Oh, I've had to correct a few people about this. He's a decent player, but ffs, it's an amateur event with some professionals playing.

The group of old boy regulars trying to get others to start on the 6th tee (next to the 1st) and "queue jump" so they could have the first few holes to themselves.

Can't do the 36 pts at the moment, but I'm good for the rest of it. Nothing like a bad putting round to ruin your38pts in today comp.
36 putts absolutely pathetic. The 4 putt on the 5th was spectacular.
I love using them in winter, much easier to hit driver off a mat than the deckMats

I’m happy to hit it off the tee
The Wind today was brutal, my face actually felt burnt it was that strong 
My inability to hit irons into greens, I’m actually on the fairway most of the time giving me great opportunities

It was brutal at nairn
Inverness, It was a last minute decision to go out.
Been a while since I’ve played in that conditions, just difficult to judge anything.
Was warm enough once I got going.
Forgot my battery for my trolley as well
A trolley to day was a hinderence most of the time, Robert had his rain hood on the bag and it acted like a sail down windInverness, It was a last minute decision to go out.

Bloody course is half frozen again....

Medal tomorrow will probably be NQ

Was out walking the dog
at 7.30am and it wasn't too bad, when I watched BBC weather Carol said it was going to get worse from lunchtime. Was OK still at 9am then blowing half hour later, was suppose to be cycling this afternoon, but giving that a miss

Starting off great only for my game to fall apart after 6 or 7 holes.
This has been a recurring thing for the last few weeks. I have no idea what's causing it, but it's driving me nuts.
Today is a case in point. Went to the practice ground for a warm-up/confidence boost before playing. Must have hit 60 balls, 90% of them hit really well, the rest ok (fats, but direction ok). Right thru the bag from hybrid to gap wedge.
Go out on the course. Hit one bad shot holes 1-6. Pars and bogies. Happy with that.
On the 7th, hit an ok drive, but duff my second. Duff my 3rd. Scramble a bogey.
8th, hit another ok drive. Then duff my second. Then shank my third. Then shank my 4th. Pick up.
9th horrible slice off the tee. reload, duff it. Pick up.
10th horrible hook drive. Shank second. Wild 3rd into trees. Hack out. Shank 4th. Pick up, go home in foul mood.
That's a bit of an extreme example, but sadly not that untypical.

Green keepers cutting the tees and the putting the markers down pissed. Why?

Slow playing partners in today’s competition. I mentioned on the 4th tee we’d lost 2 holes but no effort was made to catch up. In fact i think their pre shot routines actually took longer. It’s been a long time since I got annoyed over slow play.
I’m looking for new 54 and 58 degree wedges - probably the cbx 2’s to match my 50 degree one
not many about and those that are on eBay are described as “demo clubs” when they’re clearly fitting clubs with some sellers trying to hide the adaptor in the photos

I've got a 50+54 CBX2...I like them. I have a Ping 60 with 6 bounce when I want a really soft or high shot. I was thinking about replacing them this spring...but I think I might go another year. Trying to talk myself into or out of a new Ping 430 5+9 wood at the moment. Stupid amount of money....
