well what can i say. from my perspective, i felt i jumped a little to quick in to links golf and really payed the penalty, although my prep wasn'T the best, the course was just evil to me, and genuinley payed the price for my naivity towards it, altough the 2nd day for myself was alot better, it was still pretty poor.
ive never felt so miserable on a golf course, yet enjoyed a round quite as much as i did. so very strange emotions
very dissapointed with the positive chances i created for myself when i produced the shots that i know i am capable. and failing to capitalise on them
think i gave steve nick and gary a reality check thou and just reminded them what the rough was like on golf courses
but from a team point of view gary's driving was absolutely top notch, can only recall one poor drive which was slighty right, and he also had the hole of the round for me, the 9th i believe (along side the driving range, with the bunker work) a beautiful drive an absolutley crushed fw, a tricky pitch on an awkward lie which resulted in a beautiful up and down.
steves putting was also excellent, showing us all the Langer way
and nicks ability to get out of the rough with such ease was also a learning point i took.
but the night was great, got too know the guys, and learn about a few forum members haha aswell of the bargain of the century in the carvery. gotta love wales
so as a foot note, would i play links again? yes
would i wait untill i was more accomplished as a golfer? yes
would i do another forum meet? hell yea, already looking at the ones coming up and looking which are strictly parkland courses or the rough dosent look above 2"s haha
so just want to say thanks for nick steve and gary for a excellent trip and making me feel at ease throughout and look forward to playing them again, and giving them more a run for there money.
