Twilight

These boys rush through it, no honours for any shot.... :lol:

First hole pull hook into trees and scrambled up to green for a wipe.
And that summed up the walk.
3 wipes.
12 points :oops:

Willunga looked good on the telly, and was quite surprised that the pro's weren't ripping it apart which in a way pleases me that these short courses can still be tough

Went for 9 last night with the lad at Thaxted, never seen the greens so fluffy and slow :shock: 50 off the stick but came home 2 over for the last 4 holes so good finish, pleasingly got the Driver working by putting my right leg back a touch, even though it was downhill and with the wind I hit my drive 280 on the 4th

Vines tonight followed by some beers

Willunga I'd say is definitely worth a hit in near future.
I was surprised that the players I saw didn't take on a couple of the driveable par 4s

Noone needs to know about the gale force tail wind :lol:

Friday Twilight.

I’m back baby!

Well, sort of. Stealth came to the party tonight. Piped a few down the guts. 2 fiddy + , which for an old **** like me I was happy with.

Drained a few putts, back to back birdies. Chipping sound.

Back to Adelaide next weekend which includes a game at the old stomping ground with son and a few mates.

Looking forward to it.

Flaggy this morning

Beautiful sunrise over the hills. Get to flaggy and it starts raining and wind picks up :lol: rain lasted 10mins

Changed the weights in driver to high launch in the carpark.
Added the baffler.
19points on front 9 (started 10) wiped 17. In bunker for 2 and took 2 to get out...

Then went alright 1st 6 holes.

Water on 7. Took a drop near bunkers and just didn't even hit the ball ffs and my little chipping game had been solid.
Wiped 7 and 8. Found bunker on 8 in 3 and took 2 and didn't get out so picked up.

Had a few putts that just turned straight left off the face that even the other guys couldn't believe.

35 points overall but didn't feel like it was that good of a day.
Baffler will be dropped for tomorrow
Sriver settings reverted back to how they were. Although did hit 3 beautiful long drives

Tanunda pines

Some pre round research took place as it's a course I've never played.

Greens just recovering from coring and nice and fluffy.

Short course with a few doglegs.

Was an enjoyable walk.

Missed a few absolute sitters with the putter, which is nothing unusual

Driver, adjusted back to how it was pre yesterday behaved itself for all bar 2 holes really
Short game was ok.

87 off the stick for 37pts and 2nd place in the comp

Also one if the lads had a hole in one on a 145mish par 3. There was a side game of matchplay and I guess that's one way to win a hole :lol:

Driving range tonight.

Dear reader, I’m trembling as I write this, tempting the golfing gods is not a good thing to do.

It’s with a large sense of trepidation, but, I think…………

The Stealth is dialled in. I repeat the Stealth is dialled in. Well, in Victorian conditions at least.

Without doubt I hit the ******* thing sideways on Sunday!

Great day down at Wirrina today, wind was up though which made it tough conditions, we ended up 3 under with the winners getting 6 under.

Driver continued its good form and I even got the putter going.

Course is in good nick, a bit of couch growing across 3-4 greens but other than that can't fault the course, was in better condition that this time last year.
