Managed 35 points today but chipped in for four points on the 7th and scrambled really well. Not happy with the swing but as I had a lesson on Thursday I know it'll take a few rounds to feel natural. If I can score that well not swinging well you have to be happy

Played the clubs scratch comp yesterday for handicap 11 and below and played very well for 13 holes before the wheels came off.

Was 3 over par gross and started to think about the possible cut I’d get and it was just down hill once those thoughts came in as I tried to “protect” my score instead of just keep going.

7 over on the last 5, so walking off the 18th I was well disappointed. Net 70 gave me a .2 cut though as CSS was 71, but still comp handicap of 10 as the cut took me to 9.6.

Gonna hand a supplementary card in today and cross my fingers I can put a whole round together with some decent golf.

Out yesterday playing in a stiff wind , lost a couple of balls, happy with my game but didn't think I'd scored particularly well, finally got a cut back down to 16.

Well done to those who've done well, and commiserations to those who had mares - at least you're out there playing

Hope your recovery is not to long and your out playing again soon, our comp. was cancelled due to adverse weather and haven't played a comp. for 2 weeks.

Might try to give it a go on Wednesday.but not sure I'd try 18. But otherwise, it will be at least another week & a half before I'd get chance.

Parkstone invitation day yesterday. We didn't play well in the morning foursomes but had a good afternoon round in the betterball. 7 birdies and only 1 dropped shot jumped us right up the field to 3rd overall.

Two blow up holes did for me in the qualifier today.
The 6th I had a simple SW to the front of the green, pulled it into the bunker, bounced off the bottom of the sandless bunker over the green, two duffed chips and three putts for a five over 9.
The 10, tee shot into bunker and up the face, hit the face and bounced back, another bounce off the bottom of the bunker and up the face, hit the face again and bounced back, out on the fourth attempt plus two putts for a QB 7.
Missed the buffer, surprisingly.

September medal, 74.

Another frustrating round, starting to get miffed with this repetition, 4 excellent holes, 6 good holes, 5 steady holes, 3 shockers, just can’t pull it all together, I’ve turned at times only 2 or 4 over gross then find myself scrambling and then imploding, just seem to lose focus at certain points, no specific holes as I can do this starting off on the 1st or the 10th, I can birdie and par a good run of holes all in regulation then look like I’ve never swung a club before, no pattern so difficult to identify, but it’s pishing me off 😡😟

Club match at home to Caversham Heath. Already 5-1 down from the first leg. Out second with the VC and neither of us played great but somehow managed to hold in. One down on the 17th I had a 5 foot left to right to win the hole and square the game which did a lap of honour and stayed up. I then hit the last (par 5) in regulation and had a 20 foot birdie putt. One of the opposition had a 35 footer from the front of the green to a flag two thirds of the way back. He rolled it in at breakneck speed hitting the flag flush and dropping straight in for a birdie to lose 2 down. Match tied at 3-3 so for the first time since 2013 Caversham get the cup

More concerned that the minor changes from my lesson last Wednesday not really feeding into the game. Even my 35 points on Saturday was more as a result of a strong short game. Much to do before next week and H4H

Supplementary card handed in yesterday, and just about managed to sneak in another cut despite almost losing it all again on the last 5 holes, so for the first time in my life my competition handicap is now 9, as I got down to 9.4. Only one card away from being thrown out of the "single handicap club", but I'll take it.

Gross 76 at Minchinhampton Cherington yesterday in an AM-AM - only 5 over so really pleased to shoot that off their white tees (current handicap 9)

Spent the weekend down in West Bay with my friend and what a weekend it was!

Played Bridport & West Dorset on Saturday and really enjoyed it, such a beautiful part of the world. Didn't play as well as I wanted to only scoring 26 points, conditions were perfect though, glorious sunshine and barely a touch of wind.

Yesterday we went to Came Down Golf Club and again, thoroughly enjoyed it. Tee'd off at 9am and there was hardly another soul on the course! Played much better, shooting a solid 82 (+13) & getting 37 points.

A perfect weekend

Took a few hours off work yesterday, to get my 3rd comp card done for the year and entered the stableford comp. Probably the last round before H4H. Over the last few weeks, my golf has been all over the place.

The trend continued, visited the trees and rough for first 3 holes, but scrambled well , then found a swing thought that kind of worked.

Scored 40 points, winner winner chicken dinner, won the stableford, a rare card without a double bogey on it, one birdie and for the first time I have got an 'official' handicap starting with an 8, got cut from 9.5 to 8.9.
