I played today and..(Rolling) -originally created by JohnnyDee

Played nine, very poorly in the pouring rain. Felt distinctly under the weather before I started and worse once I was out there. Still not feeling 100% and suppose to be out tomorrow in the roll up. Massive 11 points for my nine and a bad dose of the lefts, going left. Managed to beat HawkeyeMS who only had 10 going out
Have you found my prov1 in the woods ob on your 4th yet?? Please don’t assume anything from it’s green pen markings😱 I borrowed it from chrisd👍
 
Back to Fortrose today, played well tee to green but putting poor again.
Started using my 3 wood today, was smashing it as long as my driver, it’s sat in the bag unused for months as I have never used one before, will be using it more often now 😀
 
Friendly knock round Ruislip yesterday, course deserted so we raced round. Played quite well, consistent with nothing worse than a double bogey. 87 blows, 38 points. Pretty pleased with that. No three putts which was great after a couple of weeks of poor putting.
 
After barely managing to hit the ball at last week's Kent Links meet I played a friendly at mine this morning and shot 78 gross (66 nett) with 6 x 1 putts - however, this week it wasn't 30mph+ winds, rain and hail, it does make a difference 😁

Well done mate. Some good golf sir. You obviously gave the chief carer BiM the day off. :love:
 
Wrong decision yesterday - to play or not to play.
After playing the 4th we were all wishing we had not started but as it was a team game we carried on.
Probably my worst opening 8 holes in a long time,just 8 points and two lost balls on hole.
Partly salvaged with 22 points for the remaining 10.
Annoyingly our team lost on count back.

I am intrigued as to your idea of racing round.
 
How did the shaft snap. Raw power or did it meet an obstacle in its parth (intenionally or not)?

I think it has been split for a while. The ferrule cracked, which in retrospect was a sign of all not being well. Glued the ferrule back together, split again and then the shaft split was obvious as the head became wobbly.

I don't remember abusing my 5w. Well, certainly not half as much as my driver gets stick, and don't get me started on 6 irons. If ever a club was made for breaking, it's a 6i.

Sand wedges just get stuck up trees. Along with putters. And rakes.
 
First round since H4H at Liphook (from memory) Winter League. We played well, and managed a half. One of our oppos off nine played the last 14 holes in level par, so not a bad result. Lovely out on the course, gentle breeze, and course playing firm.

Putting greatly improved, after realising I had hands behind the ball. Forward press seemed to work, but not sure for how long.
 
Big roll up comp today. Not feeling 100% but played OK. 37 points won and I had 33 including a run between 11-13 where I only got a measly point. Add in another couple of one pointers and not scoring at the last and it was one that got away but played well in spurts
 
Played a 9 holer, couldn’t find a fairway for love nor money but man these irons :love:

Take dead aim. Rolled in some lovely putts too. Exciting times
 
Had the Odyssey O-Works V-Line Fang CH Putter in the bag today. Hadn't used it for ages and putted really well with it using Chrome Softs. Need to try it again with firmer balls but it worked a treat for the most part today. Might have found the answer to my putter indecision
 
played Hickory at Tain today as Dornoch was down to 16 holes for Maintenance .

Played rubbish, real rubbish. lots of 3 putts and blocked drives and broke my Mashie Niblick:(
 
Fantastic day at Royal Liverpool with the NW lot (and Pappas). Much better course than I was led to believe. Position off the tee was critical. Conditioning was stunning and some of the greens were exceptional.

Was 1 over gross after 10 but a couple of stupid doubles on the back 9 dragged the score up. 4 x 3 putts cost me an excellent score 😫

I really enjoyed the course and far better than some rate - glad you boys had a good day out 🏌🏿‍♂️
