Yesterday's board comp in wet and windy weather.

Started off with two doubles, but followed up by my first ever birdie in medal comp, 2nd shot pitched right by the hole bounced and hit the flag leaving me with a tricky 6 foot put, put managed to hole it!
then hit the par 3 6th green off the tee for the first time and annoyingly 3 putted,
then a steady bunch of bogies with the odd double and a treble thrown in till a great finish in the worst of the weather with a par par finish.

Score 92 net 69 with a CSS of 72! Cut from 23.0 to 21.8!

Really pleased! ⛳️

Now on to the match play knockout on Monday! Another first ever!
 
Good golf and a great feeling to be improving.
I am moving in the the opposite direction but can just about recall my last cut!!!

if the weather was anything like we had round here then putting a round together and getting a cut is very good indeed.
 
In reality you have come down 1 shot is difficult conditions so well played and it will take you several rounds to get that shot back so another good round and another shot off at least.

Well done and sub 20 should be a realistic aim for you in the wet and wind (I prefer hot and firm conditions Ha ha).

All the best.

I won a society day last year in the wind as well! I don't try and overcompensate for it like most of my playing partners seem to do!

Also in squally showers like yesterday my PP took his wet clothing on and off at least 3 times! I'm sure it cost him a shot at least! He even threatened to walk in!!

Mind you he is a desk jockey and has never worked outside! When you have done a 12 hour night shift in shap in January or climbed skidaw in a blizzard then a bit of wind and rain playing golf doesn't phase you!
 
Well played, nothing better than coming in off the course knowing you've played well.

I've played 6 medals this year and all have been +0.1s, would love to play close to my handicap just now!
