Long day but very enjoyable. Always good to put a few more faces to forum names (James, Matty, Nick) but a pity I didn't get to meet any other of the guys who were playing in various other teams.

As expected, the forum 'A' team tonked the 'B' team by a full point and therefore deserve bragging rights Highlight for our team was James' birdie putt on the par 3 14th. Looked like 30ft from the tee but when we got to the green it was more like 100 and as it took 10 mins to trickle all the way down to the hole it must have been 200ft! No need to mention that I then missed my birdie putt on the same hole from 6ft*

*what happens on tour stays on tour :thup:

Windy Links golf is hard

How did the new putter perform?

How did the new putter perform?

it was pretty good, I lipped out on a couple where I smashed in through the break but it felt good, rolled it pretty well
performed under pressure when one of my team picked up thinking the 5th was a par 4
it would be indiscrete for me to name & shame them

I am still exhausted..... I thought winning didn't tire you out!

Definitely not a course for the carriers! I'm feeling it today.

It's a good walk, especially when you add the shotgun start/finish at the 16th.
