Sorry to bask in the after-glow, but I have to report on one of, if not the, best rounds of my life.
On Saturday gross 68 off 10.
I had 3 birdies, which in hindsight was poor as I has 12 very gettable birdie putts but tee to green I cant remember playing so well. And I won the comp, first win for about 17 years, mind you until last year hadnt played for 16yrs.
I know the grumps on here will say winter golf, using ,mats, holding greens etc...but I dont care.....the hard part is keeping at a similar standard from now on.
Playing on Wednesday at Fleetwood, great links, so hopefully will have more of the same.
 
12 birdie putts you missed plus the 3 you got, makes 15 greens in regulation? Awesome.
What's your new handicap?

Tee to green havent ever played so well even when i was off lowish single figures

Checked How Did I Do and says 10.4 which I was off before, hoping for a decent cut though
 
Good start to the year, well played.

Slightly surprised that your Club would cut you off Winter Mats though ?

At my own course, if its not off Whites, and in a qualifying Medal/Stableford, you dont come down.
Roll on 1st Comp :-)
