    Default Anchored!!!

    Ok so it's taken me 22 games to go from my lowest handicap ever to being anchored (5 shots).....this has to be some sort of record!!

    You must really want a 'NSW Player of the Month' profile.
    Good luck at Kogarah.

    ps. I must work harder on this part of my game. I needed 50 games of crap and could only go out 3.9.

    nice - and I thought I was well on my way but that is nice form you are in.

    perhaps now is when we should play that round against each other!

    You wait, he'll be putting his name down as 'first reserve' for the champs before long

    Didn't they change the term from "anchored" to something else because there was enough bad juju with it?
    Forum needs more banter.

    Good thing they changed the anchor from 4 to 5. Could have done it in 20 rounds instead.

    Same term, as both are synonymous with lack of ability.

    Feeling your pain MrBluu
    I have been at my anchor for the last 8 rounds, I havent even looked close to playing to it, but pulled a +4 out of the bag in yesterdays Par event (blowing a gale and freezing in ACT) to drop one shot.

    Bah! That is nothing. I did the same thing in 15 rounds. I currently have no games in my best 8 under my anchored handicap.

    Being the optimist though, it will only take one good one to get back on track.
