    30 for 15 today, finished last in the group of three:(

    Pretty happy with all aspects of the game having put in a lot of work on the range in the "off season".

    1st win if the year yesterday, 39 with a blob oh the last, one of those days when every putt dropped.

    Great timing as we have an early qualifier for Barton Cup coming up.

    Cool - a tough course to have your best ever score - must have been an amazing day. :)

    Didn't think it was possible but actually getting worse off the tee.

    What did you think of the course conditions?

    In great shape considering the recent weather. Greens well above average. Bunkers were awful but I guess that's the case everywhere. They are Gur in my home course Tuam, so didn't know how to play them in that sloppy condition.

    27 points for 13 holes in the spring league in Ballykisteen today. Score was the same as last week. I was happy with the result considering how I started (double bogeyed 1 and 2, parred the third and scratched the fourth!). So had 5 points for the first 4 holes and 22 for the next 9. The highlight was the 12th which I birdied.

    Overall the short game was very good as I chipped well and single putted the 5th, 6th, 7th, 9th, 10th and 12th :eek:). Driving was poor early on but it seemed to come together after that as I may finally have fixed the sliced drive. If that's the case it bodes well with the short game in good shape.

    1 birdie
    5 pars
    4 bogeys
    2 doubles
    1 scratch

    21 points for back 9 today .

    Besides a few bad chips i played really well for my standard . But i do struggle with shots from 50 yards and closer , im starting to think Its a mental thing at this stage but at least i know what my practice time will be spent doing .

    Got out about 1.45 till 4 and it was a lovely afternoon after that terrible morning .

    Played some great stuff today. It was a rumble format over 15 holes. First 5 holes best score of the 3 players, second 5 two scores count and last 5 all three scores count.

    Had a sensational start. Was level par after 8 holes, but returned to human golf for the last 7. Finished +6 for the 15.

    2 birdies
    5 pars
    8 bogies
    0 doubles

    Game was excellent inside 150m, particularly my putting, but poor enough long game. Driving really patchy again, definitely need to get some lessons to sort it out. Won't make single figures driving the way I do.

    Unfotunately my two partners weren't playing too well so no chance of winning. dying to get to scoring comps while my game is in such good shape!

    Played in the Winter League Final in Moate on Sunday and while my team didn't do very well I was pleased with my own performance. I scored 38pts off 15 and felt that I didn't really play that well so there is definitely a big score waiting to escape sometime soon :D

    I birdied 9th & 18th, had 4 pars, 9 bogeys and 3 doubles. 85 strokes.


  • Registered Users Posts: 303 ✭✭Surfing_Xboxer


    played winter league semi finals yesterday in my home club Delgany - Myself and my partner won our match 2&1 ... We were the first match out and some pressure on the 1st teebox !!! I holed some big putts for halves and I had the winning two scores on the holes we needed to win.... CANNOT WAIT FOR THE FINAL !


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,333 ✭✭✭Tones69


    +5 for 16 last weekend, hit the ball nice but lipped a few putts which is annoying given the good looks i had! Cant wait to play 18 competitvely soon!


  • Registered Users Posts: 787 ✭✭✭mafc


    Played 14 holes today, great day for it.

    +4
    10 pars
    4 bogey's

    Played Rathcore today, great day for it.

    92 (48 front/44 back) Gross. 39pts off 23HCP with no points on two holes. Weird day, could play great only to make a mess of the next hole.

    7 Pars
    5 Bogeys
    3 Dbl Bogeys
    3 Triple Bogeys

    Driving very consistent as were woods and irons apart from a few fluffs.
    Had 4 drop shots, I'd either land short of the green into the water or put it over the back into the scrub only to lose it. Putting saved me a lot. Just realising I had seven pars, mental for the score I had lol

    Really must work on my PW down, can't seem to pin a distance on them at the minute and with rathcore it usually means just missing the front of the green and landing in the water. Best shot of the day was landing within 5ft of the pin from 150yds out of a fairway bunker. First bunker shot in weeks

    7 pars for a 23hc is fantastic shooting, well done. If you could have turned those double & triple bogey's in to bogeys you would have had a brilliant score. Keep it up as clearly you have lots of potential.

    Thanks ,

    I think all the triples I had a drop on. The doubles I have no real excuse for. Going for the greens in two on Par 4's only to land short then chip,pitch,bump and run or putt badly leaving a two putt. I had some really nice bump and runs and pitches today leaving me very close but they saved me more than anything. Anyhow, more short game practice is needed me thinks :)

    * Noticed some work being done on the course today, new practice area being put in, one thing it was missing so delighted!

    Not great today ,

    7 over for 11 in The Heritage.

    In water twice - 2 and 4 - both ended up doubles. Irons a bit pulling and pushing.
    I guess I was only 3 over for other 9 - but that is not the way this great game works.

    Finished strong. Lovely day for it - course fairways amazing condition. Greens slow for there. Bunkers improving.

    mafc - you seem to be having a very good run of scores over the last while ?

    Have you improved much ? Looks it from here.


  • Registered Users Posts: 134 ✭✭clouter


    9 holes in Enniscorthy this evening.

    Started well with par and 3 bogies in first 4 holes, had a few dodgy holes in middle and finished with few doubles.

    54 strokes- happy enough with that, hopefully get another 9holes in tomorrow evening.

    Yeh definitely improving, mainly keeping my drive on fairway / in play. Short game is good so even though I might miss greens, I would get a lot of up and downs. Wouldn't consider myself a great ball striker or long hitter but confidence is most important thing at the minute.

    Hope it continues & I haven't put the mockers on it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 310 ✭✭Dossy


    Played Modified four ball (best drive and own ball after that) 3/4 handicap aswell so off 13
    Played Saturday and managed to come 2nd with 48pts, another team also got 48pts so dunno how we were second but anyway,

    Drives were great and irons were solid all day, very clean didnt top any shot, had few that went off a bit to the right but was very confident standing over the ball with the irons

    Wedges werent great and the Putter ahhhh the f##king Putter,
    Every putt was short bar 3 where i was very aggressive going for Birdie, got 3 out of 4 Birds
    Alot to work on with the putter........and i thought i was sh#t hot on the carpet the night before :)

    Still a voucher in the pocket :)

    29 points for 15 holes on Sunday. I was 2 under after 3 holes and then let it slip a bit which was disappointing but still happy with the result on a very wet and windy day :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,804 ✭✭✭✭FixdePitchmark


    Only a bit of practice and only 6 holes.

    Striking the ball way better today. I know only 6 holes - but nice to walk away feeling happy after it.
    Level par.

    I've been playing away due to work and pleasure - I know I would be 3 or 4 or 5 shots worse off away from home.
    On a still day , my place is way easier than any of the courses I was on, or maybe you just play that much better at home.

    Could be an interesting topic for a thread.


  • Registered Users Posts: 192 ✭✭jokser250


    Played in a champagne scramble Sunday and we ended up finishing 3 rd with a score of 93 points ( winner had 95) . Delighted to get into the prizes . On a personal level my driving was 50/50 some good , some terrible , iron play was ok my pitching , chipping and putting were great which I was delighted with . Need to work on my longer clubs in range .

    80 strokes (+ 9 )
    31 putts (1 - 3 putt)

    A couple of very bad OTT swing - 2 resulting in balls OB. Was hoping that was out of my game , but back today a bit.

    Putting way better. 1 Bad 3 putt last hole. Bunker shots a bit better , more committed to full swing and , avoid getting too wristy.

    2 Birdies
    A little target to get 4 on a card over next few months - feel I can as on greens and now getting ball going at hole.

    Happy enough - work on OTT and stick at putting. Getting a bit steep on wedges - but could be all same thing.

    Was fairly windy on back nine , played well - first day out with GPS - work in progress.
