90 off the stick in round 2 today. Course was very wet and played preferred lies. Started on 10 and knifed the ball across the green twice with a chili dip in between for an 8 to start ... Thankfully I managed to grind out the rest of the day with 6 pars and 3 doubles. Putting was not great, I think I only dropped one longish one.
Unless there is a late score change, The bloke who was coming second beat me by 4 today so we are both on 179 after 2 rounds. Next is 6 or 7 shots back. Go C Grade! I think the same guy is beating me by 4 shots in net now, but really don't care about net
Edit - scores in:
C Grade – Gross
1. L Apolloni 179
2. P Davies 179
3. S Burns 186

Going well peteyD play to your cap next week and you will be right in it
Ahhhhhh. Up and down day but putted well considering the greens are getting really firm and fast.
A 2 putt birdie on my 3rd hole was cancelled out by 2 doubles and there were a couple of soft bogies on my front side that sucked.
After starting the back side well another double popped up but I managed to par the final 4 holes with 4 one-putts from some odd spots to grind out 35 points...lost another 0.3
Backing it up tomorrow for 36 holes in the Foursomes Championship with Courty who gets home from Europe at midnight tonight. Should be fun.

37 points, beat the cap so am happy.
A story of what could have been
Olinda Golf Club stableford.
Front 9 was a story,22 points,2 over the card off the stick.
Back 9,13 points 1 wipe and a story of near missed but in the end poor putting.
Finished with 35 points,84 off the stick.Could have been so much more
What has happened to everyone's favourite rosewood member?
It was a great fight back from a potentially disastrous start PD. It was very solid golf for the next 17 holes. If your putter had been even mildly warm, it could have been a very good round.
I finished like you started! But had to be happy with 17 super solid holes. Parring all the par 3 and all the 5s, till the last hole was very satisfying. As was my U & D out of the hazard on the 7th for par. In hindsight, my stumbles all came when I tried to hit the ball harder and further in the soggy conditions. I have to be a bit more patient and let my short game do the hard lifting. That is what worked for me most of the round.
I am currently running 3rd in A Grade Nett, 5th in A Grade Seniors Gross, and 2nd in A Grade Seniors Nett. I need a couple of steady rounds now to consolidate.
Come on Pedro and Daves. First comp round coming up today since Vic Champs Monday in pre for Pennants will update you all
If it aint for sale the right price has just not been offered
First comp round in about 9 months yesterday. 78 for 38 points. A few lucky par saves but also a heap of poor putting. Stoked to break 80 for the first time in over a year!
Stock shot is now a weak short fade but I kept it in play.
Foursomes Champs.
Rounds of 81/83 definitely not going to be good enough.
We did have 4 birdies though, just too many doubles and a triple.
82/68 today. Missed out on the win by count back to a scratch marker.
Really happy as this is the first time under my hcp for twelve months.
Once you go yellow, you will never go back
Social at Berwick Montuna today.Started with a pair of bogeys,6 pars in a row then lost my way.My short game is sh1t,my missed greens is horrendous and I am frustrated.Time for a new driver.
Had an 84 OTS

I got a preview of what golf will be like for me as a genuine senior today. 35 points doesn't sound like anything remarkable, but the conditions made it a really good score.
The course was a mudheap after lots of recent rain. The ball was going nowhere, so when I was smashing my drives a massive 170m I couldn't even think about reaching our long par 4's.
The walk was very hard work as well. I'm gonna need more handicap.
"There are 50 things to remember in the golf swing. Trouble is that I can only remember 49 of them" - Bob Hope.
Golf sucks. I have gone from 5.1 to 7.3ish in 3 months, and I am nowhere near playing to it either.
30 points feels like a win at the moment, and if the putt is between 2 and 6 foot, I am a snowballs chance in hell of holing it.
