Played Wellingborough Golf Club for the first time in years this eve. Played well apart from a couple of brain farts round the turn on 9&10. Nice track. Irons were really good, but missed about 9 putts in the 8’-15’ Range so could’ve been better. Happy with how it went overall though.
Playing tomorrow and then have our singles 1/4 final Tuesday eve

Another good round, but another what could have been....79 including a triple and two doubles, and a missed birdie putt from 1ft that I rushed as we were out of position.

Still need to tighten up the short game, I especially need to take more of the birdie chances I get, if i’m to get my handicap lower - another chance tomorrow.

Entered the monthly medal today. Was playing the front nine fantastically (which is rare), after 8 holes I was only 5 over par. Then we had to wait an age for a four ball we'd caught up, I promptly had a mare and registered a quad bogey 8 on the 9th. Oh well, moving on... we got ahead of the group anyway as they stopped for a half way break briefly.

I went back to playing well on the back nine with a couple of pars, a birdie at the 13th thanks to a very long putt, but the second disaster of the day came at the 16th, horrible topped drive into a ditch. Made a 7 this time. Tidy bogeys on the last two holes meant I finished on 84, net 65 so three under handicap. Finally going to be cut to 18 (no false alarm this time surely!), and got half a chance of winning division 2 for the second monthly medal in a row. So that'd be three prizes I'm owed!

Played in a team open at Childwall yesterday, its not my favourite course I find it mostly very flat and unremarkable, but I was persuaded to play and a par on the par 4 first boded well, but for the rest of the first 9 I could not hit the ball, I was terrible. Following cake at the halfway stop, I parred the par 5 10th, thanks to a couple of very good mishits that ran for miles then the terrible play continued, my game briefly returned with 3 pars near the end of the round but all in all one of my worst rounds of the year.

Took the win yesterday. Happy days.

Played some good stuff today off the back sticks. Did have a brain fart on the par 3 5th. Hit the ball doing a practice swing when putting from just off the green. Only blank of the day.
3 putted 3 times en route to a buffer of 34 points. Css went one harder as it usually does off the whites.

Practice round today, 7 under handicap although i did two mulligans, so not really 7 (why don't i play this well in comps!). Hit some fantastic mid to long irons but my driver play left alot to be desired! hopefully better story on monday in a friendly match!

Highlight of the round, drove it into the long stuff, and then proceded to stick the approach from 120 to about 5ft, making a birdie on one of the harder holes on the course, lowlight... most likely going bunker to bunker on the last infront of the clubhouse

Hit everything well today apart from driver, only hit 1 fairway all day, but scrambled round for an 83 off the whites.

Nipped out for 9 holes with HiD at 4 pm , not expecting any great shakes as we'd hollow cored on Monday but both playing well so decided to do 18 and around in 2 hours 35 mins
She's only gone and had her best score ever 86 for a nett 63 .

A miserable roll up game today. Typically hit it well warming up but all that work on pitching and chipping has evaporated and over thinking it all the time. Frustrated

Absolutely buzzing. Qualified last week in the CC for the last 16 best gross for scratch matchplay this weekend. Somehow managed to win both matches today so playing semifinal tomorrow morning against the guy who has won it 3 times. He’s a 4-handicapper, but I feel that I’m still in with a chance the way I’m playing at the moment. Early night tonight!

First round club champs today - 5 over and 4 on par 3’s 😡

5 back from leader so all to play for

Playedmm today and got net 61 in a 4bbb, got pipped on the back 9 countback and then got destroyed by a net 57.

Placed third in the end and won nearest pin and 2 x 2’s so a bit of a shop credit in the kitty.

Had a lesson yesterday evening where I was hoping to solve my blocks with the irons.

Found out I am swinging a lot from the inside. My pro said the fix he would do is not advisable in the middle of the season so put a plaster on it which isn’t ideal.

Well maybe it is, shot 8 over today and 37 points for my best 18 in a good long time. Css is normally 35 so should be a .4 cut at least. Hit the ball great apart from two poor tee shots on 10 and 17 resulting in two doubles. Also had a 2 which was good as haven’t had one in a while.

It was also the club handicap championships so there is another round tomorrow on our other course but css is normally 39 points on that so not sure I’ll play haha. Will see what today’s scores were like

Good luck buddy.

I noticed you’re down to 9.7.... did you put your scores in from Sunningdale or was that from the CC you mentioned ?

Keep shooting good practice round scores and the comp scores will follow.

That’s from CC. Haven’t got the cards from Sunningdale yet. I’ll chase Glyn!

Played decent today. Hit two bad shots which cost me two double bogeys.

But apart from that I had 2 2’s and halved with against the course on the bogey comp. so not too bad.
