OldBogeyParticipant4BBB at Warra today.
No wipes but a few close shaves. We each got our name on the card 9 times, with 2 pars each, but not enough 3-pointers.
39 points – well off the pace.People say that nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.

Yesterday’s winners had 47. 19 pairs had better than 40.
So, yes, our score wasn’t much.People say that nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.

OldBogeyParticipantI would have sworn (I often do) that I wrote about Vets game at Berwick-Montuna yesterday but it doesn’t seem to be here, so perhaps it didn’t ‘submit’. Oh well.
Vets at Berwick-Montuna yesterday. A good course in great nick, short but tight – accuracy is paramount. 27 points.Moving right along.
Par plus at Warra today. Everything was going swimmingly until the cold front with rain hit around midday. Greens were twice as fast as B-M yesterday. I had trouble adapting. Two 3-putts, only four 1-putts. Only two ++s. Lots of closely missed opportunities. End result was -7. Came in like a drowned rat.

FrancieKeymasterAnd there’s not a cloud in the sky here for a top of 27.
But you played golf today and I didn’t, so you are definitely the winner in my eyes.You have lovely eyes. 🙄

OldBogeyParticipantIt’s just not fair sometimes, some people seem to have all the bad luck
We did get a smidgeon of drizzle and a bountiful top of 17°. That should make Bumpy fell a tad better. But we would’ve had no more than 1mm, compared to Cairns’ 500mm.

That’s really pleasing to hear. In saying that, I’m as interested in Cairns weather as I am for Melbourne’s.

Do we just change this topic thread to OB’s golf thread. Might save me looking in here. 🤔

OldBogeyParticipantStab at Warra today.
29 putts sounds alright, but everyone was whingeing about the slick greens and bastard pin placements. A very soft downhill putt would just keep going until it fell off the green. A side-slope putt would turn at right angles and roll off. Uphill putts would keep going past the hole, then you’ve got the downhill problem. The pins were placed near edges where the slope was greatest.
It was only 29 putts because all the others were from off the green.
25 points was mid-table mediocrity. All players in my group were playing off 17 and the others did worse than me.Yes, Micky, your handicap is now lower than mine and I’m not doing anything about it. When we get to June, I can start dragging my anchor out of the mud and get to play off a fairer handicap. Maybe.
