  • My round today

    Played in a Stableford today, greens were a bit icy for the first few holes and there was a stiff wind.

    Hole 1 - PAR - Good Drive, 8 Iron to the front of the green. Pin miles back on the left meant I couldn't go directly at it. Holed a decent 6 foot par putt.

    Hole 2 - PAR - Good Drive, 9 Iron landed on the green and bounced through. Played a miracle downhill chip to 4 foot and holed the putt.

    Hole 3 - BOGEY - Good drive, missed green with 6 Iron, chipped over bunker to 6 feet, missed putt.

    Hole 4 - PAR - 7 Iron on green, 2 putt.

    Hole 5 - PAR - Great Drive, 9 Iron to 20 feet, just missed putt.

    Hole 6 - BOGEY - Drive down the middle, slightly pulled 6 iron, a few feet left of green. No chance of getting chip close, green was icy.

    Hole 7 - BIRDIE - Drive, 3 wood, controlled 6 Iron into a stiff wind. Holed a 5 foot putt.

    Hole 8 - DOUBLE BOGEY - Par 4 unreachable in 2. 3rd shot wedge left me 30 feet short. 3 Putted.

    Hole 9 - DOUBLE BOGEY - 6 Iron found left side bunker, thinned out into bushes, chipped on and 2 putted.

    Hole 10 - BOGEY - Another unreachable par 4 ( Only in Winter !), Drive into right rough, 3 wood short, wedge on and 2 putt.

    Hole 11 - BOGEY - 3 wood short left on long par 3. Poor chip, missed putt.

    Hole 12 - BOGEY - Drive, 6 Iron into right bunker. Good trap shot to 5 foot, missed putt.

    Hole 13 - BOGEY - Long par 4, dog leg, Drove right and layed up with 7 iron. Wedge on, missed putt.

    Hole 14 - BOGEY - Drove in left rough, 3 iron down fairway. 3 wood pushed right. Chipped to 4 feet. Lipped out for par.

    Hole 15 - BOGEY - Drive, 7 iron to middle of the green. 3 putt.

    Hole 16 - PAR - Drive, Wedge and 2 putts.

    Hole 17 - PAR - Long par 3, Used a Driver. 2 Putts.

    Hole 18 - PAR - Short par 4 played off temporary tee. 3 wood in left bunker, thinned bunker shot, chipped to 4 feet, holed putt.

    Stableford score : ME 30
    Others, 29, 23 and 21.

    From a full handicap.

    I can't wait for summer, I felt I played well.

    I reckon you would probably get a handicap of about 10 for that effort week in week out (I assume all the scores you wrote down were gross rather than nett?)

      Nice round - the par on the 17th must have felt like a birdie. Any good tips for putting on ice?

        My handicap is actually 5.

        My Dad scored 29 points and he won the 3rd Division.

        That's the lowest score I've known that has won a stableford.

        One player got 36 points which is level par with his handicap. His score was the best. Some guy I played with scored 8 points on the front 9 which is about the lowest I've ever seen.

        Trouble is we play off our normal Comp tee's so with the mud and cold weather, the course is playing so long. A few years ago we used to play off winter mats that were moved forward by around 20 - 30 yards.

            I'm playing well at the moment. Trouble is the course is a mud bath and it's playing super long. At least 3 of the par 4's I can't reach.
