Daily Golf - Where you are playing and how you go

Nice job.

First 9 I got plenty of halves.
And finished there at -1

Back 9 for the most part was disappointing.

My old 7 iron is longer than the new one....

Next week one of the lads booked us in for 8-30 off the first
Much prefer opening up on a longer hole than the par 3

Another month lay off for me, off to Thailand tomorrow.

Couldn't believe how well I went!

79 off the stick for +4

Started with a Birdie 2 for a plus and more than likely closest to pin, didn't get a minus till the 8th with a 6 on the par 4 index 1. Only got 1 other minus and that was the 18th missed a 3 foot putt for the half index 18

Overall very happy with 6 pluses, 2 minus and 10 halfs. I'd take that when playing every week let alone not playing for nearly 2 months.

Come in exactly a full point on my handicap pricks!

The good part is in my last 20 rounds 18,19 and 20 are all flagged rounds. So they'll drop off. Depending on how my next 3 rounds go.

[mighty_tiger_79]

My adjusted score came in at 98
Down .3 and into 21.7
Slowly but surely on track to get on the tour...

39pts today at Mount Barker (it's good to be back home) shared the afternoon "pool" with a young lad... Few beers and old mates... Gold!

[mighty_tiger_79]

Looking to get a round in tomorrow arvo, hoping it's 18 but if it's 9 I'll take it.
Depending on times may even get into the 9 hole twilight comp

[mighty_tiger_79]

Had a 50 on the front 9 yesterday

And what a cracking morning it is for me to put up 40+ pts

[mighty_tiger_79]

Lose a ball on the first hole from the tee shot, problem is it wasn't a bad slice or anything, looked to be just on the tree line.
Another lost ball on the 4th, again just in the tree line.
27pts
One of the lads in the group had a 42pts with a scrub....puts card through, some bloke on same handicap 23, had 47pts...

Playing the open day at Glenelg on Monday. Hopefully things go as well as they did at twilight on Wednesday night... 24 points for 9 holes including a scrub

[mighty_tiger_79]

Good luck Mickey


My next round will be Friday for a golf day with some clients, who invited me along at North Adelaide.

Been told everyone will be going home with basically 2 bottles of wine at a minimum

Another hit today down at Murray Bridge (last for a while) could only muster 30pts. Hit a few good shots, but mixed it with some fair shyte..... May have to go back to cricket at this rate!

Echunga yesterday morning, first hit for a couple of months.

Started well, parred the first. Then went on a bogey fest. Chipping and approaches appalling.

Climaxed* on the 8th with a 10m tee shot, which was lucky not to be an airy (and doubly lucky we were off the social tees so it didnt event count as a fanny!).

Regrouped with a couple of pars early on the back 9 before the weather hit- sideways rain and galeforce winds). Good times.

Battled though with 28 points. Actually not too disappointed considering the lack of game time recently and the conditions.

Good- driving (bar the previously mentioned one), long /mid irons, putting.

Bad- approach shots, chipping.

Have a couple more games in this year's programme which I should get to. May put some time in at the range too.

Par on the 1st @ Royal Echunga is always a good score. With such small greens there, you do a lot of chipping, so if that part of your game is off. scoring can be difficult. I always found the back 9 a fair bit easier than the front.

How were the greens??? They were cored a few weeks ago, are they coming back??

Yeah. No obvious core holes anymore, but still a bit sandy and slow. Couple more weeks they should be shmick.

[mighty_tiger_79]

Manages to hit a few balls at the range the last 2 days, really got the ball working nicely right to left.....now to implement it when it matters....
Picked up some shoes also to help make the walk more enjoyable

[Corona Man]

30 pts today... Looks like you were correct MT79... Still I'm happy with the coin!

[mighty_tiger_79]

Just had a golf day at North Adelaide
What a super day for it.
Had a drinks cart and lunch provided afterwards which was delish.

Team ended up 2nd.

Now onto monthly medal tomorrow

[mighty_tiger_79]

Every player won a prize and picked up 3 bottles from ghost wines
