Well today was a heck of a day

Wife decided to sign up and do the 72 hole challenge for Macmillan Cancer - I was politely informed that I would be joining her ???

First round started at 6:30 , finished the last round at 19:00 - it was tough , mentally towards the end as the energy was drained , but chuffed to finish

At LB?

Played 18 at Buckingham tonight, +9 on the front and +3 on the back.

The good form continues......

Do you bother keeping score for that or just hack your way round quick as possible?

Midweek stableford for me tonight. A very odd round, was either picking up pars for net 3 points or blobbing holes. Ended up with 28 points.

Thought I'd gotten the driver back under control after the first few holes but it had given up on me by the 6th and it cost me for the remainder.

Course was in great condition though, as good as I've seen the greens.

Midweek stableford last night at Silloth GC ️ Finished mid table, best round and score to date (even with 2 zero pointers on the card) so happy with that ? Beautiful night for a knock, very little wind and the sun was shining.

On the Par 4 4th tee, blind shot towards the mill.

Fair play for the third round being your best, I'd have imagined they just get progressively worse each time.

Great scores @Liverpoolphil - fair play on 4 in a day!

I know a few who have done it as a scramble before - must have been a long day!

Hacker ?

Christ, you really can't say anything on here without someone wilfully grabbing the wrong end of the stick can you? Obviously I just meant it as in having a quick swipe at the ball to get round quicker.

Hahahahhaha, tbf I read it in the spirit it was intended ? Just tickled me that LP would be thinking “hacker?!?! ME?!?!”

No, you don’t get away with much around here ?

I'd love to do a 4 in a day thing like that but the amount of money spent on medical bills would be considerably more than I would raise....

 

[Bdill93]

Absolutely fell apart last night.

A bogey would have been amazing on some holes

3 shanks.. 3! 2 OB....

Just keep reminding myself that I love golf...

37 points in the Seniors stableford comp. Scored on every hole, so happy with the consistency.

Out for a casual eighteen after work, driving is still pretty suspect and hardly got a putt to drop, amount of tiny tap ins was unreal, 83 blows which is one worse than last night when I holed a good few decent putts - I'd say every bit of my game except putting was better tonight.

Worked out though that I've not been following through completely and when I made a point of concentrating on that I was hitting everything but the driver much better, nice baby draw on the majority of shots - may have to go out again tomorrow night to confirm that I can do it from the start of a round.

Absolutely lovely out there tonight.

Played the first round of our club knockout this evening, weather forecast was a bit iffy but it turned out to be a lovely evening in the sun.

Playing a guy off 11 so not too far apart in handicap, but I started like a rocket and was 6 up after 7 holes. I was playing really well and got to the turn in 4 over gross to still be 6 up. I then had a few dodgy holes and was 2 up on the 17th tee, won this hole so 3&1 overall which I am delighted with.

Overall I played really well, didn’t get into any danger apart from putting one on the ditch which sits in front of our 9th green. Ended up on 77 gross which is my best score at the course and my lowest since returning back to playing regularly.

Heading home very happy!

Knocked out of the seniors singles knockout today … lost 3&1. Had a putting lesson yesterday and putted well today … pity that the other elements of my game failed to show up. OK first half and so all square at the break … then a poor second nine. Oh well, my pp and I are still in the doubles.

Played Penrith GC ️ tonight.. a game of 2 halves.. dreadful front 9, marvellous back 9 but struggled off the tee with the driver all night ? Beautiful night for it though ?

perhaps strengthen your grip ?

That is some score, and I bet you were very popular.
