Thought it might find be intersting to find out how you Guys went this weekend...

How did I go I hear you ask???
I shot the freaking lights out!
Had 41 pointsat Ranfurlie playing off 15, CCR was 74 and it was pretty windy, won the comp, the super comp, plenty of balls and all the cash. I hit the ball better than I have for a long time and still managed to miss a few putts, 3 putted 4,8 and 11 and missed short ones on 5 and 7 while birdies lipped out on 6 and 9. I did make up for by 1 putting the last 4 greens though so I was WRAPPED!
Now I have to remember exactly what I did last Friday night and repeat it agan this week, Haircut, Subway for dinner, A few Jack Daniels and a few beers, watch the Cricket, bed about midnight after stuffing around on the computer for a hour or so...
I really think the inspiration came from the people who use this forum...I love's ya's all!

It's a good feeling to win the day.
Well done judgemails.
I played pennants and went down on the 18th.

Now Judge, did you have a few Jack's in ya' when you wrote this :wink:

Well done, mate. It's a good feeling to play well on a tough day, & it's always a good feeling to win.

No Joe, just happy to finally get the chocolates..chalk up 1 for the Old farts, can't hear the young bucks singing their praises to lous at the moment!

Maybe see me next week after I drop 2 or 3 shots of the old handicap... 8O

I played at my local and the greens had just been renovated. Scarified last week then cored and heavily topdressed this week. A bit of rain thru the week and I swear the grass was 2 inches long. (which could open up a new thread about greens renovations. Is all this pain really worth it 2 or 3 times a year)

Got on the bogey train on the back nine and came in with 36 points. Considering the putting surfaces I was pretty happy, in fact I thought 38 would have given A Grade a shake.

I picked up the paper this morning to see that a 7 marker shot 45 points. 43 runner up.
I cannot possibly see how.

either every off line putt rolled back on line...or they played in a 2 and marked eachothers card.
Cored greens a a pain in the rear!

i just shot 82-76, ouch...pretty windy with greens running about 15 on the stimpmeter. a triple and 2 doubles in the 82, and the 76 included a triple bogey on 17th...great finish

Played in a 4BBBstroke with a 27 handicaper I was on the card 15 times but it was fun we ended up 3 over 75.I did the wrong thing by attacking every hole and it back fired on me.I had 2 net eagles to get us to that score.One good thing the wining score was only 61 so it was tough for every one 54 to 57 normally wins.
Poor bloke I was with crumbled if I had a poor shot he tried to pull a biggy out and ended up worst than me.I tired to let him go first and that didn't work either.
Just couldn't take a trick,but what the heck gained a new playing partner anyway

i didnt play today but i caddied in the final of the junior pennants. we won so we are up to div 1 next year

pair of 79s for me. yesterday (played with the pro) was considered a disaster...putted badly, drove badly etc etc...and still managed to play one under hcp.

today..my F@#$%ng goodness...what a way to start the comp round...parred the first, OOB on the second par 3 for a 6, OOB hook on the 3rd for a 6, double 7 on the 4th...and on and on...had two birds on the 5th and 7th, only to be followed by d.bogeys on the next holes...ARRAAGGHHH...

what was good about today was that I didn't crumble, and manged to play level on the back to finish with a 79...if that was me last year...prob would have struggled to break 90...so am proud of that... :mrgreen:
also...first time with 4 birds in a round...woohoo...

Good come back Mau. 4 birds, great stuff. If you are anything like me you would have been driving home thinking about those OOB's & dreaming of what might have been. Must stand you in good stead for when you start well & have a good round going.

Plus, two ave. rounds & broke 80 each time. No matter how bad I'm playing, I'll do everything in my power to break 80. Even cheat. 8O

Joe

Well done, gentlemen. I played a solid round. 36 points. 2 x 1 pointers, 2 x 3 pointers and the rest 2 pointers. I was happy to go around without a wipe, although I could have scored much better if my putting stroke was in existence... maybe next week.

I took my son Mitchell to Corinda pitch & put and had a great day
Mitchell shot 63 for the 1st 18 holes 11 over.
He then wanted to play again and had 34 7 over.
You might think this isn't too crash hot.
Mitchell turned 4 in January.

Wow onewood, Mitchell sounds great! What a fantastic thing for a little bloke to get into. As long as he is having fun...and it sure sounds like he is.

Judge...you will have to share the secret of your success on Saturday! Was it the Subway or the JD's that did it for you??!!

onewood, that is unbbelievable!

Courty, great solid round!

Mau, I would be drunk as 10 men if I broke 80, How strange is this game! :roll:

Had 38 points at Oxley on Saturday,a couple of holes were my downfall.
Played alternate shot at Redcliffe on Sunday,never again :evil: .Lots of walking not enough swinging.I felt ripped off at the end,I did'nt feel like I could get into a rhythm playing every second shot.I should'nt winge the course was in good nick and the weather was great,playing Royal Queensland next weekend

I also hate 4somes gazgolf1, normally tell the missus on that weekend (we only play it once a year) that 'Stuff golf, think I'll spend the day with you Darling!'
Works a treat! :twisted:

Did not play this weekend...was meant to work, but got told that I was not required...so packed up the family and headed off to the Grampians...had a wonderful time doing the tourist stuff...

Wont be playing this weekend or next weekend as I am on call with work, and it is just not worth risking going out to play when you could get called out :evil: (Anyone have a vacancie that does not require w/e or on callwork :?: :?: :?: )

Will have to try and get to the driving range for some practice... :wink:

Great score at Ranfurlie on Saturday , the wind was probably howling as it was down our way.

Have played your course (ranfurlie) twice in the past month and thoroughly enjoyed it both times, it's a great track, and I'll bet the teeth come out on the real windy days.

I had a +3 playing par on the weekend which helped tip the handicap from 10 to 9 (for the first time in single figures) so I was also pretty happy (had a quiet bourbon to celebrate)

Well Done

Congradulations Redd
9 point what
My lowest was 7.4 and it lasted for 1 week, I then went back out to 9 before finally getting back to 7.2 last week. So I have atleast 3 weeks at 7 :wink:

It's at 9.1 , so I've got 4 rounds leeway to try and hang in there, yeah glad it's not 9.4 -1 round, and back out you go

Redd

Nice work Judge. I strained some rib muscles practising on Friday and played like my 3 year old daughter Saturday . Only she putts better.

Congrats Redd, hopefully it wont be long before I join you. Maybe if I have a few less 'quiet' bourbons Friday night and it might be sooner than I think!
Where are you a member at? You have probably said before in a thread somewhere but I can't recall...

Wind was blowing a bit on Saturday, I hit 9 iron from 150 odd thru the back of the green on the 6th!
