  • Got an Eagle

    Played in a stableford match today at my home course and ended up with a 82 off the stick… should have been better though.. This whole CCR thing is just ****. i play off 14, shoot 39 points and my handicap doesn’t move…...
    anyway. some of my stats below

    29 putts
    5 pars
    2 birdies
    1 eagle <-

    the eagle came when my first shot was over the trees on a dogleg left but didn’t quite make the fairway.. i’m 50m out, pin at the back, 60degree in hand… i knew the shot was going to go high because of the rough.. As the ball is in the air i’m telling it to “go go”. made it over the bunker, must have hit the downslope that leans onto the green, ran up and into the hole…

    front 9 i was even par up until the 8th hole where i went bogie, double bogie. and had only 7 putts between 1 and the 7th hole.
    sitll working on my swing, more so mental than physical… but all going in the right direction.

        Q: Which is more satisfying - the on-in-two, one putt eagle; the hole-out-from-off-the-green eagle; the ace-on-a-par-3 eagle; or the drive-the-par 4, one putt eagle?

        A: Trick question - they're all satisfying!

        Well done!

          well. i'm yet to get an Albatros... been within 7ft each time and those 2 times i didn't get my eagle.

          I'll probably remember my first 2 eagles more than any other... the first one i got from 130m out PW in, with a bit of a pull slice that made a divot 15 inches infront of the flagstick, hit the flag stick then dropped down...... but this latest one was off a good shot.. i was closer to to the flag and saw the shot better as the ball rolled in...

          next trick is to get a hole in 1.
