Let us know how you went this week...

[Fishman Dan]

Still broken... this weekend out, maybe next weekend? [-o<


Sacked the old physio, went for a second opinion somewhere a block from work. He had new thoughts on some of the pain (sore and stiff hip) and we worked on that area and it's improved out of sight. Still soreness in the lower-back though...

I played yesterday afternoon in the semi-final of the Club Championships Matchplay. I won my match 3/1 and will now be playing in the Final on the 25th. I worked out I would have had 80 or 81 if it was strokeplay. Was 3 over after 8 and doubled the 9th to finish 5 over, but 2 up in the match. Went around the 2nd 9 in 4 over. Highlight was seeing my opposition hit the par 5 12th in two, but still having the balls to lay up, hit a knockdown wedge to 6ft and make the birdie putt, then watch him 3 putt .
I also picked up a Demo R7 to try out on Saturday arve.

Gotta love that courty. I remember doing that exact same thing to a fella when i was a kid - but on two par 5's in a row! and the first one was an up and down with a 3 wood from the scrub followed by a mighty long putt.

I guess he wouldnt have minded so much, but I did hit a 3W to a couple of inches the hole before, and then an up and down with a Driver 3 holes previous. I think what really rattled him was when I chipped in for a birdie, and he missed a 3 foot eagle putt.

Good first post Craig...welcome and post all you want mate

[goughy]

Hi claydog,

If you like bunkers, missing greens and hitting it into the rought then you're in good company here. My last game was 93, with 1 gir and 39 putts. And someone told me table tennis is hard (vincent price laugh)

[claydog]

Thanks guy's,
look foward to many more posts.But it's time for me to go to work now gotta love nightshift.till next time

[McMw]

78 with some dodgy shots thrown in and out...

[Anonymous]

had a 97 at Gailes with Macca - that was 10 strokes better than a week ago - [an Ugly 107 at Nudgee] - so at that rate I should be on track for a good round at the Scramble next week ! - as for Macca can someone please buy his wedges off him - he would have shot an 80 if he stopped hitting wedges !!!

What's the deal with these separate threads?

I thought the other way worked fine.

[jaster]

Just a trial ANdyp..don't get your nose out of joint I have had a few comments that posts are getting lost too quickly in the other thread..that's all.

OK, we'll see how it goes.
May I suggest that monthly may be more appropriate at this time.

I thought the topic on the main page was fine

[AndyP]

I believe that they are meant to replace the old mega-thread.

[3oneday]

This would make it easier when trawling, ie at least you have a date to start looking for, anyway, I rarely post in these because I PLAY CRAP !!!!!!!!!!!! mind u, I'm pumped again for this weekend

[Fishman Dan]

I'm just glad to see they obviously haven't settled on a moderator yet

Yes, I believe they are trialling the role. I heard a rumour that the current moderator may get the sack after the recent avatar scandal.

[McMw]

yeh....had a good round just then....

funny thing was that I was playing the way I wanted to - BORING GOLF!!!

I was playing with the aussie, and after his bogey on the first, he went birdie/birdie/birdie, and I was already 2 strokes behind him after 4...WTF!!!

anyway...boring golf wins out, I finished 1over for the nine - damn stupid bogey on the 8th...
he finished 2 over...

the KID wasn't even in contention!!!

[Courty]

Played ind stab today. Only had 32pts. A few 3-putts but couldn't find a fairway with that damn R7. I had it set to High Neutral, but all I could hit was low hooks. Piece of *&^%! It's going straight back to Golf World on Monday.
