My 1st Medal of the year today - a solid .1 to go up to 8.5 and back to playing off 9.
With a bloody 10 on the card!!!

Our 13th, par 5, isn't really tricky. 500 yards of straight grass with rough down one side and a copse of trees just off the fairway at 250. 3 ordinary shots should see me on the green but, No, I have to smother one left into waist high clag that shouldn't see a golf ball ever, then hit another to the fairway. Thinking I've got to go for it to keep the score going - I was only 5 over gross to there - I went for it and hooked it OB left and nothing really worked from there in...

Had a nice 60 foot birdie putt on 6 though and at least I still beat Fragger - he had an 11!! - and a 285 yard drive on the last. Nett 75 ain't gonna trouble the scorers.. :( :( :(
 
Yep I played like a wombat, and thank you for crediting me with that 285 yard drive on the last, however oh limp wristed one, that was yours and not mine.

Proof read thy posts in future,

You think its bad going back up to 9, well im back to 23

Bugger

Fragger :(
 
Don't worry guys it's just May blues, it's a temporary blight you'll be back stronger for it. Fragger you'll finish the season under 20 and Imurg I feel Cat One beckoning. Believe boys, your rivalry will take you there!!!
 
Fear not. I hit some balls on the practice ground and it was abjectly poor right until the very last 2 ball and then it clicked and both went perfectly and landed within 5 foot of each other and within 10 yards of the flag (160 yards away using 5 iron). Picked them all up including an old one left out there. Hit that as a closer and it was the best one of the night. Me thinks the golfing gods were yanking my chain
 
You're not alone I shot an 11 on our par 5 8th today! Penalty drop and 4 shots out of a bunker!! I'm normally out first time but today it was not to be!!
