Gained 0.6 with first game back with hcp. Tractor blew up on 2nd game back and first game at new home losing 0.6.

Pic above sums up the farming effort recently. Finally get the hcp out to double digits and looking forward to the continual drift out then go and mess it all up. Last 2 comp games at an old home club as a visitor have seen a 0.2 reduction each game #badfarming. Thankfully it still keeps me on double digits.
This getting one shot for more than half the holes goes alright.
Four weeks out from SA Champs with my highest handicap in 10 years. I'm booked in for an ambrose for Saturday.
I've got a few flags to come off before SA champs...
not really following the inference of the thread title, well i think i get it but I dont know who, and might end up being me
i have had 24 rounds in a row with handicap only going up.
only one handicap reduction in last 40 rounds.
this coincides with my home course re-opening, after beeing closed for about 18 months.
when course closed, hcap is 6.5
when course opened after wanderingg for a year 3.6
after 1 year playing exclusively at home 6.9
Obviously Helensvale is too hard.
Now that I think I'm in for the SA Champs, I can update my handicap story in preparation for some quality farming (or failure to do so).
Current GA is 7.1, but I have 3 no flag rounds in a row before the next flag appears. That day should be my first comp round in SA. I only need 34 points to record a flag round and reduce handicap, but if that isn't achieved I'm likely to go from 7.1 to 7.2.
So, not much to get excited about unless I have a good round. I'm playing Ok, but putting poorly, so it could happen. Either way, I seriously doubt that the red jacket will find itself around my shoulders.

You're doing it wrong, Jim.
My comp round from last weekend still hasn't gone in, despite two calls from me. Some problem with processing all of the visitor scores apparently. Rude! I need that extra 0.3 or so.
Drove in Pro Class today with a -7 in Par Comp.

Im 0.3 off my soft cap and have 3 flags dropping off in the next 4 rounds. Could be double bungers soon
i think i am going to start playing with a 7iron, Wedge and putter. Couldnt possibly have worse scores.
Next round is a flag
Might have to see if I can squeeze in another round before champs.
It would need to be at my home course as only 1 of my flags is at my home course
Was playing decent today until a thunderstorm rolled in, play was stopped and my group mutually decided to wipe the last 4 holes
28 points FTW, crank that tractor!
I think I'm doing it wrong. 40 pts today.
