Committed the cardinal sin of birdieing the first today....downhill all the way from there...
Well, for the next hole coz I blobbed it but after that everything went swimmingly well.
+2 for 20 points including that treble made for a fine front 9.
Got a little ragged on the way back but still managed a couple of birdies, including the 2's pot(again)..
+6 for 38 points - I'll take that, especially as we could barely see greens for the front 9 at times due to most.
Fragger was heftily put to the sword - standing on the 17th tee he'd just matched my front 9....
A good day out of the office

Finished work at 12, hit the range, red hot day. Can of boddingtons. Chat with people I haven’t seen since the season end. Then played 9 holes.
Ready for Saturday and Sunday golf.

That’s why I chose not to birdie the first!!!

went out at lunchtime wearing a jumper and polo shirt. jumper was abandoned after a couple of holes as it was so warm - 15 degrees in mid-Feb, crazy weather, but very nice. Golf wasn't too bad either apart from a horrible run of 3 holes without scoring, ended up with 34 points.

First time at Wollaton Park on Tee Tours event, off the whites and 35 points off my own bat and a paltry 78 for the team. Lovely course in lovely weather and got close to the deer

First (9-hole) round of the year today
Beautiful weather here - like a nice April day in Scotland - Lady outcast walked round with me and kept score
Golf-wise, 3 pars 3 bogeys, & 3 doubles; 4 three-putts - including putting across the green into the lake !
Typical day at the course (pars excepted)
Played the last with an 85-year old - put him to the sword at least

Was in termoil, to hit the practise ground or go and play. I was on the putting green for 4hrs the other day sorting it out so decided to play with our +1 young lad.
1 eagle, 3 birdies, 12 pars 1 bogey, and a silly double for 2 under gross. Best shot of the day was my 3w from 233yd to par 5 arrow straight nice high flight landed 231 and stopped 3ft Kaboom baby - period.

Played in a 4BBB today and it finally happened. After playing golf for over 30 years I finally witnessed a hole-in-one. Not me, but my playing partner, an 8 iron that flew straight into the hole without touching the sides.

Card 5 of spring league. 5 over. No worse than a 5 on the card. Does nicely.

 

[BubbaP]

First qualifier of the year, back off the whites after all the fun winter stuff off the yellows and nearer - in the past I've struggled with the transition. Misty start burning off to a lovely sunny day and forecast wind never really picked up.
Was shanksville warming up which wasn't ideal, took 11 or so holes to stop worrying with an iron in hand but was actually pretty steady, 83 gross, 35 points.
Pretty pleased.

Two days of absolute drivel. Lost my swing completely after a decent purple patch. Try again tomorrow

Cracking week off and magical weather for Feb, was like playing in spring. After playing both cracking saunton courses(looking forward to playing it more this year) and cleeve hill(enjoyed this hilly course a lot) finished the week off and played:-

Burnham & Berrow, cracking first few holes and nice end holes. Middle holes okayish. Best greens of the week. Iron Bryon swing that day, was playing like a machine, thanks to 4 three putts shot 6 over.

Naunton Downs Golf Club, nice 18 holes with some cracking holes iirc in particular 6,8,9. Friendly pro, and some nice views. Good condition, all round enjoyed playable course.

Painswick golf courses, well the course is truly bonkers but would not be revisit. Hilly course Some one off holes and great fun, but the walkers just made it dangerous, like the family having a picnic by the 12th green, walkers walking in front as we are hitting our tee shots, walkers on the greens or very close to, when completely blind shots from the tee(5th and 10th). A car driving past just as wife hit a shot on the 16th, how the ball didnt hit the car we still dont know. Did have a laugh with three young adults on the 3rd tee who had their music playing loud, and after the 3 of us nailed ours drives, they gave us a round of applause.

Final game for us in the local winter league today and a 5 -1 win would have virtually guaranteed us the league for the first time in many many years. Our opponents only needed any sort of win to take the title, while a draw would hand it to a team who play their final game next weekend. We ended up winning 3.5 - 2.5 so still have a good chance of taking the league as the only other team that can catch us must now win away 4.5 - 1.5 to equal us. I lost my game on 17 but my opponent, who was off 18, parred six of the first 10 holes and had the equivalent of 25 stableford points at that stage so it was tough to keep up.

Last game of the Winter League today, we were playing for pride while our opponents had a chance of finishing 2nd, thick sea fret (fog) for the first 4 holes then it cleared in 20 minutes and remaining holes played in beautiful sunshine.
Really pleased with the Golf and we won 5-1, also had 42 points in Club 4BBB Comp.

Amazing wall to wall sunshine this morning.

I actually played golf today for the 1st time in ages, hit the ball well, couple of stupid course management shots that didn’t help.

34 points and for me that’s a miracle 🤣
