Wish me luck!

[Aztecs27]

Off to the club shortly for the 1st round of the Club Champs. Slightly nervous, but I'll be fine. High or low score, I'm sure it will be a good crack and it's all experience.

Will report back for round 1 later on.

Good luck, dont do anything stupid and keep a cool head

 

[bluewolf]

good luck mate. just enjoy it and play conservatively...concentrate on the post round drinks, it always focuses my mind...

 

[PNWokingham]

best of luck - one shot at a time, play for conservative bogeys or pars nd take a few pars - helps avoid the big numbers. Ours is next weekend and I have a hard act to beat my 98/98 from last year!!

 

[Crow]

Good luck.

I was going to give you a tip that would guarantee you a great score but you've probably left for the course by now so I won't bother.

 

[cirrus]

Have a good day, hope the rain stays away..

 

[Oddsocks]

[Losttheplot]

I reckon he got lost going to the club. He hasn't been a member long

You're all knobs!

Well...that didn't go to plan

Started off ok with a bogey and a double bogey and two more bogeys before finally parring the par 3 6th.

Was striking the ball ok, and not really doing anything with the putter but it was steady.

Ended up with a 46 going out which was over handicap but OK I thought for my 1st club medal and 1st Club Championship.

Back 9 started ok. Still wasn't holing any putts or they were lipping out....Then the par 4 13th. S.I. 1. Off the whites it was playing like a par 5 today as it was into the wind. Hit a stonking drive and whipped out my 3 wood for the second. Proceeded to hook it (great strike though!) into no man's land on the 1st side of the hole and reloaded with a better strike. Ended up with a 7 which I wasn't too displeased with.

Where it all fell apart was the par 5 15th.

Tee shot - Straight pull (caught it lovely though ) *just* too far left OOB into the farmers field.

Re-loaded - Hooked it straight left into the field.

Re-loaded (now with 2 iron) - pushed right onto the 17th green.

Ended up with 11 and stopped caring at this point. Still played some OK shots on the last 3 holes, but my putting had disappeared all day, along with my short game.

Finished with 101, the 1st time I've shot over 100 for a while and was pretty annoyed, but it's all experience. Currently sat 4th from bottom in my division (6th from bottom gross) in the standings after day one and as such am out in the second group tomorrow at 8:32.

At least the sun shone today, it's forecast torrential rain tomorrow

So all in all, a pretty poor day, but the company was good and I'm not last

You're all knobs!

And with a score like that your a.......

only joking glad u had fun Id love to shoot 101

 

[goldenbare]

You're all knobs!

Ended up with 11 and stopped caring at this point

I'm glad somebody beat my 10, and that was on the first hole
At least I had some time to recover for a 93. Had reset my goal to beating 90 but managed another 9 as a 10 minute hooly hit us on the par 5 14th.
