    88 strokes in moor park with 3 pars. Not great at all, wide fairways saved me alot, otherwise I was in big trouble.

    105 strokes and 27 points off 20 again today, this time in Naas with PARlance, dar_cool and FixdePitchmark.

    1 par.
    6 bogeys.
    7 double bogeys (including one 2 pointer on index 1).
    3 triple bogeys (including one 1 pointer on index 2).
    1 absolute disaster.

    I didn't score on 3 holes again.

    Off the tee I wasn't as good today as i was on monday, and wasn't as good on the green (possibly due to using a putter I bought last night). But to have scored the same my shots in the middle mustn't have been as bad.

    Cheers to the 3 lads for having me out with them. I really enjoyed it.

    This post has my scores from Monday for the same strokes and points. Hopefully next time I can have no disasters and start removing triple bogeys from the card in the near future

    Good to see you're enjoying it. You will soon be breaking 100.
    Spend plenty of time of the putting green with a new putter, otherwise stick with your €7.50 one! It's all about feel & you need to find the "feel" of a new putter.

    Good shooting though, well done.

    Fair play on getting out!!
    Im the same as yourself with a new putter, best thing is to look up Putter Drills and then spend few hours a week on the Putter Green!! You'll save a few strokes there :)

    Best of luck for 2014

    Keep it up Dr. You'll be flying once you start to play regularly. Serious foundation for someone new to the game. I'd have liked to see your driving at Castleknock because there was some peaches out there today.
    You'll save 5 strokes very quickly once you get used to the putter.

    36 points for myself off 17 with the lads.
    18 out and 18 in.
    Some messy holes on the front 9 that could/should have been avoided with more concentration. But a string of pars thrown in were decent golf was played.
    Plodded along with bogeys on the back 9.

    Happy with that as a start to 2014.
    26 points was a struggle this time last year, 36 today and I think/hope there's a gear or two left.

    Great start to 2014 for me! Shot 82 off 14. Format was v par, ended up 4up.

    According to howdidido I won the competition but I expect to be demoted to third place. I have a -2 correction from before Christmas.

    1 birdie
    6 pars
    11 bogies
    0 double bogies :D first time ever for me in competitive golf!

    Moment of the day was a 9-iron to 6 inches on the 14th. Had hit a poor drive, knocked down, and hit a reasonable recovery with a rescue. Really enjoyed the tap in par. But the main delight was just how consistent I was today.

    103 gross in Rathcore
    5 triples (3 tee out of bounds so hitting 3 off T)
    1 Par
    8 Bogey
    4 Dbl Bogey's

    It was pretty bad for me, bad drives, some useless irons and crap putting.

    My chiping and pitching was good today,pitching within 10ft and chiping with 5ft or less. The bad part was I couldn't sink them. I easily left over 10 shots out there today not counting drops.

    Going to see if I can get more time on the putting green and work on my longer irons and driver in that order. I found with this weather its all about carry as you can't count on roll,so club down.

    Hadnt played since first Sunday in December for a variety of reasons so was very rusty on my comeback in a wet and windy Moate this morning. Could only manage a miserable 18pts for a 13 hole competition. I had 4 or 5 good holes but 2 stinkers in particular.

    Things can only get better!

    Played casual 9 yesterday in Rathcore. Been out for some weeks so was nice to just get out and play a bit. 18 points off 12 so no complaints. Was mostly pleased with driving with a 75% FIR.

    Hitting decent irons I find very tough on wet fairways. Too many heavy shots and long divots!!

    Hope to be back swinging proper in a few weeks.

    Yeah it was raining real heavy all Friday night. Course was fairly damp on Saturday afternoon. Although it has been dry last two days so might be in better nick. 3rd fairway needs sorting.

    Registered Users Posts: 381 ✭✭Danny dyers double


    Joined Grange Castle yesterday and managed to play 15 holes .

    Id 28 points but i marked of 28 HC . Terrible front nine id only 13 points with 3 scratchs mainly due to my driving being awful , hooking every single one .

    6 holes on back 9 was much better as i was only 6 shots over .

    Going really give it a good go this year as i plan on getting out at least twice a week when we get the longer evenings .
