Sub 80 !!

Well done Amanda. Have you wondered what you might score with a 14th club in the bag, maybe a lob wedge? I only use mine once every couple of rounds but it comes in handy, and I'm nowhere near your standard.

I have thought about it but not sure when I'd use it plus other half David swears adding one to his bag gave him the shhhhhhh.... unmnetionables ! Currently don't use my sand wedge as much as I should though and winter plan is to finish Dave Pelz's Short Game Bible and practice, practice, practice !
 
Great shooting Amanda and hope you're going to show off your golfing prowess at a few GM meets next year. Its funny how the mere thought of a good round can make the putter that bit twitchier and you start thinking that bit more. Why can't we leave the thinking until the end? Great shooting though

I certainly hope to play and meet my new found virtual friends in the golf world :cool:

Agree about the putter and oh to keep that carefree trust when the going gets tough !
 
Good shooting, Amanda!

I have had a horrible year on the course. It started off okay with some steady stuff, but around spring my entire game just deserted me to the point I stood over the ball not having the first clue where it was going to go. Not a nice feeling for someone who got down to single figures last year!

The last two or three weeks have started to see some positive signs, but I was still having the odd horror hole. Not something you can afford if you aspire to play at a good standard consistently.

I went out this morning and for the first time in 7 or 8 months started to feel comfortable with what I was doing. 79 shots later I was sitting in the clubhouse with a pint and a broad smile! My first sub 80 for six months, certainly not my first, but probably the most satisfying.

Excellent - perhaps I've started a trend :cool: Onwards and upwards !!

I scored 84 today which is still a few under handicap so happy with that. Not much between the rounds really - 3 putts more (no chip in today) and slightly less accurate. Finished with a textbook par on 18 which makes me :)
