Sorry to hear this mate. I bet carrying Dan and Cameron all the time hasn’t helped. Don’t rush it and hope you are back carrying those two soon👍
cheers Chris.

Hopefully just a small price to pay when I am carrying those two round all the time, if only they had a game like mine ;)

I hit 200 balls on the practice area today then about 50/60 x 50 yard pitch shots.

Was pretty knackered by the end but was driven off as I needed a Tom Kite otherwise I'd have done some 75 and 100 yard shots too.

Got a lesson on Tuesday morning so I'll hit some more balls after that too. Really was a stunning morning here, crisp and sunny hitting off of frozen turf to start before it started to thaw out.

Course closed first thing as there was some snow.


We were booked for 11.30 but the log jam would push us back further. Arrived at 12 and the course was jammed even though it was freezing and pishing down.

We have a winter layout where start on the 10th tee. We skipped the crowds and played off the old 1st. Got 8 soaking cold holes in before calling it a day. Probably shouldn't have bothered.

Played Fortrose today, was driving the ball lovely but irons were so so.
Implementing a slight grip change to stop slicing the ball, is working with the driver but not so much the irons.
Just doesn’t feel right but I know I’ve got to persevere.

Played Bury with LB an Birchy. Cracking little course, will have to go back in the summer.

Started off with a birdie on a 140yd par 3 with a shot 😆

Driver was useless, tops an slices 👎🏻 Rest of the game was pretty good. 39pts. Always nice to take the money. Cheers fellas 👍🏻

Course was very wet today, it rained, blew and was cold and lost a friendly 4bbb

Not sure how, I played the 1st nine in one over gross and only dropped about 7 shots 😣😣

Played fairly solidly in winter comp for 38 points. 3 birdies, an eagle and burned the edge a few times. One loose tee shot and mediocre chipping the negatives.

Rained so stayed in bed. Wandered up for a lunchtime drink and to do some putting and as soon as I got on the putting green it tipped down again. Took it as a signed so stayed in to watch the footie and left in time to get home to a brilliant England and City performance

Played Monday after a 2-week lay-off and couldn’t hit a cow’s backside with a banjo but my partner was on fire and we won the dosh.

So move onto today and I’d got my Mojo back and had the same partner in a 3-man team this time.

I played great and although we only came 3rd we got our money back. But he played poorly.

Is there a more unpredictable game than golf?😂

Impromptu game at bootle this avvy, 36pts, nowhere near the prize money in a 4ball.

Driver good, finally a hybrid I like! irons crap, chippin good, putter cold. One day it’ll all come together..?

Usual 3 ball yesterday.
Snow, rain, frost, work all got in the way so, apart from a quick solo effort last week, it seemed like ages since playing.
Steady front 9 of +3, lost it a little on the back especially the last 3 holes.
Double, double, double, doesn't improve any card but I could feel the fatigue kicking in.
Driver misbehaved all the way round...got some work to do there.

Dispatched with ease or did you need to get out of first gear. Were the three doubles just to keep him interested?

No I was knackered!!
Took him by 2..... Or 1 according to his dodgy maths....:unsure::ROFLMAO:

It actually went down to the last, if he blobbed it and I parred it, I’d have got him on countback.

He blobbed it and I was unable to capitalise on his error
33 points to 31 .
Ill have him yet 😎

Played today at Dummer (courtesy 2 ball due to a bad experience late last year,) it was like playing in the middle of summer. The fairways were in great condition and the greens perfect. Coupled with the lovely sunshine it was hard to believe it is only the middle of February.

It was absolutely beautiful today. Glad I left the base layer at home, was plenty warm enough with just the 2 layers on. Played decent enough, 32 points. Arcot was in very good nick for the time of year, hopefully they will take the fairway protection off soon.

Got to admire the optimism. All you need to do now is put it into action. I'm sure you'll have your day and you need to be getting out regularly after what was a bit of an annus horriblis
