First competition under WHS today, won it (surprisingly) with 37 points. Nice to win but bit of a sour taste as 1 over through 15 and bogied the last 3 for a 74 ?

Surprisingly the course we were playing today was open, with no temporary greens and only a handful of winter tees.
It was cold with a heavy drizzle on the front 9. Played pretty well for a gross 43 considering it was my first round since lockdown and I had new irons.
Then the rain stopped and some blue sky appeared. And my golf disappeared. Started the back 9 with a Quadruple bogie 8 which was caused by 2 poor decisions compounding an error with an error. Also had a triple and finished the round off with a double.
I was rather annoyed with my 93 as I should have easily broken 90.

33 points for 15 holes which the "fiddle" are playing now so everyone gets finished before it's dark. 4 birdies and 4 bogies , still very mucky with pull trollies or carry

And smashed it. I went round in 82 which is my lowest ever score and a massive 10 pars. I think me best before was a an 84 with 7 or 8 pars. 22 points front 9 and 21 on the back nine. That was with 3 one pointers in the score as well.
Played on Tuesday and my driving was everywhere. Today all bar one drive was straight down the middle with distance.
for one day only I am the man With £9.50 in the bank.

Turned up to play for the first time for weeks only to find that all my PPs decided to cancel due to the rain.
The weather was foul so not too disappointed.
A bit of a heads up would have been nice though!

a lovely morning to be on the course
Felt like I didn’t drive the ball well but managed to get round in 1 under.

A nice day weatherwise, golf was a bit up and down, a nice birdie of par 5 for 4 points, but 2 blobs on successive holes messed up my card

Played a maxi tours event at Vale Royal Abbey in Cheshire yesterday. For those familiar with Cheshire courses its close to two of the very best in the county, Delemere and Sandiway.
I was really impressed. Given the weather it had drained superbly and the course was on full tees and greens and no mats. Its a youngish course but is only going to get better. Played OK but nowhere near the prizes.

Very impressive. Given the rain on Tuesday I expected it to be cancelled, but the course is apparently famed for its drainage and I can see why. Sandiway next door had pictures of flooded greens on twitter that morning.
Tims good, usually he has an event every week but has obviously struggled a bit with lockdown. He's back up and running now. Its a superb set up and his competitions have a good following. A few of my mates work shifts and play Maxi tours every week but I just fill in a few times a year when required. I've done his Portugal trip the last two years and thats been great. There's talk of it being moved to end March next year but who knows.
Do you play in them regularly?

I was hoping to play in that as a reserve when he was one short but someone beat me to it. It seems a good set up but hard to get into as there are loads of regular established teams.
I did play in the one at Stockport a couple of months ago.

Yes we do play them regularly.
It’s very good value for some of the courses he chooses.
Havnt played this year for obvious reasons.
But hopefully next year we will be back to normal.

Its a great business model he has going. He has the events at great courses for around £25 pp. Always gets a full field too.
Like Louise says, the only issue is getting on them as he has a lot of regulars. The 4 guys from Lymm play every week so they get a slot. I just fill in when one can't play.

Even harder when you are on your own, hoping for a drop out.
played the Kings on Thursday afternoon, course condition had improved and the greens had been tined again which has prob got rid of the excessive pitch marks. hit the ball well again esp off the tee, the down side was we were held up by a single guy on his own, whoc was oblivious to thos behind him, didn't ring the bell on the 1st or 18th after he'd played ahd had lost at least 3 hole on the game in front, as it was a 4 ball held up by a single
had a game at Nairn this morning, nice weather and hit the ball well, but couldn't hole a thing, biggest dis was 7th hit a great drive and had 7 iron in to 4 feet for an eagle that didn't even get close
