another step closer to CAT 1

How were the new driver, woods etc.

Faultless.....long and straight.....loving them...used the driver 8 times.....8 fairways hit.....used the 3 wood once with one fairway hit....

Hit all 4 par 3's .......and the remaining 5 holes where I played for position off the tee I hit 4 out of 5 fairways......don't normally keep a track of those stats, but 17/18 I think is probably a record for me.... :thup:

GIR was 14/18........ All in all pretty happy.....a few birdies would have been nice though....:(
 
back to CAT 1 today for about an hour...... :confused:

Board competition today....4 over gross 75 for 38 points.......played out of my skin in tricky conditions....very strong wind and fast greens........

For a while I was joint leading in the clubhouse with only 1 group left to come in.... The other guy on 38 was a 23 h/capper..new member.....plays in our CBL team where he is restricted to 18 and does really well....:confused:

I thought I'd have a chance on countback as I had a level par back 9......but they couldn't split us.....back 9, back 6, back 3, back 1.....both equal.......they got the competitions rule book out, but it didn't stipulate how to differentiate after that......they decided to have a play off........then the last group came in......a guy had 39 points...... :eek:..... Committee were happy!!
I was gutted, but not as gutted as I was when they closed the comp......CSS went down!!!!!!! Only a 0.2 cut and stuck on 5.5

.....the comp has me at 5.4 on HDID but it's wrong as they hadn't closed off yesterday's medal where I had played like a prize numpty and copped a 0.1 increase.

they've now sorted it, but HDID still wasn't right when I last looked.....comp shows 5.4 but in my golf it's 5.5......

Robbed on 2 fronts today........... And Watford (my wife's team) just lost.........might get drunk!!!! :cheers:
 
Cheer up Mate - at least you're going the right way.
Got another Stableford wednesday - 5.6 has a ring to it.......:mmm::mmm::(

Well played Rick, I wouldn't be disappointed, you had a top knock and it sounds like your in great form. I reckon its just a matter of time till CAT 1 !!
 
At least you resemble a golfer. It will come Rick and hopefully you'll get there, stay there and kick on even lower. Shame about the play-off at the club, that would have been an interesting climax. As for the other play-off... less said the better
 
just enjoy the extra shot on stroke index 6 Rick cos I doubt you will have it long

now just enjoy the alcoholic beverages :cheers:

Hey that's a great point Steve......I've got my 2nd round Trilby Tour knockout tomorrow night, so will have 1 less shot to give away.

Drinks are going dow nicely........... :cheers:
 
It's all going to come up smelling of Rick any time soon, your playing beautifully this year. My looks and your game and we are a whole man!

Nice one!
 
Well in Rick there's nothing worse than thinking its done then boom somebody comes in and blows you out the water.

Lets hope once you get there you stay there and not go backwards :o
