Played my first round at my new second club Garesfield today, I have been going round in 90s at Matfen for a about a year now with the occasional round below 90. Went out in 40 (2 over) and back in 35 (1 over). 2 birdies, 5 bogeys and 11 pars for a gross 75! Stableford worked out at 53 points which is obscene.

I'm quite glad it wasn't a comp as although I would have loved a big cut it wouldn't have been a very good way to announce myself to a new club!

I look just a little bit special at the minute with a massive cheesy grin on my face!

It was no coincidence that I left my driver in the car as well, 3 wood of the tee is the future!
 
You say garesfield looks like a sale seve comp score too me! :rofl:

Great shooting you'll savour that round for a long time, well played! :thup:
 
Run and hide when word gets out about that score your going to need a suit of armour for protection from the clubs getting thrown at you. Mind you on a plus side you'll be able to sell them on ebay!

Nice scoring amigo!
 
Im not one for calling someone a bandit but if you beat me with that score, I'd have to have a jibe. That's breaking 80 in style.
 
Wow you need to get yourself a sombrero mate :D cos your going to get some flak for achieving that.Infact thats the first time in my golfing life ive heard of a 20 handicapper knocking 15 shots off he's handicap for a round,impressive.......
 
Nice one bud! Either you are alot better than the handicap or just played the game of your life but either way enjoy it mate and now you know you have a single figure golfer in you.

Have a few beers fella and text everyone you know :-)
 
I have to admit that I am one of the sad bitter (but not twisted) folks whose instant reaction is that there is something dishonest about your handicap. My rule of thumb is that the magical net 59 is seen say once every 5 years on the tour. Your net 55 has never been seen before. I would cosy up to the handicap secretary and discretely ask for a cut (actually a wild slash with a machete).

Nevertheless, what a score and well done.
 
53 points!? First of all, well done! Hell of a round, secondly, I'd be putting in a few supplementary cards to get the handicap down before rearing your head in a proper comp! haha
