Dragged myself down to the club, last Sunday before Christmas Day. Only 9 holes open, oh no the nutters will go round twice, very hilly front nine. I didn't fancy it so told everyone and just put in for Captains Ball thing. Half way up the 3rd, big hill, battery gave out, I'd not charged it up. OMG I got round but I'm shattered. Managed 19 points, lost my ball on the 1st after smashing the ball with my new 3 wood just right of the green, or so I thought. Gone. I'm glad I went. My excersise has been done. Feet up now before walking to sons for dinner.

Another +4, this one was much steadier, no birdies as I couldn’t get the ball to the hole with the flat stick, this also cost me two 3putt bogies, (one was really a poor club choice that left me miles short), the other two were after a chip out post drilling a tree I thought I’d miss, and then a topped 3w out of nowhere - aside from that I was in control the whole way round.

Out again tomorrow, let’s see if it lasts.

Xmas Swindle today 4 birdies and 2 bogeys for 37 points , beaten into 6th on C/B

Weather was remarkably mild and course has held up very well with the recent storms

Miserable day here today - we had 11 holes open plus the 9 hole course but I wasn't feeling it after a late night at a Freemasons Lodge Christmas party. Our place shuts on Christmas day and Boxing day, so the lad has booked us a tee time at Huddersfield for the 26th - I'll need the exercise judging by the amount of grub we're doing for the crimbo dinner.

Very cold day today, breezy East wind but knobbed it round in 75 (+8) no doubles on the card but no birdies either.

Greens very slow didn’t help.

Got out this morning with a mate as I'm off work now til Jan. Quite mild weather, not too cold at all.

Front nine fairly steady until a poor chip on the 7th brought me a double - and a poor three-putt on the 8th brought a bogey when I should've parred. Six over front nine for 16 points.

Kicked into gear on the back nine - three straight pars, then a bogey followed by a birdie and two more pars meant I was still on for a level par back nine - until I somehow went out of bounds with 3 wood on the 17th. So a double there and parred the last for 21 points on the back.

Final gross score of 76, which is actually my new best score on my home course! And achieved in the depth of winter with only 11 clubs in the bag. Crazy.

When I checked my stats I saw it said I'd hit 91% of fairways, so the only one I missed all day was that 17th when I went out of bounds. Without that one bad shot it's a 74 with every fairway hit! Still, can't complain. Won the match 5 & 3 as well, mate had a bit of mare but would always have struggled to compete with my back nine I think.
