    Royal Melbourne East course today with JRG and friends. Thanks for invite

    29 points = 4 pars + 9 bogeys + 4 DB+ 1 (other)

    Hit lots of good shots today with no reward, had 4 holes where hit every shot good but still made a bogey.
    some very difficult pin placements at front of greens made scoring difficult on the rock hard greens.

    JRG and myself combined for aggregate score of 48 points.

    At RM score doesnt matter its about enjoying the uniqueness and magnitude of course including the awesomeness of the holes and knowing you are playing holes that best players in world have played, with pars and bogeys.. It really is a special place.

    Oldies’ nine hole stab this a.m.
    Playing off 20 gave me an extra shot on index-1 13th.
    Duffed a chip on 11 resulted in a 6. A 4 on the par3 18th. All other holes were 5s including a 3-putt par3.
    End result 18 points.
    It was hellishly slow, but that’s quite normal for that crowd.

    Do you Golf link the 9 hole comps. or play off red tees..?

    Pennant final today at Phillip Island.
    A great day for club at we won Div 1 and Div 3 finals

    I played Div 3 this year, and today in the final I had dancer on that bag as caddy today, he focussed me and got me a 8&7 win.

    I was getting 3 shots today on 4th, 8th and 12th but game was over before needed the shot on 12th hole.

    Now pennant is over I can focus on brining handicap down again.
    Its going to be a big week at the club

    Tomorrow I go and play Royal Melbourne with JRG which will be enjoyable as it can get

    So, I’m third from the bottom and have never won a NAGA ?

    Looking at your golf link 27.5 points is about your average so the scores are in OOM are inline with normal score.

    the irony is that you could score consistently score 26 or 27 in every OOM, which will probably never go close to winning a NAGA yet you would still be at the bottom of list.

    Victorian Veteran Golfers Association, Eastern Zone Challenge at Yallourn today.
    Basically, that’s all clubs east of Melb: East Gippsland, Peninsula, South Gippsland & West Gippsland.
    West Gippsland won by slim margin from South Gippsland.
    How did I play? Crap. 29 points.
    But it was nice to accept the trophy on behalf of 13 clubs in West Gippy.

    Congratulations to the wild west.

    Well I did my part for the southerners by having 39 points. (my best round around Yallourn)
    Good solid round 82 OTS , which included 3×3 putt greens, until I settled down on slower pace and then had 7 x 1 putts.
    ball striking good.

    Sunday is pennant at Leongatha, and then Monday 26th is a game at Yarram

    So it turns out that the comp win I had in December was, unbeknownst to me, a monthly medal win. My first one anywhere as it happens.

    The upshot is that I’m in the final on Sunday week. And thanks to the combined efforts of COVID and Dictator Dan…there are only 7 monthly medal winners.

    Could be fun.

    Did you actually win a medal.

    well done, I haven’t won a monthly medal for over 10 years

    2nd round of club championships yesterday at the home of golf.

    87 OTS in wind and rain. finished a commendable T13 in gross and T8 in nett.

    Pennant today at Wonthaggi in the rain.
    No clouds anywhere else in Victoria except over Wonthaggi and there were heavy showers as we teed off then showers all day.
    really stayed focussed today and won match 1 up.
    close match all day and neither player was never more than 1 up at any point.
    lucky I was getting 1 shot today and that was on 8th hole a par 3.( according to match play index)
    match was all square at turn.
    I won 10th, he won 11th, I won 12th hole to go 1 up then held solid and halved all way home to win at last.so a solid effort
    team lost 3/4

    Off to play a great course on Phillip Island tomorrow called Aussie Golf Ranch, every hole is a par 3. Its a gem, lots of bunkers and water hazards, and 2 sets of tees so can do 18 different holes.

    83 last week brought me In to 10.4
    3 shots off handicap by year end still the achievable goal
    coach says I will achieve this goal without making changes to my golf swing.

    First round of club championships on Saturday and R1 of pennant sunday at Korumnurra.

    saturday
    Lang Lang:
    course was in excellent condition just a windy day. played well all day a and in control of game all day finish of bogey , Double bogey for 83.
    finished T14 in Gross event so a commendable effort in wind, as only 8 players out of field of 140 broke 80.
    qualified for net championship with a 72, at T6 and T3 in seniors championship.
    final rounds next week
    sunday
    pennant at Korumburra
    lost 2/1 my first loss in pennant since mid way through 2019 .My opponent gave me chances, which I surprisingly didn’t take advantage of..(lack of match play tune up)
    greens were bumpy and slow after coring and sanding, so this was quite a difference from the slick surface on day before and this meant putting was a lucky dip from inside 1m. I missed 2 putts inside 1m at about mid point of round and this was the difference in end.
    next week will be different and i will be more focussed when opponent gives me chances.
