The swindle this morning was the first one of the year off the blue tees and therefore the first time I've ever played off single figures! ;) I shot an 83 which was good for 34 points and the win šŸ‘šŸ»

One of the guys in my group is off +3 off the blues; difficult for him to win anything when he's only getting a point for a par on some holes!

What a mad roundā€¦ feel conflicted but I guess need to be happy in the end.

Couple of pars to start and literally an inch from being 3 in a row. Then FIVE doubles in a rowā€¦ all just annoying/silly stuff I know I need to irradiate from my gameā€¦ finally started listening to the voice in my head that says ā€œcā€™mon thenā€¦ resetā€ on the 9th and finished the last 10 holes +3

36 points (8 off the lead when I left, but so much to be positive aboutā€¦ if I donā€™t ignore the FIVE DOUBLES šŸ„²)

Well I didn't play the Stableford comp today as, when we were having a bite before playing, we clocked groups taking just over 2 hours to play the 9th and tee off the 10th...
Ridiculous for 3 balls playing Stableford around our place.
We decided to just play..Fraagger and our 3rd player putt in 9 hole cards tso we had the option of coming off when we wanted..
Jeez it was slow....2 hours to the minute for the front 9
Things improved slightly on the back 9 but we'd still have been playing 17 and 18 in very gloomy light so it turned out to be the right choice.
If play had been normal pace then we'd have made it witn plenty to spare.
2 over handicap after t6 holes so not bad..
Will be thinking twice about playing winter comps from now on unless we can get an early time...

Rubbish front 9šŸ˜© decent back 9, all 18 could of been so much better, light winds, sunshine, no excuses.

Any how, guy in our 4 Ball teeing off on our 11th hooks his tee shot back down 10th towards the green, shouts fore and sends the 4 Ball behind us scattering to take cover, he then plays his 2nd shot back over the bushes towards me and another guy from our 4 Ball, nearly hitting us, he couldnā€™t see us and was not in the right direction for the 11th green, he then duffs his 3rd over a ditch and in to some trees still 40-50yds from the green, by this time the rest of us are on the green waiting, he then takes his 4th shot and slam dunks it in the hole for a Par! Strangest Par Iā€™ve ever witnessed.šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚
