/hybrid/long iron off the tee and watch your scores tumble as you hit more fairways :thup:
 
For sure. My driver is usually very consistent and straight but I need to learn to make the decision to drop it when I stop hitting it well.
