38 points yesterday off the forward tees with 36 putts. Again I don't want to talk about it.

it's a funny old game we don't want to talk about it but yet all we do is talk about it

36(18)(18) pts off 12 @ Druids Heath yesterday playing off the green markers.

A round that included 3 birdies on the front 9 and 3 scratches overall which was disappointing.

Can feel a really good round coming soon, hopefully in Druids Glen tomorrow evening.

Could a member post the results of the comp if possible. I'd imagine 40/1 points won it.

14 points for 9 holes in Mahon just there this eve. Was just losing shots around the green, it was joyous to hit the ball after Mitchelstowns antics. Tee to 30 yards of green was grand, then it was just the usual for me.

Thanks, that be great. Was cut .4 according to Golfnet, so back down to 11 which was a bonus. Good score for your playing partner and a reduction for him too.

Played Druids Glen this evening in a fourball better ball competition.
The course chewed me up and spat me out, again.

It was my third time playing the course and I struggled each time. Playing there again a couple more times in the next couple of weeks so hopefully I will get a good round in at some stage.

Having said that, even when playing dirt it's a pleasure to walk around it and for only €20 with a member ya can't go wrong

37 points around Athlone this evening playing off 5. Played some really good golf except for 2 holes really

the 6th hole was playing straight down wind and from a forward tee I tried to hit a baby half 9 iron from 135 yards. Ended up carrying the green and clearing it over the 7th tee some 30 yards further behind the green into the Shannon. Nice scratch there.

Also took a 6 on the last hole with a 4 putt

but apart from that played really solid stuff with 3 birdies. Could have had about 9 birdies though if I just got a few putts to drop. Horseshoed out of the hole 4 times from inside 10 feet for birdies. Had an eagle putt stop on the lip too

33pts at Woodland GC Open today... Leaving too many out there and cannot get through a round without 2 disasters. My first six holes had two scratches, two pars, a bogey and a deuce today! Need to wipe out the disasters, really holding me back from shooting a nice score or two and getting the handicap back down.

37 points Saturday in Strandhill off 11. Actuall won the comp which was a bonus and got cut.4.

Get in.

Congrats on the W.

31 points and 88 strokes off 12 around the European today. Delighted with the score as its my first 30's round since I changed my grip recently. Struck the ball well and only lost shots for silly mistakes and unlucky run-offs etc.

4 Pars
11 Bogeys
3 Doubles
FIR 53%
GIR 22%
Putts 33

KClub Ryder tomorrow now so more of the same please.

Very poor round today at the Killeen Open. No excuses I played dreadful for the most part. Some excellent drives but still managed to lose 5 balls going into water. The putter was struggling (I mean I was) from 6 birdie putts I only managed to walk off two greens with a par.

The weather was great and great credit to the folks at Killeen as the course is in fantastic shape. A pleasure to play even as poor as I did.

78 gross in Carlow GC yesterday off 3.

Disappointing score, considering not only some decent golf of late, but also the weather, which was absolutely incredible. Playing an open singles off the back tees was unusual, a rare experience in general I would have thought, but it wasn't my long game that let me down. Drove the ball really well with the exception of one expensive tee shot off the index 1 7th, where I pulled one left into some cabbage. Chopped it out well, but 3 putted for a double which kind of set the tone for the day. Outside of a 10 footer for par on 13, I made nothing on the greens, and 35 putts overall was considerably more than I've taken of late.

Back to back three putts on 3 and 4 (the latter of which I will unashamedly put down to a really disappointingly thought out pin-position) stifled an encouraging start, and a birdieless round was to be complimented with a third and final three putt, this time for par on 18. It will mean my second straight 0.1, after missing the buffer by one stroke in Lucan on Tuesday, and since I have ambitions of playing the North of Ireland in Portrush this July, each one hurts. Am hoping a decent performance on Saturday will keep the handicap in check; a few less movements on the dance floor, and a good score is on.

Will say one thing however; Carlow is one of the most challenging, fairest (with the exception of fourth green) and best designed courses in Ireland. Anyone who hasn't played it should make it their business to do so.
Edit: css was 32pts, so 0.1 avoided. Much happier :-)

Second round on a full course last weekend and scored 103 which I was extremely happy with considering I wasnt using woods as I ain't confident with them at all yet, used a three hybrid on the longer holes which was borrowed with the guy I was playing with and had some brilliant shots with it. reckon it was a lucky score a little to be honest but was delighted with it to be honest and did wonders for my confidence

Lost 2&1 in club championship match yesterday evening on killeen,
played ok,but giving too many shots to a young lad who is playing a lot more golf than me,had 5 birdies but gave away too many soft holes.
going straight from work to the first tee is never a good idea!
disappointed to lose as i was the defending champion but he was a nice lad and a good player so best of luck to him:)
