wasn't planning on playing yesterday as the weather forecast was horrendous, 40mph wind and lasting rain. decided to head down and have a coffee with the boys and see how bad it was in Nairn which 20 miles from my house. bright sunshine, no rain and little or no wind. temp even got up to 18deg and Slow Dave (who is cold all the time) was even down to shirt sleeves. we decided to just play individual for a change, played ok. but slow Dave took the money with a level par gross

Played in a better ball pairs comp and got 40 points to come third.

Winning pair got 47 points and one of the winners got an albatross on the par 5 18th!

Sunday morning roll up. 28 points but a long way from last. Didn't feel I played too badly and felt the bad shots were punished severely. Some good stuff especially with my wedge shots and not too disheartened. Keep working on the swing change I'm making and keep positive about where I'm going with my game

Played Saturday in a 4bbb and my partners shoulders must have been sore by the end. Only had 5 pars in 15 holes and 3 of them were on the last 3 holes when we had little chance of a score.

Decided to take up an invite for a bounce game early doors yesterday and tried to feel like the club face wasn't shutting and I was holding it through to the target longer......1 under gross for 13 holes, and it was the worst I could have scored. Stupid game

Could've kicked myself on Saturday. Was just a friendly knock at Rickmansworth, but I went from having 14 points after five holes, to only finishing on 32 points. Wheels just fell off by the 7th and I couldn't quite get them back on! A birdie and five pars altogether but five trebles as well(!). Farcical.

Bit late, but played on Friday afternoon in the Presentation Night's Shotgun. 12 holes (for anyone that know's Pleasington, we just didn't go over the railway). Managed to get in with the Captain, so went off the 1st. I was 4 over gross, played really well. Had to DQ ourselves due to our own stupidity...... played off whites for a comp that was stated to be off the yellows. We were only a point behind the winners as well. DOH!

Still, enjoyed it.

Went out today. Layered up with fleece lined trousers on to boot. Shirt sleeves by the 6th, wishing Id still got shorts on by the 12th! 33point haul, with the less said the better about putting 2 OOB in a row off the 18th tee!

 

[User 99]

Level for 9 holes, gonna have to stop this going out on my own during the week as I play utter gash at the weekends.

 

[Imurg]

Stupid bloody game!!!
Level par standing on the 9th tee - tee shot goes 250 right side of fairway, 160 to the pin.....
13 over for the rest of the round....
Completely forgot how to play.....
Stupid game..

Get in. HDID published the results from the weekend on Monday and looked as though it hadn't been split into divisions which meant I came 7th overall (still not too bad) but it has now been re-issued into divisions and the notification on my phone says I'm now second in division 2 so looks like a few more quid in pro shop vouchers coming. Only had 34 but CSS went u to 72 (par 70) as it seemed to play really tough. No change in handicap sadly but its twice I've come second recently so have to be pleased with the consistency. Very happy

Excellent day yesterday with Captainron, LQ and Dan from Woodhall at Porthcawl. We didn't threaten the prizes but the highlight was entering the 2's sweep then having a sandy par and 3 birdies on the par 3 7th hole. Non stop bantz from start to finish

 

[louise_a]

played in my last open of the year at Clitheroe today, I hit the long shots well lbut very unusually I couldn't hit my wedges straight, hitting the green from inside 100 yds is one of my strengths but today on 5 of the first 6 holes, I had wedge or 9iron to the green and missed the green each time, I hope it was just a temporary fault

 

[patricks148]

again wasn't planning on playing as the forecast was for heavy rain.

FYI, not a drop and prob 16 deg again, so shorts dug out and a few others had the same idea.

half in the match 4BBB (4 down on the front 9) and again won the team best 2 score to count.

 

[BrianM]

Went out for 10 holes after been away on holiday and work for the last month.
Wish I never bothered, was horrendous.

Played the front nine at sunny Bedlingtonshire this afternoon after my Mizuno fitting yesterday. My ball position and alignment came in for some criticism so went out with the intention of trying to correct both. Shot 2 under gross and absolutely striped it! Do I need new clubs?

Great day and what a tough course it is.

2 balls down after 4 holes got me thinking would I have enough to last me the round

Thanks for organsing and its one comp that I will do again.

Poor chipping a sign of A Bothered Mind?

Not sure what you mean by that, 2 were to long and 1 was to short , poor technique. Resulting in bogies.
