What did you shoot this week - August 2016

[Hatchman]

86/73 in the monthly mug today.

48/38

Stupid front nine!

First round of the City of Cairns yesterday. Quick greens made for fun and games. 94 net 80 (par 72). Started with 2 straight pars and finished with two pars. The rest in between was rubbish.

A bit of overnight rain took some sting out of the CoC. 85 net 71. Played the first nine 3 shots more than handicap and managed to right the ship and play the back nine 4 shots less than handicap.

Who nows what the final round will bring.

73/70 in monthly medal had 3 over the front nine with a missed birdie putt from a foot and had 1 under on the back with 4 birdies in a row.

I won my 1st Monthly Medal yesterday 66 scr net 68 DSR was 74 was also a PB at my course Sanctuary Lakes

Final round of the City of Cairns in miserable drizzly conditions for the most past. Thankfully it was drizzle and not full on rain and it eased up on the back nine. The afternoon field looks like they'll jag the finer conditions as it has cleared up now. 83 net 69 (39 points equivalent). Quite content with how I hit ball given the conditions. Two 3 putts (greens are still quite slick) but no lost balls. I'm happy.

Stableford scores for these for the monthly mug would be much appreciated. Thanks

A previous club of mine called it a monthly mug , you won a pewter mug and each member was expected to fill it up once in the month for the winner .
I have never seen the origins of the medal anywhere , its a monthly competition, maybe its just assumed that its stroke because most clubs play it as their stroke round for the month . I don't mind it being par in winter , I have lost an event because it was too dark on the 18 th , as long as its off the back markers and pins in difficult spots , having said all that I prefer it being stroke given no weather factors.

It's a good idea to do it but you wouldn't call a stroke round stableford just because it's played on a usual stableford day.

[Jarro]

31 points.

I had 1 point for the first 4 holes and thought about walking off...driver was everywhere and i had zero touch around the greens.

Company was good though.

Well, Gross one week and damn close to NAGA this week.

I don't remember playing this bad since I was on 20 HC.

Not going to give too much away but I didn't have raise the bat on the 18th .....considering I only had 2 pars the entire day....yep it was that bad.

I hit 4 fairways, and of those 4..3 where in deep divots. The final being on the last hole...and I nearly snapped. The worst is I didn't think I was hitting the ball bad. Just got shite bounces, shite luck and nothing fell.....was a loooong day.

Slothman's a naughty boy for trying to hide the result.

Who was hiding....I just didn't want to look at golflink to see how bad the result was....trying to forget that bastad of a day completely

The 19 points was injury reduced, but was still hitting the ball well. Last weekend...was ...just...shite. Its been a LONG time since I had a 10 on a hole

[Peppas]

Slothy you won't win... I have a lower score to report, but I'll wait until after nsw champs to report it as he is giving me a lift there and back

tuesday comp at warragul, 19/16 35 pts , two 3 putts one each side , no wipes , four one pointers ,three 3 pointers. drove the ball fairly well putting wasnt great just couldn't get anything to drop except for a couple of par saves from about 2-3 mts am sure someone was putting glad wrap over the hole

[highballin]

33pts today. Started with a triple finished with a double. After 4 holes had 3pts & 3 of those holes I had a stroke on.

27putts 1x3 putt

Putting has improved a mile, ball striking meanwhile .....

[Courty]

1st round in about 5 weeks and it showed. Smother pulls all day. 26pts.

[Matt 3 Jab]

Easily the best round for the last few months. -4 in a par event.

Nice to have some calmer conditions out there. Poor finish cost me a decent round from the 12th onwards I didn't hit a green reg until the 18th.

Learning the course each time and starting to be more aggressive with my lines.

33 putts with no 3 jacks was nice.

beaconhills stableford today , 19/18 37 pts , had three 3 pointers in first 5 holes and another stop on the lip , then wiped the 9 th from the middle of the fairway with a 9 iron for second shot , three 1 pointers and three 3 pointers in back nine . drove the ball fairly well , irons were mostly better , chipping was ordinary putting was pretty good (no 3 putts) . Dsr was 72 (par 71 ) so had .6 chopped off cap , am down to 8.0 (GA) , got down to 7.9 in summer so happy to be dragging it down at this time of year , although I have to give a bandit another shot in matchplay knockout on saturday . 7.4 is my lowest ever ( 32 yrs ago ) have all my flags in last 12 or so cards so have a free run at it for a while might be able to set a PB .
