This should have been titled "frozen things".
It started off badly with the range balls frozen so we got 2 balls each for our 1 pound.
This was sorted by the pro at Dummer. We were given 2 quid credit and the machine duly let us have a few more balls.
We set off behind a 4 ball and were followed by 2 ball. It was very cold. On the journey there the temp was 0 as we arrived at Dummer it dropped to -1. I set off badly but M was on a roll.
M went very well until we saw his orange ball roll into a bunker. When we got there the ball was no where to be found. Spooky? Rabbits were the number 1 suspect.
This was an experience for me I needed gloves between every shot and as we progressed the cold got colder. There was also a strong wind which made us feel the chill factor and it stopped a few balls dead in the air.
After the 9th, the leading and following golfers dropped out so we knew it was tough.
I put on my last layer but it made little difference.
We had a laugh when we came to try the Snickers bars. They almost broke our teeth as they were frozen. The strange thing was the frozen greens which somehow managed to freeze my putter.
On the whole this was tough. I never did a comfortable swing and was glad to finish.
That's not saying I did not enjoy it. Just more difficult than usual. M won by all scoring methods. I will post results soon.
