What time and where?

Played at Nairn this morning with the usual suspects, but our fourball didn't last long the Sherieff didn't even make it to the first green and my partner disappeared on the 5th. Two of us battled 60 mph gail, hailstones for the first 6 holes then the sun came out and it was quite nice, even better once we got the wind behind:)
 
Played in the turkey stakes this morning at 8.52. I love golf, it is so precise.

Played donk golf, due to having a groin strain.

Donk it off the tee, donk it near the green, donk it on, putt.

If I hadn't three putted 3 greens on the front nine, and chipped like a pillock I might have scored ok. Was one over gross on the back nine though (the obligatory three stab on the 13th).

Oddly, swinging at 60% was no more accurate. Back nine fw hit was one, gir was 4. Putts was 14, including the 3 stab.

Stupid game.
 
Played awful, short game was bad and putting was terrible. Lost the plot with how slow it was (4hr 45 for 3 balls), dont think Ive played that bad for a long while (and may have broken the record for number of F words in 18 holes!)
 
Played this morning. Well I say that, I walked around and swung some metal implements wildly in the direction of the ball. Was due to play with Hawkeye tomorrow but my mum isn't too well so going down to do the doting son bit and cheer her up
 
Nice to here the new irons are performing.

Spend the time with your mum. As I know well, they are not around forever.

Just one of those days. Not truly focussed as I was ummin and ahhin about seeing her today. Swing was way out of kilter, mind not on the job and in the end it disintergrated into a glorified walk in the sun. If I was going to be selfish I'd grab an hour at the range about 9 ish before going but the lure of a lie in is sounding too good to miss. The R11's working well at the range just need to be able to have a clear mind. Good news is its nothing serious (sounds like just a bad cold really) but hadn't been down for a few weeks and so feel guilty anyway
