By God it's challenging - I've been fighting my addiction to them for maybe 5 yrs - before then I just lived with my addiction. There have been times where I've kicked them - but it's never felt right - always forced - so the change necessary has not been made - and I've relapsed.

This time I think I've nailed my addiction triggers, gentle sway and no hip turn whatsoever on backswing. And so it is solid right hand side - as if a scout pole is down my RHS - and my simple swing thought as I address the ball and prepare to begin the backswing is - Just Turn. Nothing else. Just Turn. And amazingly the club feels that it just goes to the right place - unforced and comfortable - no idea where it is - but for now - this being practice not perfection - it'll do.

But I must not become complacent. Because as soon as I forget what I must do, and in my complacency I just swing the golf club - then I will just Lucy Locket it. Every time. And that's a fact.

Medal today and another of what is becoming a typical round this year, gross 85, net 75 3 over handicap, which included 2 three putts, a topped 9 iron into a ditch which resulted in a triple bogey a fresh air shot and a double bogey on our increasingly frustrating par 3 18th.

One day....

Phew I'm safe for a while then, I don't need to continue to grow the Gringo tash the Mrs will be pleased 😂

The gringo Tash looks well on some people. 😬
Played today. It was one of those days. Lost two balls in two shots. After 9 holes and two blobs. I was sat on 17 points. Me driving was everywhere. Back nine 10 th hole lost another off the drive and sat and thought about lesson and I remembered one thing. 230 yds uphill me drive went. Scrambled a point. After that me driving was sublime. Last hole (par 5) am sat with 33 points on the tee. I smashed me drive 250-260. Where the **** did that come from. Suffice to say a lovely 3 wood and 9 iron to within 15 ft and Tashyboy drops his first ever birdie on the 18th. 4 for 4 Dance. Oh bless ya. But it was another day of what ifs. Bloody game.

Another 0.1 back in the midweek stableford with a whopping 26 points.

Now that’s 14 0.1s in a row. Yep 14 😱

Managed to get to 12 hcp. My highest for 15 years.

Oh how I love this wonderful game 🤣

Are you drinking heavily before each game or was it just last weekend?

Ouch..... That's got to hurt 14 in a row...
Not anymore. The 1st 7 hurt.

It’s now just a given 😉 you can’t make this many doubles and not get 0.1 back.

At least I have a cracking laugh whilst playing. That’s keeping me going 🤣

And my bunker raking skills are pure Cat 1 🤣

Golf is a stupid game, and when I say that, what I really mean is that Slime is a stupid golfer!
Played Puttenham today, my first round as a 15 handicapper, and scored 32 points.
Um, doesn't sound too bad ............................... but!
13pts in the first six holes, including a birdie.
4pts in the next six holes, that's two bogies, three trebles and a quad.
15pts in the last six holes, including a lovely birdie two!
Why do I constantly fall off a cliff in the middle of a round?
It can only be one thing, and that's concentration.
Hey ho, only 30 putts, which was nice.
