Disappointing day. Had 33 points off the yellows but was flying after the first five and level par gross. Made a mess of the 7th and then seemed to lose the plot especially timing wise. Putted really well bar a stupid 3 putt but all in all have to be reasonably happy. A 7/10 sort of day

Played, instead of the 10th, lost 2 balls of the 12th tee with big tops into the rough. Also lost a ball on 5th into the ditch right, blobby blobby blobby:mad::LOL: chipping great again, greens pretty nippy, no rain, dry. 34 points with the 2 blobs.

Flipping game will I ever crack it and become consistent.

Winter League 4BBB, our third match and we were solid on the front 9 (my partner in particular!) and were 5 up after 11. We halved the 12th but then we both doubled the 13th to lose the hole and lost the next two to pars to be 2 up with 3 to play and a little down in confidence but par was enough for the win on the 16th and a 3&2 win.
That puts us 3 wins from 3 with two matches lost to rain. I was playing Petron Impala Mk III 1, 3 and 5 woods (these won't be getting another outing for a while, if at all, I was rubbish off the tee!), Ben Sayers "Ray Floyd" Power Ridged irons 3 to SW and a Spalding Synchro-Line putter.
(And I had a 2 on the 10th :) )

Your a naughty Mr Crow, you didn't really play with metal woods. Surely you are pulling our leg, next you will be getting fitting for the m5 woods;):LOL::p:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

I have to own up, :oops::giggle: when the course is wet through or it's chucking it down then I take either metal or plastic woods out as I don't want to risk ruining the wooden woods. (In my defence though, some of them have heads smaller than persimmons)

Out in the rain for 7 holes, decided to go to the range and have 50 balls.
Have to carry a mat around at the moment, in the rain it’s a complete phaff.. find myself playing to be off the fairway so I don’t use it! I figured going to the range was better as I did not have to keep pickup the mat.

Might try tomorrow if it's open but I have my doubts...

Serious question but given the issues with drainage let alone the off course issues, is it worth looking elsewhere. I get your issues with playing times, travel time to the course etc but not sure you're getting value for money

Played a couple of times this weekend. Had a good knock in a Canadian 4somes (both tee off and play your own ball for your second shot, then pick the best ball and 4somes in from the 3rd shot), and then played a Maxi-tours event at Wilmslow yesterday. never played there before and enjoyed the course. Got lucky with the weather although some of the greens were very wet in parts.........great par 3's. Course was playing long and I was only 6 over, but the last few holes i really started to fat my irons. Missed greens with 2 x 9 irons and a PW. Need to hit the range this week !

played the eclectic around the kings, winter league was out as one hole was closed for fairway slitting..

seemed a bit pointless TBH just going for Birdies or eagle on every hole (already have a par on every hole and 6 birdies so far) and picking up if you couldn't get the desired Bird or Eagle.

did manage 3 more birdies. Not sure i will bother again if its just for ecy, reminded my why i don't bother with this format at Nairn
