Hi everyone, some of you may remember my post a few days ago about playing in comps and i said i may give 9 hole club night ago to ease me in....well im in!
Played my first club night this evening. Was REALLY nervous on the first tee but it was all a worry about nothing, had a really enjoyable 9 holes, with some great company and now i can't wait for next week.
We went out as fourballs, and i was with a 5 handicapper, an 18 (both around my age) and a boy of about 10. As i have no handicap yet i was given 23 on the first tee(par 3)..and i was the only person to hit the green, and the only one to make par! The 5 handicapper joked that he wished he hadn't give me 23!
The 2nd hole is a long VERY downhill par 5 which is straight for about 220 then very steep down to the green. I stepped up with the honours on the tee, and bombed it, easily clearing the brow, splitting the fairway at which point the 5 handicapper said he REALLY wished he hadn't give me 23! I ended up scoring 11 points over 9 holes and that was with 2 "blobbed holes"
May not be superb stats but i was absolutely ecstatic, as it was my first competition play ever, was with 2 golfers a lot better than myself..and i was incredibly nervous to start off!
Roll on my next competition
