Week comencing 29th January

I won! I won! First post anyways.

Since wynnum is only 1.5 weeks away I thought I might need some practice.

9 holes, 5 over par. Happy enough with the score. Telling stats - 0/6 fairways, 1/9 GIR. This is the sort of play that could really peeve a matchplay opponent; if of course they aren't beating you

[Grunt]

Played Kooindah Waters this afternoon, pretty good round
88 Gross
70 Nett (2 Under)
6 Fairways
32 putts
2 GIR
4/6 Up & Downs
0/6 Sand Saves

Was a weird round for the first time in ages I just jotted the score on the card and went to the next tee. After 9 I never added it up and did not actually add the score up until I got home. I was surprised I did not feel I played that well, but 2 under nett is great

Nice work Grunt and Goughy.

Grunt, sometimes it's less of a stress not knowing whether you're over or under the card.

Goughy, you either putted well, or chipped well. You're right, missing greens and getting up and down easily really peeves your opponent. (That means you DC68!)

Played on Monday at a work day, 2 man ambrose at Caboolture. Played very well, very solid just about everywhere. My partner and I ended up with a 62 off the stick (57 1/4 nett), with 1 bogie. Still left a couple of shots out there though!! We just happened to make quite a few putts and a chip in.

Course was in good nick, greens played quite true and fairways were nice.

[BrisVegas]

Nice going Iain! Ambrose's are all about making putts eh.

Wow! A compliment followed by a swipe. Nasty!

Congrats Grunt. I would have thought you would have it a lot lower by now though.......

Thanks AndyP
It would have been if it not for the period where I could barely hit the ball. I consistently played games where I parred/birdied holes then lost the plot totally and could barely hit it.

...and it flies right over his head, like the 737's he services, or else he knows how to play a very very very straight bat.

[AndyP]

Thanks just. I didn't think it was that subtle.

How's your game going BTW? Still sticking to the range mostly?

I don't work on Bug Smashers 767 or bigger!!!

[Grunt]

I knew what you were on about I just decided to ignore it and tell you a little story.

It's awful, thanks for asking. I had a great game at the Cut before Xmas where I scored 18 over par from the tips and since then everything has gone downhill. I am hitting everything left as a standard shot and I can't hit anything off the tee. I am going to start lessons again soon with someone Jarro has recommended at Nudgee. But it gets me out of the house so its all good. I will be trying to play and get lessons at least every fortnight this year in the hopes of improving.

Just, Gary is based at the range almost exclusively now ... you shouldn't have much trouble finding him

Good luck

I guess it shows I hit it like a 17 marker hey

[Grunt]

LOL I guess so.

Counting to 3?!

Meddal and rnd 2 of the Summer Cup. Played OK, had 101 for 74 nett, nett 147 for the summer cup, and probably not good enough to qualify for matchplay.

9/14 fairways, 3 GIR and 2 birdies (First in comp at Reddy for me). But my bad holes today were bad. Including 2 strokes for playing the wrong ball and a couple of water hazard penaties. Shining light was putting the 3 wood to 20cm on the 13th, which will hopefully win NTP and the club pin.

[Grunt]

Played Medal this morning and played well for all bar 3 holes
92 Gross
75 Nett
8 Fairways
2 GIR
32 putts
2/8 Up & downs
0/2 Sand Saves
2 penalty shots
2 pars
1 Birdie.

Hopefully the bad shots were all played today. I felt like I shot 150.

[BrisVegas]

Single Stab at Brookwater, tees were back to normal and back near the plates on a few holes.

80 gross for 35 points.
9 fairways
9 GIR
33 putts

I was battling the straight left pull shot, despite hitting the ball ok. New irons were solid, no surprises there thankfully. Fairways and greens were aggressively cored on Monday and were still pretty average. Greens were pretty fuzzy and I left a lot of putts short. Hopefully it's better next Saturday.
