The Berkshire (Blue) Wednesday 16th March

Tough finish JD, and I think I must have beaten you on count back.:whoo:

It is and you probably did (I scored 16 points on the back nine) but I flaming well blobbed 14 after hitting the perfect drive, I then 3-stabbed 16 &18 and blocked myself out up the right on 17 without a stroke.

Up until then all had been going swimmingly.
 
:( Well that told me. Now can anyone tell me where the the ignore button is.:mmm:
You are lethal with a rescue from just off the green though :thup: :D

Whenever I looked back on wed it seemed to me that you all seemed to be smack bang in the fairway a lot of times - and a good distance down the fairway as well

I hit a drive into the trees on 17, and when I went over there were hundreds of golf balls scattered about. Greenkeeper must have raked them all out. Couldn't find my Dunlop Warwick amongst so many others.:(

That's your big mistake. It's a false economy to play a budget ball, personally I'm a Penfold Commando all day long and to hell with the expense:mmm:
 
Did I mention I walked off the 15th green with a very tidy 31 points and then finished 1, 1, 1!! :whistle:

I cudda (and indeed shudda) been a contender.

Gutted!!!

Indeed, you were stuffing me after 11 by about 8 points, it took me to the 17th to make 30, so walking off 18 with 34 and nicking it on count back was a very pleasant surprise.

Thank God we forgot to throw the fivers in :D. :thup:

It was a meltdown that just seemed to creep up on me through a lack of focus. I had a makeable putt on 18 for a par and ended up with a jeffing double bogey!!!

Mind you your birdie for 4 points on the last was a great result and for that alone you *deserved to do me on count back.


*Hope I've managed to disguise my bitterness. :whistle:
 
How wide were you? We didn't find that lot until the 18th!! :eek:
I will admit I pushed it a little. :whistle: Pulled my provisional on the the 16th. Not often you are on two different holes, and neither are the one you are playing.:eek:

To be fair I didn't miss many fairways, but when I did .......:o

I liked the Commando, but not as good as the Dunlop Goblin ball.;)

I used to play the Slazenger B51. Sounded so cool, and it came in its own box, wrapped in tissue.
