Want to see if i can pick up 2nd hand set somewhere. Nice irons Guy I play with used to use them. He got rid as his ball flight was too high with them. Everyone is different with their irons I suppose. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiviGer 648 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Medal tonight, everyone playing off the red tees, will make things interesting! Women get an extra 6 shots on the men. Not sure if there are 6 shots of a difference between the white and red tees. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cushynumber 25,178 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 its just not happening at the moment. Im going through the motions. Theres nothing really wrong, but nothing right either. A typical 6 holes for me would be something like this Lip out a 4 ft putt for a bogey Easy par On in regulation and 3 putt for bogey Easy Par Bunker in 2 splash out and 2 putt for bogey easy par Theres no one part of my game I can say "thats the problem" - my putting could improve but whos couldnt? Its soul destroying at the moment. Maybe its just a concentration thing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiviGer 648 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Played 9 holes tonight. Wind was mental! Hit a full blooded driver in to a 160 yard par three . Was about only about 5 yard through the green! Complete waste of time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GovanFrontSince96 315 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Played on Wednesday through some appalling conditions and scored a Nett 69 1 under. Get the results in today, finished 3rd in my division, 30 players out of 91 NR and only 16 finished nett par or under. CSS was still 69 so no cut, an absolute joke.

cushynumber 25,178 Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 I played 18 holes with the club champion the other night and as you do, couldn't help compare his game to mine. In terms of driving were actually relatively even - he was straighter and longer over the piece - but it wasn't a mega difference. However, in terms of approach shots, our respective game was night and day. i was hitting the green - but he was inside 6 ft on almost every hole. This made his first putt a good birdie opportunity on almost every hole. Where as I was lagging up or sometimes I had missed the green and was pitching on. I subsequently leak shots over the 18 where he is par or birdie. He bangs in a gross 68 and i am gross 80. It was a salutary lesson in approach play.

I play off 9 I know a guy off 1 when I am driving it well I am close to him with in about 5-10 yards but his second shot is so much better than mine he's always on the green when am not and if he isn't he is up and down 9 times out of 10. Went to Drumpellier today the pro said it was wet but wasn't as wet as he was making it out to be it was in patches, cracking course played decent didn't really sink a putt but for the course being in Coatbridge you wouldn't think it was there. Union Jack flying outside it, blue fence, green keepers wearing blue tops. Also the yardage markers red for 100, white for 150 and blue for 200 yards. No many members wear green tops either my kind of club tbh. geneva_ger and cushynumber 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
