...blowing alert!

Sorry to sound like a bragger but I'm chuffed to bits tonight as just found out I won the July medal today (both category & overall) with a net 65! Cut 1.5 to new personal best of 13.5!

Started pretty poorly as went OB on the 2nd leading to a triple but managed to steady the ship and had a cracking back 9 (3 over gross). Pretty pleased because i've previously been prone to putting myself under loads of pressure in medal rounds leading to anxiety/tension and ultimately to a vicious cycle of increasingly poor shots etc. Today just kept telling myself "it's only a game of golf" (repeatedly) when things were not going so well and just took it one shot at a time.

Golf...an easy game when it comes together eh??
 
Champion news Doctor, how about passing me some tips and confidence.

I played with a 16 handicapper today who was quite clearly a better golfer than me!
 
Well done Bunkers, seems there's a bit of it about lately. :)

We can't win a division prize if we win an overall one. Do you get 2 prizes?
 
Awesome ! Well played mate....
First round of the club champs this morning..
Started with a 8 (par 4) and that set the tone for the day...
I shot an awful 95, 5 over handicap... i did however make an awesome 2! :p
Hopefully i can salvage something tommorow!
 
Cheers boys, it's been a little while coming this year but it seems to be coming together of late.

Won the money for 1st in division plus a crystal whisky glass for overall...now to work on winning a whole set of them!!
 
Good stuff fella, sod the prizes, a healthy cut is always nice, another cut of any kind this or next week and you are down to 13!
Managed a small cut yesterday myself having been buffer/handicap every week since the start of June, shot a 78 in the monthly medal to drop a couple of points. Still off 8 but every little helps!:)

Keep 'er lit my good man!
 
Totally agree.

Scored 3 points in the first 4 holes today - managed to claw it back to 35 points and into the buffer zone. better than 0.1 up
