With M. First time at Chichester this Year!
Warm up was trip round par 3. We jumped to hole 4 to avoid waiting and finished holes 1 to 3 at the end. This was fun I managed to get nothing worse than a 4 and a few 3's. Thats as good as I can hope for. In the end I beat M by all scoring methods. Its a good warm up but I dont think you can beat hitting a few shots from the range.
After warm up we set off on Tower course at about 1:30 ish. There was a kid and his dad in front and no one behind. The kid and dad abandoned after 7 or so holes. We then followed a 2 ball who made better progress than we did so not a lot of hanging about.
The weather was great and we had some problems as the sun got lower on the last few holes.
I set off well but had a shock on the 3rd when I hit a ball into the water (have not done that for a while). Also had a couple of other nightmare holes. One on 8th over water again and the other on the long par 5 coming back to the clubhouse. M was winning by 4 with 3 to go so I had only pride to play for on the last holes. Anyway this was good enough and I lost by 1 hole. Thats golf!
M played well especially on the first 9 and hit some good fairways with his driver. After some poor tee shots I managed to do good recovery on some holes so its not all bad.
I forgot the trophy so thats bad...
Fun!
