I've had another .1!!
5 years of hard work on my game have seen me improve from 10.9 to 13.5 - a new pinnacle (not the ball !) for me.
Maybe with a few more years work I'll be able to get back to the 16 I was playing off in the 90's!

You have to play to go up 0.1
You cant just decide yourself:smirk:

SO did I at the weekend, a nice 30yd chip in birdie 4, mind you it followed the 14 on the previous hole where I lost two balls. Oh yeah and on three par 3's I was 9 over. Someone asked if I was entering the two's as I signed in, I asked if they meant hitting the green in two.

You being a 7 handicapper and playing you off scratch was always going to be a little tricky James.
And I hardly call one blocked drive down 17 a "car crash" now.
I just worked out that had I been taking my shots off of you I would have beaten you 3&2.
Well played mate

Practice, badly needed practice, plus we had no one behind us, the weather was good, the other two were doing the same and we were enjoying ourselves. A bit of golf, a lot of banter, generally having a good laugh.

Just a timely reminder.....(and not having a pop Dave).
We will be playing matchplay on both days during our stay. Forest Pines if fairly (read very) tight.
If you have cocked up on a hole, and it's fairly obvious that your opponent is going to win the holes, please could you pick up and proceed to the next hole please?
It's not two rounds of medal play so we don't want to end up being out on the course for 5 hours or more.
Hope you understand.

Then you'll only have around 40 shots the whole weekend. Not great value for money.

But I'll have time for a nice shower before dinner on Sunday evening and will get home at a reasonable time on Monday afternoon....
Much better than putting for an 11 when your opponent has already secured his 3

The value for money, comes from being able to play golf at a great course, in good company, having a few pints and craic on Sunday night and not having to go to work on Monday.

Just been out with a member of handicaps, told on good authority he reckons I'll be off 20! Will be confirmed tonight.
I may as well not bother packing my driver...

Is it me or do all the whippersnappers handicaps seem to be coming down and the old farts going up

It's tactical, you can't play to yours but we can 😜
