went up a couple of 0.1's hit a couple of buffers and a cut of 0.3. Now just lower than I started the year but looking like more to come.
My 12 year old son has been cut 6 shots so far down to 18.5....... he won the monthly medal and a junior medal the in two consecutive weekends. After the second win they gave him a double cut....
 
Had an email from the club yesterday whilst at the Adams fitting day that my new handicap is 19 due to a Nett 62 on Tuesday :)
 
I've gone up 0.9 this season! Not great really I've had 8 x 0.1 and a buffer! Doesn't really reflect the fact that I'm actually playing better just not scoring well if that makes sense although I can feel it coming together.
 
Played in 17 qualifiers so far this year and added 0.1 to my handicap. Lost a shot then over the last 10 qualifiers I have got it back again. Not best pleased to say the least!
 
Started at 14.2, now 10.3. Was as low as 9.7 but didn't believe I deserved that low a handicap and thus played badly. Have got my belief back now and currently playing to 10 so I've arrested the slide. Hoping to kick on again soon!
 
I've dropped from 14 to 12 after a good round in the Open Stableford, then back up to 12.3 with a bad medal round and after yesterday's nightmare in the club Championships probably another 0.1 back on!
