    37 pts in Dunmurry Springs in extremely windy conditions
    10 pars
    7 bogey's
    1 double
    37 putts
    FIR 71%
    GIR 67%

    Overall happy enough but disappointed with two silly 3 putts.

    Superb round for me today. 15 hole comp, +1 for 39 points!

    2 birdies
    11 pars
    1 bogey
    1 double

    Could just do no wrong all day, short game was on fire. Sounds like I may have won the competition as well.

    Played really really well today
    Gross 72 (+1)

    9 pars
    4 birdies
    5 bogey's
    FIR 70%
    GIR 50%
    Putts 27

    +2 front nine , delighted to shoot -1 on back nine, 3 birdies put the gloss on it. Hopefully form stays with me when qualifying returns & I can get the handicap going in the right direction again.

    Thats class well done, nailed on Barton cup call up i reckon, played in the Lakes Saturday morning in a gale. 13 bogeys a double and 4 pars this has really wrecked my par v bogey stat which i reckon is the most important indicator of how you are doing, am always trying to pull my par figure away from my bogey figure but 9 more bogies than Pars arrrgh.

    Won the competition by 3 clear shots, happy days! Down to 9 now for the rest of the winter. It'll be a good test for my planned handicap by the end of the year :D

    Well done.

    +1 in my last round. 2 birdies and 3 bogeys (one of them a crazy one on a handy hole) and all the rest pars. Very steady stuff, hit 3 poor drives though, two of which cost me bogeys, I drive it fairly long and in fairness I'm straight most of the time but I always seem to hit 1 or 2 wild ones which can get me into trouble. Still though, very happy overall and can't wait for these winter rules to be gone and the journey to scratch can get up and running again!

    81 strokes today for 36pts
    Played in a ***king gale, tough tough conditions but enjoyed it.

    8 pars
    1 birdie
    7 bogey's
    2 doubles

    Played solid enough in the conditions and very happy with my game at the minute.

    Winter League final today in Moate, played well on front 9 with 17pts but faded badly in the middle section and ended up with 31pts.

    Any good overall?

    First 18 hole and competitive round today in 5 months (generally don't bother with the winter and spring 12 holes leagues as I don't have the ability to shoot 30+ pts on 2/3 handicap and therefore be competitive). Anyway the conditions were tough with a gale blowing although thankfully it remained dry and mild so was interested to see how the winter practice and subtle swing change would fair out. Overall pretty happy with my ball striking especially with the irons and hit some nice shots including a hole in one on our index 18 which was playing down wind, ball pitched 5 feet in front of the flag and disappeared. That said I was pulling a good few drives left into trees and my short game was very weak resulting in a poor final score of 5 down in V-Par and some 10 shots off the winner.

    Last person on our team playing tomorrow so I don't know yet. This was the first year we split the final over Saturday and Sunday (as suggested by various members) but the snow last week meant we had to play this weekend as well.

    First round off the back whites this year yesterday, howling wind. Game of two halves with just a 3 over on the front for 22 points and ass kicking XX over on the back for a limped home 10 points, 32 points overall, ugly stuff

    My stuff on Adverts, mostly Tesla Pre Highland Model 3

    32 points through 14, 1 birdie 5 pars 6 bogeys 2 db.

    22 putts helped the day, unfortunately one of them a 3 putt.

    Great morning for golf :-)


    Won it on countback. My second successive competition win. :-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 787 ✭✭✭mafc


    Funny old game
    33pts today in breezy conditions
    13 on front 9 with 2 scratches including an OOB, rallied on back 9 with 6 pars on the trot. Chip in for par on 14 after a dreaded shank but bogey's on last three put an end to my run.

    Was out this morning with barnaboy in castle barna, yet another inconsistent round for me. Hit my first into the hazard running parallel to the first (1st time to ever do that) And that was the start of the bad golf. Scratched the second after a terrible drive again. Went on a run of pars and (avoidable) bogeys from 8 to 17 and finished as i started with a scratch after a terrible drive. Was only a couple over for this run. 😕
    The game is there, just to get it consistent!!!

    Game is coming together. Just need to relax! Too often trying to smash them into next week.....

    Not a great day for me either. Struggled to get into the zone and then faded badly near the end. 31 points, worst score in ages.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,215 ✭✭✭scrubber72


    31 points today is conditions that where surprisingly cold and windy. Two scratches caused by bad drives. Putting is just plain bad. New putter feels like the only solution just gotta explain that to the financial controller(wife).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,225 ✭✭✭benny79


    37 points on saturday in gale force winds :) Happy & sad round as the amount of putts I missed inside 4 feet was criminal! Overall very happy, swing good. 2 stupid scratches 1 out of no where on the first after a great Drive and second one just wrong club.

    but Im and starting to see my hard work paying off which is good. (Thank god :D)

    Turns out with my 31 pts Saturday in the Winter League Final in Moate that I am on the winning team!

    Also played yesterday in Killeen Castle. Lovely course but so tough. Very windy yesterday and was a little bit stiff from playing Saturday which didn't help. I had 24pts off 14 but I suppose it still shows I'm improving as I played there in 2011 and had 23pts off 18.

    31 points thruogh 14 with 9 pars 3 doubles and a bogey


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,526 ✭✭✭Slicemeister


    40 points in a casual round around Mallow today.
    1 birdie 8 pars 5 bogeys 3dbs and a scratch. 35 putts a bit disappointing, 2 3 putts in there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,643 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    29 points for 15 holes. Not great, but grand. The day was mostly a day for trying out my new wedges and seeing which one suited best for which kind of shot


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 368 ✭✭markthespark77


    went out for a casual 9 holes which turned into 18 holes, had a strange day of it, was playing well without even thinking about it.and only after the round i seen that i broke my own course record of 79 with a gross 76, so net 66 for 6 under was delighted...

    12 pars
    1 birdie
    5 bogies

    now to try and keep it up for the season ahead...

    Class day on course this morning, blue skies, Sun shining, birds singing and deer running around :) Playing good golf help the enjoyment too.

    Eagles:1
    Pars: 7
    Bogies: 7
    Doubles: 3

    Delighted with game off tee and irons but was first day on course putting cack handed so the 9 times I had 3 putts or more was kinda expected. Delighted though for this time of the year things are already starting to come together.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,872 ✭✭✭Golfgraffix


    34 in the open at St Anne's, bad finish could have been a comfortable 39 if I could make a putt.

    Fix and parlance still out there, curious to see the scores, thought it was a tough day

    35pts - but happier to have a 79 in strokes to be honest.

    That figure shouldn't mean anything any more - but still does a little. Up and down from 130 yards to do it :D

    1st time ever , I had the morning practising before round - she gave me full day off.

    Short game work paying off a little - but putting not great today - 2 , 3 putts - 1 shocker putt for a 8 foot bird.

    Very enjoyable day - she got a box of chocolates as pay off ;)

    Good signs there - but much more work to go.

    Went out for 18 this morning. +7 after 6 couldn't hit the ball out of my way was thinking of coming in after 9. Ploughed on anyway giving the good weather ended up being 2 over for next 12 holes :)

    Finished 2 under nett and 39 points.

    Birdies: 3
    Pars: 5
    Bogies: 8
    Double: 2


    Happy with my 33 putts, second day putting cross handed, had a lot better feel for pace and more confidence :) onwards and upwards. Ballykisteen tomorrow for my 3rd round in a row..joys of student life
