Played McLeod yesterday. Overall the course condition was very good. We got a bit wet but dried off by the end.
I played terribly. 23 points off 12. 25 over.
7 dropped from bad putts
7 dropped from not getting up and down
3 dropped from bad iron and hybrid shots
7 dropped from driver – 5 from 2 drives!
1 dropped from 4i tee shot on a par 4Nothing good all day
1 par on 10 our first hole
11 bogies
4 doubles
2 triplesI played … really crap
But it’s not a poo game so that’s a positive
23 points at McLeod
Close….to poo? 😉
Very
You could smell it in the air? 🙂
Like I stepped in something!

From mid fairway?
From mid fairway?
I guessing from a hazard
Im only messing with Goldy about how far he drives the ball.;) He bags my putting ever since the first Nationals!
Well I knoked in a birdie putt on the 1st at Lakelands from about 20m short of the green so it’s possible

My chipping around the green with the lob wedge suffers from a tendency to not make a big enough swing
Usually this means I don’t swing back enough and then in a panic to get the ball to the target my hands step in and throw the clubhead and usually that leads to a thin or fat shot
Confidence was mentioned because one of the reasons for the too short backswing is a history of blading it so there’s a fear factor in creating the speed I need
It’s quite a roller coaster – too avoid the blade I create the conditions that usually lead to a blade!

25 (6W 1×1) – what can I say…..I stunk the place up. Did manage a par on 18 to square the match for of only two 3 pointers.
You must have been pumped up playing with me and Bump – you’ve struggled since!

You are right about GIRs though. Had a couple that were on but rolled off too.
Bribie is a tough driving course. The fairways are tight to tightish but once you leave them you usually have tree trouble straight away. It’s a great test.
My driving was pretty good but you pay a price for being a bit off there.
I’ve had short game lessons – chipping and putting – and am happy enough with contact with lower lifted clubs. Confidence to make the needed swing with higher lofted clubs will come in time.
