Daily Golf - Where you are playing and how you go

[mighty_tiger_79]

So South Lakes today.
Started on 10.
Quite warm conditions for the 1st 6 holes.
Then the fog rolled in and visibility dropped quite low when the ball went airborne..

Anyway front 9. And i was in good touch. 20pts.
Most things went right.
Back 9
Well, how quickly the round can just **** up.
Had 3 wipes in a row, including the easiest hole on the course....followed by the Par 4, 4th, and then a poor hook with the 8i on the Par 3.....went into the bushes I think. Honestly....a disgrace.
Managed to scrape together 11pts....
**** this game

So had a spare few minutes. Popped into House of Golf for a quick squiz. Not sure why, after last time there.
Anyway so just browsing and the same fat **** from last time comes up and just starts asking questions....mate **** off. The youngster in the shop understood it when I said Id ask if I needed anything.....
I dont give a flying **** about you having the only machine that can bend the clubs to the 9 different lie angles....

I dropped into Drummo's on Sunday to see if the had a clothing item I had been waiting for to come in. It's a Footjoy Thermal top. Got one last year and its bloody awesome, so wanted to get a second. I actually called in about 6 weeks ago, and they had not received most of their winter stock. They said as I am a drummo's member they would e-mail me when they came in..... they didn't..... or maybe they have an old e-mail address, come to think of it!

Anywho the thermal long sleeve tops are spot on, in a Melbourne winter, they get a run often.... & I don't even play golf (much) anymore.

Seems to be a common trait with these franchises......an Adelaide based one is similar with their supposed call backs!

Glad I didn’t play.

Far to sore from footy yesterday to have a hit today.

[mighty_tiger_79]

89 stroke.
Trying conditions, blustery gale breezes...

So we started off rather interesting.
Drive rolled over the path and onto rough on the 9th in a puddle of water. Hit it, hits the bloody tree.
Then from 150m, down breeze, 7i which i caught heavy, so looking left and short of green. Low and behold its rolled onto the back left corner of the green....wtf and of course the flag is at the front..... 4 putt 8. Ffs. Honestly disgraceful, deeply ashamed.

All day long i held the putter, stood over the putts, from all distances and seriously had , no idea what to ******* do, it was strange.
It was an interesting day for a new member, 17yr old kid off 3. He was good to watch. He hit some cracking low stingers with his 2i.

So walk off with 89.
Probably what it deserved, but was so close to being so much better.

Par
Weather was fantastic. Shorts got a run for 1st time in a while.
Didnt touch clubs all week.
Picked up my Box of Bridgestone RXS during week which i got for $25 on ebay!

So on the tee, pulled out the Driver most of the day and just trying to focus on getting the right shoulder through the ball. Best ive driven in a long time!
Putting, well, a weeks a long time in golf.
I was pretty well in the zone! Nailed some very very nice putts.
The back 9 for the 3rd round in a row, 2 Thax and south Lakes, ive just not scored. Hit a nice drive and shank the next....or some ****** up shit.
On the 15th hit a nice little 9i runner from the 94m the boys told me it was and it was tracking nicely. Gave the afternoon players something to get inside, and importantly made the birdie putt!

+2 overall.
