RFC RYAN 2,967 Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 A nett 70 today and got a fiver back for yesterday's 36 points. Game feeling good had two 7s on my card also. Big competition next Sunday so hoping for a low one there. Might go up and practice my short game tomorrow but fear I will just hit balls and not really focus on anything.

Let the club do the work and accelerate through the ball don't quit.Set targets for distance from the hole percentages it will reduce boredom level of practise.You still need to get lessons.

Revolt 44 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 got put out of the doubles matchplay comp we were leading from the first to the 14th and then yours truly pumped one into the trees on 14 & 15 to never recover :/ to be fair all the holes we won were down to me anyway so dont feel too bad about fucking it up in the end! chipped to 3 feet on the first to take the hole and after they knocked it to 6" on the second I pitched it right into the cup from 30 yards to go 2 up...... We should have ran off with it from there but failed to put the foot down, always next year Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFC RYAN 2,967 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Had a 70 today my putting was awful 3 putt galore usually my putting is decent but greens getting faster, getting pretty consistent with my scoring and feel I am leaving shots on the course so pretty happy the now.

Looking at that Mark Crossfields videos AP1s, Mizuno Ezees and Ping G25 were the clubs he suggested for forgiveness. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFC RYAN 2,967 Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 What will that get your handicap down to? Good score.Level par is 71 a think and the standard scratch was sitting on 70 a think so what do they say 0.3 a shot is it might be down to about 16 or something.
