Played yesterday morning.
Had an indifferent round, started bad, got to the turn in 53, first 5 holes of the back 9 I played at 4 over (which for me is brilliant) then went back to playing like a complete tool/
How do I become more consistent? I honestly think I could get my handicap alot lot lower if I could be more consistent. Whats the secret?
 
sadly my back not up to playing again this am having seized up yesterday :( gonna be spending time on the foam roller and hopefully ok in a day or two again
 
32 points today.

20 points going out but 4 blobs on the back nine including three on the bounce on 10,11 & 12.

Looks like 0.1 and up to 16.
 
I'm going up 0.2 this weekend :(
Ha ha same here :eek: Played 14 holes today and no consistency at all hit some lovely shots but equally hit some that my dog could have played better :o, got two 18 hole qualifiers over the next two days and unless a miracle happens I will be an 11 handicapper by Tuesday morning :(
 
Edging closer to that target handicap :thup:

:o
I think that target is nearly a reality although with the amount of qualifiers I have 13 may be the new target :rofl:

To think this time 10 years ago I was a 5 handicap :(
 
Nothing wrong with 11 handicappers.:whistle: and to think that 37 years ago I was off 6.:D

Just coming into your prime Rich, winning big events like the senior mixed greensomes midweek stableford :thup:
 
So far I've played the Friday nine hole with some of my best golf ever and the monthly stableford yesterday with some of my worst golf for a long time. Swing changes are starting to bed in but yesterday they felt as unnatural as they did when I started using them. One highlight of the round was on our par 5 17th. As the ground has dried out the course is starting to run nicely and the layout of the hole means I can't hit my driver as it normally blocks out my second shot so I hit a 4 iron layup ready for another 4 iron or 5 wood to the green. Both my playing partners for the day had driven with drivers I hit a great shot that flew like a bird passing both their drives, one by about 10 yards and the other, hit by a chap who thinks he hits a ball as far as I do, by 70 yards. He then hits his second shot just short of the green and walks over to me and tells me he hit a 3 wood as I'm taking my 9 iron out of the bag. He looked even more annoyed when I hit my shot onto the green but ran out the back and I turned and said maybe I should have taken a pitching wedge. Had to pitch sideways as it was very close to a tree but chipped in for a birdie while he only made a bogey from 5 yards short of the green.
I'm not going to mention the other 17 holes. :rolleyes:
