Played Ballyliffin Glashedy in an absolute hooley today. Opened with a cool triple from the middle of the fairway on the first. Drive and a duffed 3 iron left me 90 odd yards out. Into the wind I tried to knock down a 9 iron to keep down the spin. Didn't matter. Wind got it and pushed it off the green and down the slope. Nice pitch to 8 feet past. Put the putt 5 feet past down hill and down wind. 3 putt 7. Ouch.
Was 5 over through 3.
Finally got my first par on the 4th and got to grips with the wind.
Battled through to a 12 over round which wasn't bad as it matched my mate who plays off scratch.
Won the catch the leader game we were playing between 3 of us by parring the last 4 holes.
Greens were lightening quick and you needed to be on it all day or you looked like a fool. Not easy with the putter blowing about on the backswing.
Body is sore now and my legs are cramping.
Enjoyed the challenge and battle of the wind but wouldn't fancy that every day.
