    Default What did you shoot: January 2018

    Snuck out for a hit with DC at Pacific. After continuing my run of crap golf for the first few holes something clicked and things started working. 32 Points, with 19 on the back. Easily my best run around there even with pretty poor putting. Good to start the year with a hint of some golf in there.

    Hopefully I can manage to play Friday, in the back marker, for something fun.

    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

    31 points. Greens are slow as all hell as we are on a skeleton staff, and with the NSW Amateur being held there at the end of this month, being protected from the heat for a few more weeks.

    Its ok. I bought another putter yesterday. That will fix everything.

    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

    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

    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.

    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...&#128547

    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.

    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

    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

    Thats good going, He used to use one shaped like a d which i think was a snake eyes and the head length would be 6 inch's easy and id say his cure is about the same size.
