First Round In Six Month - You've 15 Minutes To Give Me Some Pointers

[Spoff]

Game on, final stage in the recovery from my back injury, in 49 minutes I will be stood on the first tee of a local nine hole course.

Given the lack of success of recent range visits I don't think I will be counting my shots today!!!

Smooth back and smooth through and don't try and leather the ball. Enjoy the sunshine as I am stuck in the office (meant to be) working!!

Tempo NOT TEMPER.


Keep it simple and use your instincts.

Good points, can see first tee. Only 4 cars in car park. Short 1st hole. Driver chip birdie. Easy...

Loved it!!!

went round 9 holes in 52m which for a 28 handicapper ain't to bad until you find out the course is very short and three of the par 4's are drivable even for me, one is only 215.

Touch around the greens was very poor, as expected and as usual to be honest. Putting was the biggest surprise, that is usually my weakest skill, but took just 18 putts.

Feeling very stiff as expected this morning so taking it easy today and doing the back exercises from the physio.

Have to say, the advise here helped. I always do try to think about tempo and the like, but reading it 10 minutes before I teed off was a good reminder.

won't be long until you're back hitting 18 holes.
