I am not off 12 (11.5) after the weekend.

Apparently, my shockingly bad net 74 on Sunday was buffered, so no 0.1, and I was also off 11.3, and not 11.4 as previously thought. (I must have buffered in the last one too).

However, there are two medals yet to go this year, so I could still make it to 12 before the winter.

Or two more chances to get to 10. depends how you look at it.

Happy days.

Couldn't you get somebody else to use your cards????

I'd be delighted with a net 74 at the moment, what admirably high standards you have.

And yet barely a word.....

You aren't a 12 handicapper and think 10 is still in your comfort zone on the evidence I saw. Still with winter coming and less roll etc I guess ost of us can look forward to a few 0.1's coming back

Everyone has to set goals, and 74 wasn't one of them.

It was more the way I achieved the score really. The front 9 is definately the harder 9, and when I was 3 over after 8, with a 120 yard par 3 to go, I thought it was on. Nope. a 5 on the 9th was the start of the rot.

Played 'safe' on 12 for another double.

Strong finish of bogey, bogey, double, bogey, is always going to leave a sour taste.

Oh and I only posted this in case someone was checking up on howdidido.com and busted me. Having posted on another thread that I had gone up. Can't be too careful.

So would I. I pLayed in my first ever comp as a single at the weekend - club championship and carded a mare of a round at 108! I did seem to have an inordinate amount of bad luck at times, my partner was astounded when I hit three consecutive shots back off of different trees on the same hole....... After the round I counted at least 25 "wasted" shots on the card. Disappominted, dejected and in despair, I know my game is a lot better than that, but it's in the toilet right now and fast disappearing round the U-bend........ bring me that 74 on a plate.....

If I could gift you my 74, it would make me much happier.
