First sub 80 medal round

[Farneyman]

Managed to break 80 for the first time in a medal yesterday with a 10 over 79. Par is 69 and CSS was 72.

Nice wee 1.4 cut to get down to 12.

If only I didn't have that triple bogey 7 down our 16th

Aye pretty tough but managed to keep control of the swing for most of the round. According to HDID only about 16 of the total field broke 80!

Shot my first round of 80 in a medal over 3 years ago so I have had chances before but never converted. Onwards and downwards!

Well done. For everyone's benefit, what do you consider were the keys to your breakthrough?

Good shooting Fabian, with the strong winds did you struggle to keep that sombrero on?

Not sure that any one thing can be the key but thinking a little about it apart from actually getting some lessons and playing golf the following 3 things have helped me greatly.

1. A much slower/controlled swing - not lashing at the ball like I used to
2. Stiff shafted driver (on "loan" from my father in law - not missing as many fairways as I used to or by as much as I did
3. Game Golf - for me it makes me focus and concentrate on each and every shot

Me too. Definitely want to go sub-80 by the end of this season.

Great round - well played Sir.

Great score. Well done! I had a great front 9 but lost it on the back 9 after an argument with some lads on the 10th when they questioned my leaving the course. They said it's against the rules. Found it they were wrong after as we had not held anyone up - in fact we stopped to let a two ball right behind through. Let it affect my game though
