    A few more sculled chips and crap pitches with pos vokey saw a rough 8 over cap nett 78.

    Lessons learned:
    1. Dont forget your sw
    2. Never touch a vokey again
    Excuses excuses

    Probably grabbed the Vokey as you're now a single figure player and worthy enough to use one.

    Was ridiculous, Matty vdk teed off on the second and couldn’t see it land ,rain was so bad , he was playing well and wouldn’t call it off , so I told him, after belting a downhill putt on 4 and it still pulled up well short , that I wasn’t going any further , I was wet and frozen it was slippery, if he wanted to win that badly he could have it as far as I was concerned.

    35pts with a wipe. I also made what is probably my longest putt ever.... conservatively 30m (for birdie).

    27 points with some frankly poor ball striking and missing some very short putts. Just struggling for tempo with the reduced amount of practice time available currently. On the positive my chipping was not the embarrassment it usually is.

    38 points for me today in absolutely perfect golfing weather (now that it seems to be compulsory to offer a weather report with the golf report).

    I played really well with the long clubs. The irons let me down a bit, but I was still within 5 metres of every green in reg.

    38 isn't really a boasting score, but it is my best round of the 23 that are visible in my golflink, dating back to October last year, so I'm very happy.

    19/07/2019, Eustondale GC (9 Holes), Social with Goughy.

    Low quality golf played by me to match the low quality course. With pull-hooks off the tee, an ordinary short game (from ordinary lies), and putting that couldn't adjust, it seemed that the only shot I could play was a low iron off a tee. I could blame the course, or the layers of clothing worn, or the company kept, but it just was one of those days where things felt a bit off.

    Lowlight: The big pull-hooks with the usually reliable 3W, and not recovering from either tee shot.
    Highlight: Birdie on the short uphill par 3 6th. 9I pin high and rolled the putt in.

    17% fairway, 33% GIR, 19 putts, 17% scrambling.
    1 birdie, 2 pars, 3 bogeys, and 3 others.
    Scoring: BXBPbXPXB - 42 (+9)

    Weather reports are only necessary if you play bad and need an excuse.

    In that case, no weather report is necessary for my game yesterday, as I drove the ball really well and 'only' scored 35 points.

    I'd like to blame the weather for recording bogeys at my last five holes, all from the middle of the fairway, when all I needed was one par to achieve the number one goal of playing to handicap. I was disappointed at the time, but on reflection I didn't really play well enough for a par score.
