Playing off 22. Your handicap must have come down a fair bit, good stuff![]()
It has, kinda, but also an 'easy' course
![Stick Out Tongue :p :p](/styles/default/xenforo/vbSmilies/Normal/tongue.gif)
Course Rating 66 for a par 70, slope 115
Started the year at 32.3 iirc, currently 26.2, has been down to 25.5 a bit ago. My aim for the year is <25 so on target to say the least so pretty happy with that

Monthly Medal Played today. First ever real comp.
Nerves got the better of me for the first 3 holes and quickly found myself + 5
Soon got into my stride and finished the front 9 Par 35/42
Onto the back 9 and started strong. following holes went 4/5, 5/5, 3/3, 4/5, 4/4 and was + 2 after 5 holes. Then disaster struck
Monster Par 5 at 545y. Didn't catch my driver and shot it off right into a bush 200y down the fairway. Unplayable taken. To then chuck my 3rd shot straight back into the same bush.
Basically I finished 5/10. Just astonishing.
Then onto a simple Par 4 at 340y. took 5i to leave a nice 140y. Left the face open and pushed right to be blocked out by a tree. Chipped out and into a pitch mark. Managed to get it out but into a bunker.
Basically walked off with a big fat 8. 9 shots dropped in two holes. Confidence properly gone.
I then managed Par/Par/Bogy on last 3 holes to finish the back 9 37/50. Overall 72/92 for a Net 79.
Absolutely gutted with this two holes but that's golf. onto the next round and the next comp![]()
That's golf
