Not to bad today,had a 32 point round.You may think not so good,but the lakes 9 had been heavy cored and sanded yesterday and was like putting at the beach.14 points on the first 9 and 18 on the hills front 9.Flag comes off in the next round so my 7.6 GA may not last to much longer

34 pts yesterday, getting frustrated, was +6 on shot holes , cap is 7 , parred first four holes ( 3 shots) parred last 3 holes (2 shots) -6 on no shot holes , 6 halves ( 1 shot) , found a few different ways to stuff holes up , short siding , 3 putts , lip outs , ordinary chipping . Although I am not going below 30 pts am not having the good 40+ round either

Feeling your pain.My short game from inside 25m is on song,makes up for some of the other mistakes.My problem is the second shot,missing greens short side,or leaving long putts above the hole.I caught the humps on 1 and 3 yesterday,otherwise they were perfect

Wed Stableford @ Maryborough.
Started well with a chip in bird on 10. Pretty steady until I chipped in again for birdie on 16. Turned with 23 pts (+1 off the waz).
Wind picked up on front 9, basically punted out 2 pointers until I knocked in close on 6 and nailed an easy birdy. Backlash hit hard on 7, plugging it deep in the front bunker. Couldn't get it out and in so hit a disappointing wipe. 2 more 2 pointers, saw 16 on the front.
F9 delivered again, only missing 1 fairway. Chipping was great, putting pretty good.

01/10/2019, North Stradbroke Island Golf Club, Social 9 Holes.
Yesterday, I played with my youngest around Straddie Golf Club. I had a hire set, except I took my own putter and wedge, in the hope that it would save me a few shots. The hire set was tough to use, especially the driver where I could only get a massive slice with. With the combination of the clubs, sandy fairways (sand island), and thick greens, I was never going to score well. And I couldn't get up and down with my own clubs anyway.
Score: 44 (+9) with 2 pars, 7 bogeys, 2 doubles.

After winning last months Midweek Medal, then cleaning up the 4BBB, I should have felt good going into yesterdays Midweek Medal round.
I didn't. I'd slept poorly, was flat out at work, and in the wrong mindset when I arrived.
Found 4 bunkers in 4 holes, ran out of handicap on the 7th.
5 lipouts in the first 11 holes summed up my day. I ran out of enthusiasm about then.
Only highlight was a NTP - which paid $30. Of course I missed the putt.
Club champs coming up, off 7.3 with one round to play before them - and I would need 39 points to get down to a daily of 8.
I just need to learn how to chip, pitch and drive between now and then.

Sounds like you need to buy a new putter

Fri Stableford @ Maryborough.
Playing off a daily of 9 for the first time in a while. Started well - 3 pars, followed by birdies on 4 and 5. Pars on 6 and 7 were followed by slack bogies on 8 and 9 to turn with 22pts (even off the stick).
Stayed on the bogey train with a slack bogey on 10, followed by pars on 11,12,13,14. Knocked in an easy bird on 15, followed by by a par on 16 to be square off the stick through 16. Wind had picked up for the hard 17 and 18, went close to parring both, but just left myself a little too much for both par putts.
Once again, the F9 delivered, only missing 1 fairway (by 2ft). Chipping was great, putting pretty good. Super stoked to score my lowest ever round of 72 (+2).

On fire, Benno. You seem to having a good number of birdies at the moment too.

Agreed, normally I struggle to make 1 every 2 rounds. I think it's coming from keeping the ball in play off the tee. Hit 10 greens, of those I had 5 realistic looks, and made 3.

Not sure - probably since we didn't play comp, it didn't want to come out and play.

Getting birdies with 40m chip and runs is marginally harder, so this seems like a good strategy.

38 points this morning at Windsor (18/20). Front 9 was full of on and off showers, but cleared up a bit on the back.
Short game kept me in it today and I scrambled well when I needed to. A couple of new additions to the bag went well (tour issue SFTP 2.0 driver and V Steel 5 wood), but my TEE CB4 3 wood not quite as well.
All in all though very pleased with how the round went.

Good result with 2 wipes!
I played Stableford again at Maryborough. Tonsillitis caught up with me, and started poorly. Really struggled on, and around the greens. Generally pretty poor until 14, where lipped a long birdy putt, and picked up birdies on 2 of the harder holes - 16 and 18.

MM today , 78 nett 71 ,36 pts , won’t bore you with details about 8 wasted shots , will tell you putter is in the pro shop being fixed , turns out cartwheeling them 20 mts back towards your bag isn’t all that good for them .
