Won our handicap team match at home last night 5-1....So that's us 3 wins and a draw so far this campaign.

Won my match 2 up - played solid enough - was never down all night.

My mate won 5&4 including holing his second shot at the par 4 6th from 150 yards out for a 2...... then proceeds to knock in a 15ft putt on the 7th for another 2.... The guy he was playing was extremely gracious about it and said it was just lovely to see some great golf.... Certainly tough to play against back to back 2's
 
Well, back from my club championship a bit earlier than I expected/hoped to be :p

Shot 96 gross, 82 net (par 70), never gonna make the cut with that. Feel somewhat aggrieved with how the game played out, I felt on the front 9 especially I was generally striking the ball really well, like really well, but 1 bad bounce put me in a bunker with a crappy stance (had to stand outside the bunker) and ended up with a triple then 2 poor swings (at least these ones weren't luck :p) also ended in triples. 9 over in 3 holes is just yeah, add in the rest was a case of 'almost pars' for 14 over on the front 9 and that was basically it. Ah well. Played enough golf over the past week anyway :p
 
Gross 79 for 72 today

Solid golf but lost a ball off the 1st (double), poor tee shot on 6th (double), poor tee shot on 10th (double)..... So 6 shots gone there.

Nice birdie on 7th (tramline a 40/45ft putt). Solid golf, better than last few weeks. Just a couple of stray ones cost me badly today.
 
Was dreading this morning's medal and set of hitting my drive into the bit of a ditch in front of the t box..Great start got a double bogey which I was ok with considering the start.
We have a t shirt from the top of the rock and it's got quite tight out of bounds on the right. I always end up there so God knows why I didn't just use an iron because I obviously hit the first out of bounds... Managed to finish the hole with a double bogey.
Then the round was ok until a par 5 where my t shot went into the light rough but we couldn't find it, walk back to the t and hit one just in front again... Scramble away for a 9.
Back to normal after that and on the last I 3 putt with 2 of them lipping out.
Overall happy with my round as I was 43 out and aside the 9 wasn't to bad back with 51. Puts me one under net par with handicap and joint 2nd (with 4 others)
Lessons learnt - if in doubt just hit a 7iron of the t and keep it in play
 
Shot a 79 (nett 74 - par 72) today, but could easily have been a 73 at worst with the shots I left out there

Had a couple doubles on the front that at worst should have been bogeys, and a couple 3 putt bogeys that between them all cosy me a good 4 shots overall

Pulled it together on the back, but a lost ball OB off the tee on the par 5 14th saw me finish with a double bogey (made a par with the second ball) which was the only hole where I didn't make a par

+5 front
+2 back
2 birdies

I did finish 4th out of the 21 who played from the group today, so got my money back and more, so not a bad day overall
