saturday at Willunga

1st serious hit since mid november and gee whizz :oops: it was ordinary.
just couldnt get anything going at all. :?
took an iron on the par 5 - 4th - and its one that has been draw/hooking - and it went dead straight - straight over the bushes and bike track :lol:
lost a ball that played pinball with the trees, should have easily spotted it, but again - just keep walking.
a few holes i was able to tee off while the others were putting out :lol:
ended up losing 3 balls i think, but 2 of them were the old but new intech balls i got from an auction years ago. if im gonna be this bad, i might just have to keep using them :lol: :lol:

Flat, wide fairways, nice but not over challenging (unless the winds up)
Of the other two down there, Victor is a good course & I really rate McCracken.

South lakes probably the cheapest down south.

I havent been to Victor in donkeys but i think MatteeG gave it a good review.
And McCracken is always a pleasant stroll

Got to Blackwood for a twilight round, never seen the course in better nick, in fact it wouldn't be far off a number of the top private courses in the western suburbs. Immaculate, the fairways are perfect and for a hills course its actually pretty flat. If you haven't been there for a while check it out.

Always enjoyed Blackwood. Like all clubs they had a good increase in membership during Covid.

Whats the next course on your twilight tour?

Nice track Blackwood. The private course I played in Melbourne, Rosanna, reminded me very much of Blackwood.

I'm back to sunny Adelaide next weekend, and am looking forward to a hit with my lad, and a few of his mates. They have been playing a fair bit of golf recently, and by the sounds of it, all have improved. My lad shoots mid 90's most weeks now.

I anticipate an epic battle, as I have no doubt, son wants to beat me...... bring it on!

Sounds like Royal Oakbank is the venue of choice.
