Golf Random Irritations

It is there, it just takes a few attempts to work out what it is you need to click. Apologies if this is patronising but it took me a number of goes to get it so I've been there.

For example, go to The Lounge, it brings up all of the threads. By each thread is the avatar of the last poster. Next to that is your own small avatar. That is what you tap, your own avatar.

Don't go into the thread, you need to stay on the main page, whether out of bounds, lounger, rules etc.

If it still isn't there 🤷‍♂️. Something must be blocking it on your device.

The margins that affect our golf game are so fine that they might as well be random trial and error. I went from shooting 79 on Saturday to 90 on Sunday - couldn't hit a drive to save my life for three holes on the front nine. Then I thought I was feeling a little bit stuck, so I shuffled my feet an inch, maybe half an inch further away from the ball to give my arms a little more room - then I hit three perfect drives on the back nine after that. But how had I shuffled too near the ball in the first place? And with the fairways being as dry as they are - on Sunday I got every bad bounce going, never knew where my ball was ending up - on Saturday it was a dream, they just ran nicely. Sheer luck.

My mate and betterball partner was absolutely crushing his drives in the match yesterday - one of the best driving performances I've ever seen from him. In the end he admitted he'd taken the £500 odd G440 head off, and put his old G425 head onto the new shaft from the 440. God knows why the old one would work better but on this evidence, it did. It's just random. Infuriating game. :LOL:
 
Had a target best ever score I wanted to beat this year as my big goal.

Round going well. Made the mistake of checking score after 17 … only need a bogey on 18 to do it. Great drive off 18th tee too flying over dangerous distant fairway bunker and we’ve just got a 9i in to the green off the fairway. Going to do it!

Shank 9i, chop out of rough into green side bunker, splash out of that to fringe then 3 putt for a triple bogey 7.

Absolute bottle job. Now I know how Tommy F felt last week 😭😭😭
 
Still waiting on the putter I ordered. I gave them a poke .. for sure I ordered around mid summer and the Swedes are still hung over but 5 days and then the shipper who has had the order since the 25th updated that it was in Eindhoven on the 1st July … I don’t think Covid is responsible for this !
 
Weather again. Booked in today just after 4 with my brother in law, booked it on Sunday without checking the weather forecast as the news kept going on about a heatwave. Also love how the wind picks up just for those 4 hours I'm due to be on the course. At least the course will be getting some needed water today.
