Played Cabramatta with Matty and 2 other mates. Matty had the best score of the day 35points off 4 to get me by 4 on my home track. My mates had 32 and 33.
So my 31 points of 4, started with double, bogey, bogey and double in the first 4 holes (6 over). Lots of rust and threw away some shots on the greens and in the bunkers. Also missed a green with a wedge in my hands on 2 separate occasions. I only had 1 x 1 Putt greens and 35 putts overall, but didn't feel like I putted poorly. The wedge play and chipping was average at best and barely hit it inside 15feet all day.
Positives, played the rest of the way at 3 over the rest of the way, including playing the par 5's in 2 under. Best shot of the day for me was a cut 3 wood from about 230m onto the par 5 6th hole to about 15 feet. I missed the eagle, but tapped in for birdie. Matty's best hole came on the par 5 11th where he ripped driver to the corner of the dogleg and then hit a nice "little controlled" 7 iron from about 165m to about 6 feet. He just missed the putt, but did tap in for birdie.
Very enjoyable day and very much looking forward to catching up with the ozgolfers this Sunday at Cabramatta for our monthly get together.
