For the second game in a row I started like a pig and finished half decent yesterday.
I really need to concentrate from the gun.
13/20–33pts

For the second game in a row, I am quoting Bushy's post and saying I did the same thing.
I had an honest 36 points, but a 15/21 split.
I hit the ball well on the first nine, but had a bunker disaster and some poor chips from easy positions. Then hit the ball poorly on the second nine and chipped and putted like a pro. One over for the nine, while hitting two GIR. It is a strange game.

Jim the positive that I have taken is the game is obviously there, I just need to concentrate and be a bit more present. I’ve fought my swing since June but it’s coming around.

Par comp at Beaconhills today , had +4 ( +3/+1) but was actually 74 ots and 41 pts , the 74 is a pb for me at Beaconhills, although it was off the whites . No wipes only one 1 pointer, however, there is still room for improvement as I did have a 3 putt ( birdie putt from 3 mts) ,I bladed a chip that caused one of my bogies and i missed two short ( 2 to 3 mts) birdie putts plus a very short par putt . On the positive I did sink a some good putts and drove the ball well

Major Winner
First round of the year after 6weeks off working. Maryborough GC - 36pts. First time I have played to handicap since early September.
Nothing really terrible in the round except a cold top on 1, and a pulled drive on 18. Chipping was rusty, as was putting (34putts). No 3 putts though.
Had a bit of a change in the bag - Honma 727 2h/3h and ping ie1 irons both performed well, so was happy with that.
18/18 - 36
6/13 fir
6 GIR
34 putts

Played 9 holes with my son around Beacon hills front today.I wasn't really taking much notice of my score as I was trying to help him mostly.He is almost 21 and has only played a handful of games,so would be good if he caught the bug,even just a little.Anyway I was just sitting at the dining room table looking at the stats.
6 of 7 fairways hit
7 greens in reg
19 putts( f... s...😣
39 off the stick

That's a great effort.If I could find my confidence with the putter,then I would like to think I could keep my putts per hole down to about 1.8

He is one of the best putters I have ever played with, use's massive putters since I have known him, uses a Cure one at the moment.

Best I have seen is 7 putts for 9 holes , He was just superb around the greens , had to be because of physical problems he couldn’t hit the ball far .I use a putter by powerbuilt , head is shaped like a D

Lesson or new putter that is the dilemma I think .I chose lesson , am now averaging around 29 putts (1.6 per hole) and is a big reason for my good form of late

Thursday stableford comp , 30 pts , pretty crap and frustrating day . One of the other guys in the group turned 71 today had 45 points , a par on the last would have given him a 71 ots unfortunately he had a double bogey and his only one pointer for the day .

Played Beacon Hills first the first time yesterday.....nice course. Hit it really well but could not get near the hole. Thanks to Andy for the invite...31 points off 9 but I don't think the score did justice to how well I hit it. Would love to go back when the greens are rolling faster...good to start the new year off hitting it well...medal day at Riversdale has been canned Saturday due to the heat but looking forward to seeing what I can manage....

Sounds like my round hit the ball well but only managed 15 pts each side . Come back in a month or two around club champs you will see different greens .Suspect they are a bit longer and wetter at moment because of the expected hot weather. Were you with Andy and mark ? Was a couple of holes ahead of you . Temp at beacy will be cooler than the city so they are still expecting to play . I play most Tuesdays , thursdays happy to host you if you want another game .
