Great game today...

Played in the Seaford Seniors Open today, betterball stableford off 3/4's.
Really windy down here this morning, knew it was going to be tough as the course is a bit exposed to the elements.
I was playing off 10 my mate Ray was off 11. 18 points out, 19 back in for a 37 point total. We were in the first group out at 8.30am and were clubhouse leaders for a while, but were then chipped into 2nd place by a couple of guys with 39 points. Another couple of groups came in with 38 so we were just counted out of the prizes.
But really pleased with the way I played. Only messed up one drive (par 5 into the wind going for a big 'un and topped it about 100 yards up the fairway) but played a couple of decent recovery shots and just lipped out for my par.
Made a lovely birdie down the 9th, 185 out into a stiffish breeze and hit a raking 7 wood that almost went in, stopped about 3" from the hole.
Ray played really well as well, and like always there were a good couple or three points that we left out there.
But the rain kept off and the course was immaculate.
£34.00 each for coffee/bacon rolls, 18 holes with munchies at the 9th, and a lovely carvery lunch. Cushty.
Just warming up for Woodhall....

Glad you enjoyed it and played well. You must have driven well - it's the only course I've played where driver is the go-to shot off every tee except the par 3s, and if the wind is against even one of them is a driver ! Having said that, I watched an open there once and they were taking irons for position on the first from the back tees. show offs...

A few friends and I went down to Seaford for our annual Dormy trip earlier this year. Before end of march it's the bargain of the century. Needed the recent rain tho.

I think the course was looking the very best I have ever seen it. Greens were superb, not too quick but lovely condition and the fairways were immaculate.
Will go in for it again next year. Some top totty in the bar too....not that I noticed.
