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

Driver, I’m normally pretty straight with it.
I’ve got a brand new 3 wood I’ve never hit, thinking of getting Martin to give me a lesson with it.
there is you problem then. thing about those holes is all about keeping it in play. you could maybe get away with it on the 2nd, but not the others. best round ive ever had round there was without a driver. something that goes 200 off the tee or there about, as long as its straight..... and low;)
 
...and missed a birdie opportunity from about 6-7 feet on the last hole, put the score into the app - and there it was. Another 80 carded. Third time. Never broken 80, so I sure did have a great chance of doing it today. Oh well.
 
A hungover +10/81 in this mornings medal, disappointed as I was only +2 after 9, but I ran out of gas and I lost the ability to hole out.
 
Presidents Day comp was due to be played today but it was called off due to the weather. Not to be outdone, a few of us decided to have a 14 hole comp. Finished with 27 points but don't think I have ever been so wet on a golf course. Not a nice day for golf.
 
Managed 13 holes in the roll up. Found myself last man standing on the 4th green after torrential rain (NOT forecast) meant my PP's called it a day as they didn't have any waterproofs. As last group in the roll up I had little option back to join them. Shame as I'd started nicely. Went out when a group came through after nine in bright sunshine and played like a muppet in terms of tempo and consistency
 
Entered the Autumn Cup (Stableford comp). Shocking front nine of 11 points, decent back nine with 20! Jekyll and Hyde. Always a shame when you put yourself out the running and then remember how to play. Oh well.

Weather was glorious though! Showers about 45 mins before tee off left the course nice and soft, and gave way to beautiful sunshine and 23° all the way round. Not bad for mid October!
 
125 yard hole. Sorry but wouldn’t of counted. There is no mention of windmills, clowns, tunnels and bridges:love:

Ah! There's a large pond in front, 3 bunkers tight left, a stream tight right for the whole length of the green, and you don't want to overshoot long - it can be a real card wrecker!

As as totally expected a man of your caliber overcame all before and around him and mastered the landscape. (y)
 
Back to playing this week and the lay off is really showing. All consistency has gone. Yesterday was a mix of birdies and bogey including a quadruple on hole (I cannot remember the last time I had one of those) but that was partly down to it being late in the round and trying a miracle recovery shot.

Yesterday's really strong winds really affected lots of players. My 87/77 left me mid field when I expected to be near the bottom. Only 3 players broke the SSS.
