I'm literally in the club house right now. Played today 33 points, played much better than that, but the greens were re-sanded yesterday to finish off the coring, whilst they are in very good condition jesus they were slow today. a bit fluffy, a bit damp and sandy = Bloody slow.

Course in ripping condition.

back to Flaggy this morning.

the golf was a rollercoaster, but it was mainly that downward spiral.
the greens got me again for the most part today. some were slow, some were quick and of course i hit the wrong speed shots on those greens.
ended with a paltry 23 points.
the 7th claimed its first ball.
lost a ball on the 8th and have no idea how!
quite a slow round given the bookings in the morning are barely half full

I think you meant daylight savings calls for twilight golf.... weather has nothing to do with it!

Played there AFL GF weekend.. .greens were cored 3 weeks before that, so they should be fine now...

Course a little wet in patches (similar to most non-sandbelt courses)...

It should be in really good condition now, with a few days of sun...

11th, 7 iron, straight shot faded slightly on the wind, 1 hop straight in. Made better with a couple of crows players seeing it from the 12th tee box and shouting me afterwards. That story will be the whole side cheering it in when I tell the grandkids.

PAR - kicked off on the 10th

off the tee was fine with the driver. but my 5w which i had hit nicely on tuesday just fell to pieces, all off the heel/hosel....
anyway we get through that 9 and finished all square. should have been a couple up.

back 9 - started off ok and then from the 11th onwards the wheels feel apart. not in dramatic fashion, as in stableford would have scrounged up a point but that dont count in PAR. i dont mind par but amazing how many people really dont like it.
ended up with -6 for the day which is where im at about now

Wirrina Ambrose yesterday, cracking day, esky in the back of the cart - fireball shot after every birdie.

No handicaps, just lowest score wins, we got 5 under - 5 birdies, 1 eagle and 2 bogeys :evil: winner hit 12 under :shock: so we lost the trophy.

All proceeds to Mens Mental Health, cant wait to do it again in March

Now off to Vines for 9 holes tomorrow arvo and then Port Hughes next weekend with the lads :D

Better than I thought it would be, greens slowish but had been cored recently, some nice looking holes but bit boring in patches with only 2 par 5's and most of the par 4's being pretty short
