I played today for the 2nd time since February and absolutely wrecked my feet in a new pair of foot joys.

Definately need to walk these in before the next game.

Absolutey skelping!

Also played last night with Liverbirdie. Played rubbish, scored about 34 points though, and lost to a man who only finished half the holes. Stupid game matchplay. Stableford is the way ahead.:thup:

We were let through by a fourball on the par 3 ninth. Usually means an instant shank, but we both pitched our tee shots a few feet from the hole. Peter lipped out and I holed out for a two. Think the fourball thought we were proper players.oo:

Was Rammel, five pars and I should be playing off about 14/15, X number of double and triples means I should be playing off about 40. Another night of sulking. Am all for leaving me putts in a dustbin lid area from 10 ft to 100 ft, but why are they always short side of the flippin hole. Er hit um harder could be one reason.

Flaming typical, I can't get cut for love nor money in a medal just now but played for the county today against Hampshire and it was sublime. Only dropped 1 shot in 17 holes and won 2&1. Team won 6-4 overall and Mikejohnchapman was also playing and he recorded a good win too.

Well done to the old boys.:thup:

Ouch, hope they're broke in before for your game at Bellshill on the 17th.
Virtuocity will be joining us.
If you would like to bring someone along to make up the 4 ball that would be great.
Cost is £5 a head, we'll play off bare/sore skint feet.:rofl:

Hopefully my spikeless shoes will be on if it’s not wet.

Also hoping a few miles tonight has broken these new ones in.

A-Team tonight against Maxstoke, I had 8 shots.

2 weeks since my lesson and had been hitting buffer and putting in the practice, and tonight it all came together...

5 over gross on the front 9 and that was with 1 silly double on the 9th, still 5 over gross walking off the 13th, back to back doubles on 14 & 15, 2 very tough holes (si1 & si5) where I was looking to close it out being 5 up on the 12th, but I was greedy and it cost me, but a bogey for the half on the 16th saw the match out for a 3&2 win and my best round at Coventry, although I never played the last 2 holes, I've never had 9 pars on my course (or any course I don't think) in a single round before, never mind in only 16 holes

Playing B-Team tomorrow then playing with some visitors from a Zoo on Thursday I'm feeling rather chuffed tonight

Holed a 52 wedge from 109 tonight, straight in the hole for an eagle, sadly the rest of my golf stunk the place out.

4BBB open comp this afternoon. We started well but didn't dovetail very well and finished with 40 points.

Played with a mate from my old place and his brother and his mate. (so that's a four ball). My mate (off 5.6) wasn't driving very well, apparently, he told us all, has been struggling with driver for a while. On 16th, he hooked his tee shot yet again, he usually has a lovely draw shot, and casually threw his driver into the trees, saying "does anyone want to buy a driver". His brother said, "you don't want to do that you could get £100 for that on e bay". "Not anymore I said" as it hit a tree with that "plink" sound. Yup, snapped clean in half.
They still beat us, due to his partner, a 19 H/C, who only hit two bad shots all round. 19 my.........

Got out for 9 yesterday.

Finishes -1 which is first time I've ever been under par after 9. Chipping was poor, putting decent but nothing spectacular, but long game was on fire.

Finger crossed I can keep it going

Club League Match today and me and my PP won 8&7.

We shook hands on 11th and I was one under gross on my own ball. I don't think I have never scored so well ever before. I'll probably not be able to hit a cow's backside on Friday but until then I can bask in glory.

OK so there's no 'I' in team... but, come on, what the heck! :thup:

 

[Imurg]

Respectable 32 points - 15 out, 17 back
Speed of the greens seemed a bit variable today, none of us could quite get the pace right.
One very annoying blob on our 16th...BIG dogleg right, wind quite hard from the right - straightened out Fragger's slice - tried to go over the trees
Loads of height and carry but the wind didn't touch it and I finished in the forest....
Off to Fish's gaff ( see what I did there) tomorrow, using the voucher I acquired at H4H last year.
Looking forward to it.

Solid practice session tonight. Wanted to get on the course but it was rammed. Shame as I was hitting it well and wanted to test it as I'm not playing a club match on Saturday away to Tylney Park. Definitely need the driver working around there

 

[Lump]

Stableford tonight. 44 pts. (Gross 67. -4) New all time low round for me.
Found a nice couple of swing thoughts that just WORK!

Some shooting there pal.

I will listen if you want to share those swing thoughts. Lol

Another round this evening around the local 9-hole
Rather steady if unspectacular golf with mediocre putting
2 GIRs = par; 5 'just off' and chips + 2 putts = bogey; 2 howler par 3 tee-shots then scrambled to bogey = +7 over gross
Thats actually not bad for me (and the scoring seems better than the golf)
Probably key was 1) no lost balls; 2) no OOB; 3) only 2 howlers. Must work to limit these

PS Played the last 3 holes with another single-player (an Italian lady) as she caught up at one of the par 3's - Told the lass when I got home and she's threatening not to allow me back! - Is that a common hazard !

B-Team yesterday away at Olton which I always enjoy playing.

After a great round for the A-Team the day before I was upbeat.

Started off with 3 solid pars, then the heavens opened with a vicious downpour, with no waterproofs, brolly, no extra tops as I took everything out of my bag the other day to freshen it all up and with no forecast of rain, I got absolutely soaked.

Just lost concentration from that point, drives were poor, putts were non committal, felt tired and laboured and I was just going through the motions, I think the right expression is that I was ‘streaky’ at best, went on to loose 4&2.

Great company, excellent food, shame about the golf.

Hosting 3 escapees from the zoo this morning, going to need a gallon of Red Bull I think 😜
