With R after work. 16 quid each. We got there early and did a bit of chipping practice before the start, We were meant to be off at 4:44pm but no one was there at 4:30 so we went. We were following 2 guys in a buggy who should have kept in front of us easily but didn't. We were followed by a 2 ball who made good progress and often waited for us to get out of the way.
I started off well on the 1st with an easy 5. I had decided to give my 3w a try on the 2nd. The was an error as I finished in the rough to the left, this cost me 2 shots. Back in the bag for the 3w until I get chance to try it on the range. Most of the front 9 was fine and I even managed a par on the 9th which is normally a nightmare for me. On the back 9, my reasonable form continued and I managed to par the easy par 3 12th and managed to get over the lake on the 15th for a change. I was in the lead for most of the game but R just got ahead by 1 with 1 to play and thats how it finished. My score is
click here. Less that 110 is always good for me. I messed up 2 holes, the 2nd due to the 3w and the 14th due to a poor chip that went well over and then went over on the way back.
The weather was very pleasant, the fairways are nice and dry but he greens are quite lumpy. The only problem was the low sun on the last few holes.
Great fun!
