Silly Game

30-08-2010 5:06pm#1Just goes to show there is always hope with your golf game.
For the past 9 weeks I havent been able to hit the ball out of my way, loosing at least 2 or 3 balls a round (8 in Lough Erne!)...not breaking 30 points.
Captains first round yesterday and I shoot a 69 with a triple on the 9th from the middle of the fairway with an 8i and a double on 18 from similar with a 9i.:mad:
7 GIR but only one birdie but delighted to have found my game again....after 8 days in a row of 3+ hours on the range each day after work....
Bottom line, stick at it lads.
<end-of-anti-rant>
(though if I collapse next week I will be back here be-moaning my game again no doubt!

69 is excellent what day did you play on as anytime from Sat afternoon tee time was excellent? What handicap are you?
I played with the First round leader who shot a 64 - extremelly steady all the way round and has a good temperment so think he has good chance on Sat.
I had the worst start Imaginable - started with 7 - trees on right, hit out thought just over bunker on right but rolled back in- take no sand go over green onto path
4 putted the 6th from being on green just missed birdie putt across green as usual ball flies past hole.
I had 76 and think I am first sub - going out friday night so if get call for early start shall not be there.0 -

I was 11 on sat, only a small shower or rain but windy as hell, left with a wedge to the 7th and an 8 to the 10th, but the 12th was a driver and 7i!
I'm 9 at the moment, leader is low enough right?
Greens were lightening and I could never manage to leave myself an uphil put for birdie, so had to tap them all and hope!
Sure you can play in the 3 club comp instead

Interesting I might you know you are then as you must been right behind me as I was out at 10.45am - you are either one of the young very good players (grange meaning of young) or did one of your group have a 67? You must hit the ball a mile to only have an 8 iron to 10th (i hate that hole). I only had a half lob wedge to 12th but I can be all over the place (which i generally was).
Leader had a 64!!0 -

"Young?" </wipes tear from eye>
Im afraid not...though as you say, young for grange is under 50
My triple on 9 helped with the drive on 10 a little bit!
I was the best in my group, one of the others had a nett 72 off 2.
I think the smart money has to be on that 64, I'm hoping I can get into top 10 and maybe get some cash back on the tote!0 -

Lol, enjoy the 7's and 8's that someone in the end groups always has on teh first/second
Who pulled out? Thats a pity with a 65/66 to miss it!0 -

Well I had a 7 on the first in the first round!! My cousin Darragh he is with Connacht this year but not in the squad for this w/end but don't think they would release him to play- he had a 67 1st round.0 -

"double, double, triple" to start...:mad:
Won nearest the pin though!
How did u get on? Did I see a splash on 18?
Lets just say I enjoyed it 5,8 starts then 3 pars. Yep on 18th hit one of my best drives of the day - prob too good only sand wedge 2nd but blocked by trees on right - did not get it off the ground as ran it straight into the river
2 lads I played with started 3,3 then had a couple of bad holes to knock them out of contention- not disasters though.0
