After my post about scoring 39 points off 21 yesterday, I got to the club as the results were being published. I had been dropped to 19.4 so lost 2 shots and had finished 2nd in the completion.

Had a decent front 9 with 17 points. I then finished the back with 21 points after birdieing the par 5 18th. It was a tap in birdie after almost holing out from around 40 yards which was the first time I’ve ever birdied the 18th!

Looking at another little cut and hopefully finish 2nd or 3rd (can’t see 38 points winning it) and get some more cash in my account 😀

Nice work 👍

As stated elsewhere, another round of playing well only to miss out on a good score through awful putting, at least I was in my buffer though.
I played with our lady captain who had an amazing nett 64 (SSS 72), she played very nicely and unlike me she hardly missed inside 10 feet.

Highly enjoyable afternoon at Broadstone with Liverbirdie, therod and paperboy. Excellent company and some good golf :thup:

79 today resulting in a 0.6 cut down to a lowest for me 9.9 ☺
Really wasn't expecting it as golf has been low on priorities for a few weeks and I mainly stuck my name down to make sure I played.

Second cut on consecutive Sundays.

12.4 down to 12.0 last week

12.0 down to 11.6 this week

👍👍

Cheers Gordon. The course was in great nick, a top place to play golf.

Had an absolutely abysmal hangover yesterday, still decided to turn up and enter the August medal for some reason. Couldn't hit a tee shot all day, everything else was surprisingly ok but it was a losing battle - lost two balls off tees, and topped another couple of drives as well, so that was where all my shots were lost. Ended up with 95 for a net 75. I managed to escape without a 0.1 though, presumably because only six people actually played on the Sunday so CSS went up to 71.

The greens were absolutely appalling as well. Don't know what they've done, but there were patches where the green has just died completely, and the bits that had grass seemed like they hadn't cut it so it was bit too long. So with patches of fluffy grass or no grass it was a nightmare trying to judge putts. Needs sorting before the club's Open in two weekends' time.

Played twice over the weekend.
Both occasions had 12 points on the front and 21 points on the back!

12 points on Saturday was just purely not that focused, it was just a roll up.
12 points on Sunday wasn't helped by 3 lost balls and a 4 putt!

Away match Friday for the club with handicaps, won 5&4

Away match Saturday for the club, off scratch, got hammered 7&6 by two ninjas. A pleasure to watch, if you weren't on the receiving end!

Presidents Day yesterday, won Div 1 with 41 points. A gross 4 over 76 with 2 doubles on the card, both of which were utter, utter filth. If anyone saw me play those two holes and you told them I did the rest of the course in level they'd have slapped you in the face and sent you for observation.

Cut to 8.6, joint lowest ever. Next comp is Wednesday and I'm hoping to get cut again and be off 8 for the first time as per season goal #1 before going to Scotland to play Carnoustie and the Old Course

When this game is good is unbelievably good. I know as well as anyone when it's beating you up it's torture, so I'll happily ride the wave where it takes me.

Played whilst on holidays and due to being selective with timings, had millionaires golf each time, very enjoyable:-

Ganton – What a course, loved it from the warm welcome from the pro shop, played on county card for £55, clubhouse, to the two members coming to talk to us, also was given the option of what tees we played from, to the brilliant course. Played to handicap. Want to play the course again for sure.

Bamburgh Castle – Played in 25-30mph winds, This is one hell of a fun course for £20, didn’t stop laughing all the way round, the clubhouse welcome was great, and the first tee shot sets the scene for the rest of the course. I think it has the best scenery on any coastal golf course I have played. Scoring wise had good and bad but blobbed the 16[SUP]th[/SUP] going for the green, just run out of steam after the full on day the day before/morning.

North Berwick – Condition of the course was spot on, sadly thecourse I was really disappointed with it, as thought I was going to love it,quite a few holes on top of each other, quite a lot of gimmicky holes, just didn’t do it for me. Loved the 9[SUP]th[/SUP](par 5). Played well here and shot to handicap and didn’t have the balls to take a driver to the 18[SUP]th[/SUP] given all the cars.:rofl:

Seahouses – For £50 for a 4 ball voucher iirc. Some goodholes, pleasant enough. Played terrible, the fastest greens of the week

Dunstanburgh Castle – A real surprise for £20, some really cracking holes and played after the club champs, some pins were mad. Probably hit the ball the best here but finished on 12 over with 4 doubles(doh)

Gutted not to have made Silloth on the way back, due to heavy rain forecast, next time.

Played Hebdon bridge today nice enough 9 holer with different tees to play the 18. Some cracking views up there. Scored 36 (off the society 12 hc) should’ve been much better

Garbage today, good week coming up though with 4 games in 4 days :thup:

I am glad to see I am not the only one. I have to do loads of typing as part of being on the committee and I reckon to type completion instead of competition at least once in every document.

LAdys team open at Worsley today, my good form continued and for a change my putting wasn't too bad although I still managed 3 three putts, Gross81 was probably my lowest round of the year

Goin for a"procedure" on my thumb tomorrow, just hope I wont have to rest it for too long

I know that area pretty well and never knew there was a golf course there.

Yeah Lou, it’s way above the town. We’re staying in luddenden (spelling) it’s less than 10 mins away. Very quiet, honesty box for the green fee. Some postage stamp type greens, and as I said some cracking views 👍🏻

Halifax for us tomoz

Had a nightmare today couldn't hit an iron all round the amount I sliced was a joke and anything I did hit was fat or thin, driving was poor too, picked up a little on the back 9 but damage was already done only positive was my chipping was consistent and never hit a 3 putt

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Played last night. Straight out the car, quick swish and off. Not a great night. Course was rammed so rushed to get out on the slightly quieter back nine but tempo was shot and swing was a mess. Short game was sharp which was a pleasant surprise but didn't feel like I got anythong from my nine holes and to a degree didn't enjoy it

 

[ademac]

Played tonight for the first time after my recent lesson. Very happy with how I was striking the ball, not a duff shot in sight which has been rare of late!
Disappointed with 34 putts but the greens had been "sanded" and were a bit of a lottery really so I wont be too harsh on myself.
