DeeJay
Club Champion
Just back in from my first round of the season and first round at my new club and as usual with scottish weather, we had 4 seasons in 1 day!
Started off the round with it being dull and overcast with a bit blustry wind, withing 3 holes the sun had broke through and then 3 holes later it was snowing/hail!?! Took shelter in the clubhouse before starting the 7th (shower was over within 10 minutes) and then it was sunny but a tad windy for the rest of the round.
My round was up and down, took me a couple holes to settle but once I got into my Iron play was brilliant, delighted with my new Nike MachSpeed Irons! Putting needs worked on and so does my driving which I always knew, on the back 9 tried my 5w off the tea and was hitting 200-230 on average and was straight which is good to know, means I have something to use off the tee while trying to find the right driver for me.
Ended up hitting a 101 but my card ended up with: 9, 8, 7, 7, 7, and a few 6s on there.
The 7+'s were due to wild tee shots lost, wish I had just taken my 5w out the bag earlier and I could have posted a decent score!
Overall, delighted to be back golfing, the new club is a great course and clubhouse is immaculate (watched some of the football before and after the round), my Iron play is really good considering a gap of about 8months since I last played, just need to get used to my short chipping around the green. Shall be working on my Tee shots and putting over the next few weeks!
