WDYSTM - December 2019

[benno_r]

Stableford at the Mary today.

Played pretty good for 14 holes for 32points. Shame the 4 wipes ruined a decent round.

2 putt birdy on 5, and curling 15ft birdy on 7 were highlights. Hooking 2 OB on 6, and hooking one in the piss on 17 were lowlights.

17/15 32
2 birds
6 pars
6 gir
32 putts
1 3jig

Played Kooringal yesterday in absolutely howling wind and shot an 83 which turned out to be quite respectable. Out in 44 and home in 39. Really impressed with the course too, lovely condition and plenty of different challenges.

[jimandr]

A fairly respectable 33 points for me today on recently cored and sanded greens. Realistically, the greens probably cost me 2 shots, which isn't really anything to whinge about.

I did get another flag-in rejection of a putt, but it was about a 40 footer and going fairly quick, so it may not have gone in anyway.

[Kriso]

39 with some really good up and downs officially back into the 6's.

[Grumpy8]

Tuesday bit of wind around , 23 pts , seem to loose the plot every time the wind gets up .
Thursday 32 pts , windy but not as bad as Tuesday, 20 pts front nine with a wipe and one pointer , missed a 6 footer on the sixth for 3 birds in a row then 3 putted 7 for a wipe . Back nine I think I might have got on the tractor subconsciously, lots of one pointers and a wipe ( a daily cap of 8 is nice at Warragul) . 42 pts won both grades

[Bigbad]

Had 32 points. Drove the ball pretty well, and actually hit some decent irons but didn't convert. A big thing I noticed today was I was mis-clubbing a bit. Like hit the shot well, but ended up short a few times and long a couple. So that put me off the green trying to get up and down and I just wasn't doing it. Frustrating day.

[Grumpy8]

MM at Warragul, 76/68 , filthy with myself, went 35/41 ,2 birds 1 bogey front nine , driving went off back nine was even par after 13 which had me on track for the medal , then went bogey, bogey, bogey, double b , par , am not happy

[Hatchman]

New worst round for the year only exactly 1 week after what was worst round for the year.
Good thing I drove it good and putting wasn’t as bad as it was a week ago or it would have been real ugly.
Next 4 rounds are flags with with a large differential between the replacement rounds.

[3Puttpete]

First hit for 5 weeks. 27 quality points.

Good prep....

[NewyMitch]

35 points for first comp in 2 months.

19/16 with no wipes. Only downer was misplacing my lob wedge somewhere between the 10th and 11th and having to use my 54 for the rest of the holes. Thankfully I got it back after the round.

[okitoki]

Yeap ..... another crappy weekend... 94/80 for monthly stroke on saturday while 4 down on par comp on Sunday.

Chippings were mostly ok but my putting was off on saturday while iron play is off on sunday.

Cant get it together again :P

[Dcanto]

36 points at Mirage Country Club having a hit with my brother before Christmas. Played well in patches but two wipes undid the good play. Still it's my best round in a while so I won't complain.

[Wenz]

31 around RA
Very hot round yesterday, our whole group literally crawled home from 13

[jimandr]

28 points for me today. 38 putts and my first drive OOB for at least 3 years. I'm blaming the yellow ball I used (until I hit it OOB).

[Kriso]

36 with a wipe today, driver let me down a little getting blocked out on a few holes.

[backintheswing]

[Grumpy8]

31 and 34 this week , two wipes in the 34 , struggling with pace of the greens , actually lack of pace

[Hard_Pan]

51.75 net in the Xmas Ambrose at Royal North Haven on the weekend for the win. 1 eagle, 7 birdies and 1 bogie.

34 points for me today. But due to circumstances, this was one of the best 34's I've ever recorded.

I have a back muscle strain. I can't backswing more than about chest height. I only played so I could enjoy Xmas drinks after the round, and expected to be picking up after a few holes, but I found that if I swung back slowly and had a Matsuyama pause I could still bunt the ball a reasonable distance. 100 metres in was the real problem, as I couldn't do full swings with short irons, so I had to try and play 100m bump and runs with 6 or 7 iron. i can usually play this type of shot from under a tree, but it's a different challenge to do it deliberately from the middle of the fairway.

Anyway, for the most part it was successful and I hit a couple of great shots. Had I been able to putt well on very slow greens I may actually have broken handicap.

Now that the round is over, on reflection this was great fun in the same way that a 5 club challenge can be.

[BUSHY]

Woosaaahh!!!!

Finally. Shot 72 today on the white course at Cairns (+1) to finish at plus 5 in a game of par.

Three birds and four bogies but it was great to be back hitting some flush. Played the odds today -9 sticks in the bag.

First time in months I haven’t lost the match to pay for drinks or the ticket.

Was tracking along well and fell apart on the last 4 holes, scored just 3 points from 15 onwards

36 in the inaugural SA Champs’ interstate shootout with BYU. I only managed 31, letting my state down. A few too many bad holes.

[WBennett]

37 last weekend and won the golden shot of about forty bucks as it went off the day before.Today was 39 points, 3rd overall, and a five buck voucher as we were one entry short for three prizes per grade.Golf is a lot more fun when you are not totally shit

I know it doesn’t actually count but I backed it up today with another 72 (+1) off the social tees.

Four bogies
A birdie
An eagle on the last

We played as a 6-ball and it was awesome.

Merry Xmas bro!

[okitoki]

Had 2 days of semi decent golf. Hitting the g410 driver well after adding more weights to it (14g to 20g)

Irons are ok but can seem to string 2 9s on the same day.

It was 16 20 for 36 on Sunday
And 20 15 for 35 yesterday.

Played off 13 hdcp

[BUSHY]

Merry Xmas bro!

We’ve only got Blue (members) and Yellow (social) tees. The white tees are a different course. Aside from the red that is.

Merry Xmas to you too mate.

[chappy1970]

35 points today in near perfect conditions.

I'd typically be disappointed, but considering how horrendous i was off the tee today, only hit 4 fairways, I'm quite happy

[WBennett]

Out in the Riverina today, off 9 at Leeton. The course is irrigated, so the fairways hold up a little bit, but the rough is rock hard and the ball doesn't stop until it hits a tree or some other crap.

Found fairways early and scored well, then struggled off the tee around the middle before coming home strong.

Only 8 fairways, missed a lot of greens by a metre of two, putted well until the end when I left a 30 footer for birdie 1 roll short, a downhill 6 footer for eagle a simple short, and a 20 footer for par on 18 a roll short.

2 birds, 40 points, and a PB for the course of 77.

Might win a ball 😂

Another tale of 2 9s. Had 21 points off the first 9 and ended the 2nd with 17 points. Playing off 12 today.

Handicap has drop 2 strokes within 2 weeks.

Not sure if it will drop anymore before end of the year.

Highlight of the day was my playing partner had a hole in 1

Played in the Stableford comp at Maryborough today. Not going into too much detail, but shot even par on the front, then +10 on the back. Never have I felt like I got every bit of luck on the front, and absolutely nothing on the back. It's times like this I am glad I don't drink.

[Dcanto]

You have it backwards. Rounds like that make me glad I do drink. Amen.

[NewyMitch]

Had my lowest ever round with a Stableford score of 40 which was 78 off the stick (par 70). It was 20 points each 9 but achieved very different ways. The front was 2 birdies and 2 doubles with a balance of pars and bogeys. The back nine was 3 bogeys and 6 pars.

I had some very good luck hitting the pin from the bunker on the 16th. It would have gone a long way past the green if it hadn't.

[BUSHY]

79 for 35 points. Considering I hit some tee balls all over the map it was really quite good. Two or three birdies putts just didn’t drop but it was a solid day.

[JoeS]

First round for a month.Hit it ok,just lacked a bit of control.
16/16 for 32.

Last round of the year, Courty and I snuck out at 05:30 for a game and it was an awesome morning for it. Surprisingly toasty even after the 1st or 2nd hole. We ripped round in 2hrs 47mins and enjoyed a couple of icy beverages in the AC of the clubhouse before heading home all before 09:30.

Played evens this morning, D, 4w, 3i, 468P, 54, P

2 birdies
1 double
1 bogey

Have a happy new year everyone. All the best for 2020.
