Shock horror ............................... Slime's playing golf tomorrow!

[Slime]

Wow.
I'm off to play golf tomorrow ............................... but can barely remember how!
It'll be my first game since H4H last year.
I'm looking forward to it like you wouldn't believe ........................ and it'll certainly be interesting.



Slime.

Well good luck for tomorrow,

It's going to go 1 of 2 ways.

1:- Best round ever
2:- going to kick your self all the way round 😀

 

[chrisd]

Will you still have that slice?

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Good luck. Need t know what happens. Hope it goes well

 

[Slime]

Slice .............................. what slice?
To be fair, James did a good job of coaching it out of me a while back :thup:.

Well ................................... you asked for it!
I had a really fun day, although the weather was quite cold and reasonably windy.
I found 7 of 13 fairways, but only 3 of 18 greens hit.
I took 35 putts, including four 3 putts in the first eight holes, and finished with 6 pars.
I lost two balls, blobbed three holes and won a beer by beating both playing partners.
Yes ....................... a bloody good day!


Slime.

Oh, and I went in ONLY ONE bunker all day!

 

[JustOne]

......and finished with 6 pars.

Sounds like you were just getting started..... :thup:

Have a good year mate, glad to hear you're back playing :thup:

Well played and let's hope you get out a bit more often!

The strange thing is that I have been out again!
My twin brother & I were taken to Old Thorns, Liphook, by our wives.
The weather was dry & sometimes sunny .................. but always windy, and we played on Thursday afternoon & Friday morning.
Thursday was awful! I managed to take three off the tee four times, lost a few balls, managed two pars and finished with 23 points after taking 107 shots, of which 36 were putts.
I only hit 5 fairways and 3 greens ....................... pathetic.
The next day started off in the same manner.
Rubbish on the range, the wind was blowing a hooley & then I topped my drive on the first.
Then it changed!
I hit a lovely 7 iron to 15 feet and walked off with a comfy par ................ more was to follow!
IF ONLY I COULD PUTT!
I took just 18 tee shots, hit 7 fairways and 11 greens ....................... but took 39 putts, including a four-putt!
This time I had 5 pars and 2 birdies, scored 43 points and took 86 shots, that's 21 less than the previous afternoon, and I finished with the ball I'd started with!
Handicap is now at 18.6, I'm happy with that.
Sorry to blow my own trumpet but it wasn't 'til yesterday that I realised that I actually had a trumpet.
What a crazy game we play.
The difference?
A slow back swing, simple as that. It prevents me from over swinging, that's all!
Oh, and NEVER give up.


Slime.


IF ONLY I COULD PUTT!

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Given the lack of golf that represents some ok golf. Putting is something I feel always needs work as feel always seems to be the first thing to go after a lengthy break. Hopefully you'll play a little more often and the putting and rest of the game comes back

43 points is better than OK.

Well done Slime! Hopefully you keep enjoying your golf.

Well I didn't want to big him up too much!

86 shots ................ Nearly matched your age after the recent birthday then!

I didn't expect to shoot your age though .
