dummiesoot 16,037 Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Good score round there. Must have managed to keep clear of their bunkers.Played blue tees this morning swing was not good in plenty of bunkers. Decided with two to play to hit three wood off the tee and had two excellent birdie chances. So not all bad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFC RYAN 2,967 Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Had a 67 at wishaw awful front 9 got it together the back 9 and came back in 37 so happy with that hopefully another little cut. Hit the ball very well just poor putting greens very slow compared to what am used too hopefully get something back for that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iandoc1975 1,265 Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 I've had mine for 2 years and today I shot a 71. Stick with them as they won't let you down Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan_1 1,136 Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Shot my joint best round the other day, nothing special but I should have beat it but got extremely unlucky on the 17th where my pitch landed on the green took a horrible bounce, and it shot over the back into long grass next to a fence where I lost my ball and took a 7. Without the bounce would have been looking at par and proable three shots better off. Seem to score better the more I leave the driver in the bag.

Iandoc1975 1,265 Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 I played a wee game with my mate the day. Gave him 6 strokes too. I shook hands with him on the 12th as he was gash and ended up winning by 15 holes. 71 matched my best score but I know I can do a level par.
