Howdy...
Haven't blogged much of late as I've been busy at work in the lead up to the end of our Financial Year, though I've still managed to sneak a couple of rounds in over the last 4 weeks.
My last 3 rounds have all been of the same stuff, good golf for the majority, with 3-4 bad shot selection decisions leading to blow out holes and killing my score.
Played Eynesbury GC, a new course here, for the second time on a Public holiday Monday a few weeks back and was 6 over the card thru 12 holes before the wind got up. Finished with a net 75 on the day. The funny moment of the day was on a 188m (206yds) par 3 which was playing dead into the wind. First I took 3 iron, back in the stance, tried to punch it low into the wind, hosel rocketed it right into a dam. So, then I decide to take driver, and promptly hit a beauty to 15 feet.
My last 2 rounds at my home club have seen me finish in the "buffer zone" with a pair of net 73's. Last weeks was worthy of note as it included 6 double bogey's and 3 birdies. It was again a case of a couple of poor shot selections and several putts burning the edges and not dropping that saw me score as I did.
Right now I am striking the ball well, am as confident with my new putter and short game as I have ever been, and yet I am only just playing to my new handicap.
Bottom line, I know I am close to another low round (or two) that will hopefully see me reach yet another of my golfing goals, single figures...
Thanks for reading...
Cheers.
