BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEF.

Smashed it proper smashed it. Tashyboy is on the pop now. There's gonna be some Rammel on here tonight.

After 8 holes I am 6 under. Where the bloody hell did that come from. I double bogeyed the 9th whilst being on the green in two 15 ft from pin. Walked off after 9 with 23 points at 5 under. I parred the 10th and was 10 under. Not gonna bore you with the next 7 holes but it was good bad and ugly with some battling golf. Stood on the 18th and hit the worst drive this month. Captains charity swear box is overflowing. Battled for a point on the last and came off with 40 points.

BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEF.

Gotta say that am buzzing with the score, I shot 40 for the front nine and was inches from scoring my first ever sub 40 for nine holes, 40 is my lowest ever score for the front nine. Thinking about today's round I left a good few out there as well. I went round in 86 and I am thinking for the first time ever I have a sub 80 round in me. It's there. I can smell it.

Last off, played with a 70 yr old fossil for the first time today. He loved it he told us so, he liked the crack we had. He went round in 38 points and was buzzing.

That aside.

BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEF

Went down the course for a practise on the back nine. Wanted to practise my 4 wood mainly, off the tee and the deck, because I don't get a lot of use out of it normally so don't get to practise it as much as the other clubs. Left the driver at home so I'd have to use it. I hit it nicely off the tee for the most part, and off the deck was alright but needs a little work.

I hit my hybrid and irons really well, and most shocking of all after my horror show of putting last weekend, this time I putted extremely well! Should expect that on a meaningless practise though I guess, typical. Anyway, 3 pars 5 bogeys 1 double, and 19 points off the still-new 16 handicap, so all in all a good night's work.

Playing in some lovely weather, I managed 34 pts having blobbed the last two holes!!
Great drive down 17th, par 4, leaving 76yds ..................... four chips and two putts for a seven!
Great drive down 18th, par 5, leaving over 200yds. Hit a wedge to leave me 80yds in ........................ four chips and two putts for an eight!
The chipping yips are back with a vengeance and in trumps.
I know it's all in the head, I just have zero confidence inside 100 yards.

I feel your wedge pain. I spent 30 mins chipping yesterday before the comp. Chipped really well when practicing but out on the course the chipping yips where out in full force.

our comp today was a non qualifier due to the course conditions, I started par, birdie and thought, typical when it doesn't count, however it didn't last long and I my game wasn't that great so in the end I was happy it was not a qualifier.

Er.........Nutter!
Good luck...you're gonna need it.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Did an hour of chipping and putting and then nipped onto the 10th to try it on the course. Couldn't hit the ball to save my life. No idea where any semblance of a swing went but making up and downs and scoring par or net par from everywhere. No chance of practicing or playing after work today given the forecast

Got to the club this morning nice and early.
Nobody around... competition day...
CVG arrives and there's still nobody around.
PSI screen isn't working so we can't enter the comp until someone comes....
After 10 minutes we decide to forget the comp and put in a Supplementary - we have a book in the changing rooms to sign in.
Out we go...
And I shoot 38 points to get myself a 0.2 cut.
PSI now working so we sign in and sign out...
Time will tell if I'd have won the comp but I still got a cut so I'm happy enough
Had to finish birdie, birdie to do it mind......

 

[Rlburnside]

Bit confused how can you enter a comp. after you finished playing and also after you put a supplementary in?

Well played btw.

They may allow it based on the fact he would have entered but the machine wasn't working? Dunno.

Didn't enter the comp but we still had to enter the supplementary on the system..

Round 3 under way. Trolly in the shop getting charged so carrying for this round.

Thanks for all the kind words of encouragement.

 

[garyinderry]

4 rounds complete and back home after a pint that didnt stand a chance.

Got soaked at the start for 5 holes. Showers through the day and drenched on the very last hole.
Great days golf in a 2 club wind.
Over 25 miles walked and over 1000 pounds raised for charity.

Feet up tomorrow.

Good effort and well done me man. Think you will have a few happy memories over the next few years 👍

Teeing off at first light in the rain. Guess who makes a balls of it.

My approach to the 4th in the rain. *warning blue language

Teeing off on round 4.


Wore some stripey blue and blue and black socks with white shoes, a slovenian football shirt under my rain jacket and a derry city hat. Stayed at my folks house last night and had to make last minute wardrobe changes this morning when I heard the rain. I do apologise to those easily offended. Haha I did change into more appropriate golf gear later in the day.

So the results from Thursday's comp are in and Tashyboy won with 40 points. The course is par 71 but was down as 70 for the day which seemed odd as it blew a hoolie most of the day. Anyway down to 17.4 which is the lowest ave ever been. Gutted for me PP. 70 yr old shot 38 points and was buzzing he would get a cut. But finished level..
Out of 16 players I was the only one that got a reduction. 😳
Happy days, off to City this afternoon, then to Majorca tonight, now where's me crocs and peedos.
