Scouser v Bluewolf

glad there is at least one pro not trying to get everyone using the bounce. it has its merits but i see alot of people making a complete hash of the supposedly easier method.

I tried it for a while but really couldn't get on with it so I've gone back to the ball in the back of my stance and playing through the ball better. Chipping has got a lot better since I've done this and I've got the check spin that I had lost using the bounce method.

I lost the check spin that I had before to the point balls would hit the green and roll out the back but I used to be able to stop the ball on the second or third bounce. I've got that back now so I'll stick to the old way of doing it.
 
i use a mixture of both. if im under pressure i usuall go for the old method.

if the ground is soft ill try to use the bounce. if im looking to flop it ill use the bounce.


as it say it has its merits. very useful but i dont think its any better for consistancy which many claim it is.

Well tomorrow, my little one goes off into the big bad world.

He's got his first away matchplay, and fingers crossed for him. I know you have to cut the apron strings some time, but it's a harsh world out there. Cheats, blaggers, bluffers and good players are out there, and I don't think he's prepared just yet. I've tried my hardest to toughen him up in this last year, but he's still naive, and oh so innocent.


I've made him his packed lunch, his favourite treats, and a big bottle of laudanum (sorry, lemonade). I've ironed his frilly polo, pleated leather shorts and basketball socks and I hope he'll fit in ok, as he's not a good mixer, if I'm honest. I'll make his favourite meal for when he comes home - humble pie, just in case he has a bad day. I'll give him his new present before he goes, a thunderslammer driver, oh yes and a silver bullet as well.


I just hope he enjoys it, and doesn't make a show of himself, but you've got to give them their freedom some time.


Fly, fly little birdie.


Fly,fly.:smirk:

Well done me old mucker. Can I have my lucky rabbit foot in the shape of a 4 leaf clover back,now?

I was awaiting the pep talk call today, but you've gone into the big bad world, used your silver bullet, bagged a big bad wolf and your fame will outlive you. I'll collect for your statue soon.

Unlucky Dan, glad to see you have taken it in good spirits, and well done Louise on your 38 points.

He's still here, so stop worrying. I've had to ice the elbow all last night though. It didn't hurt during the round so it's no excuse, but afterwards it seems to have swollen and it hurts like you wouldn't believe....

Really enjoyed it yesterday. Played some good golf on occasion, but every time I did, Ian had a shot and pulled me back. He was solid off the tee and great around the greens. There was a "bit" of luck sometimes, but the result was fair and i've no complaints.
 
Well done Scouser, it was welcoming news that cheered us all up on the 9th at Silloth as we were battling against 35mph wind and rain, put smiles on all of our faces. Your going to need a bigger wall for all these scalps :thup:

You didnt eat one of the poisenous digestives did you? :eek: :D

Hats off to you mate for taking it in great spirit. After seeing him at Davyhulme the other week and playing off against him over a few holes on the back 9 i know how much of a git he can be to play against :D

Kudos to Scouser for sticking at it as well. I remember Formby hall last year he struggled badly but has kept at it and now is getting his rewards.

P.S Get lost im not playing you

He kept trying to force those digestives down my throat. I resisted though and stuck to the Hob Nobs.

You wouldn't believe how much his driving has come on, he knocked a couple out there to the 230-250 mark, and no wind to assist. All he needs to do now is lose some of his many hybrids. Im not sure he carries any iron lower than an 8 iron....:D

Digestives the biscuit of the golfing gods..... Again you are generous with the 250 statement.... Although I was about 200 ahead of you on the first :rofl:

Birchy can we stop with the fFormby hall..... The holes picked up on where reminiscent of it :whistle:
 
Right, I'm gonna cause controversy here..... The hob nobs were nicer than the digestives.... ( yes, even the dark chocolate ones )
 
Well played Ian :thup: sounds like a good day was had by nearly all :D

Unlucky Dan, I hope you havnt booked those flights to New Zealand :D

What do you think........














Best of 3.....:D
