Wed 30 April 2014 - 18 Holes at Paultons

The one where we invented half shot golf!

With R after work. The only nice day this week. We were following a 4 ball. They were playing off white tees but seemed to get into a lot of trouble. Still we didn't go too slow. We were followed by 2 players and they nearly hit us on the 7th tee with no shout or apology.

I set off playing c%^p as if the practice had made things worse. After a couple of holes I realised that I was doing a straight backswing, never a good thing for me. Anyway I recovered and played OK over the middle set of holes. In the end it was my turn to win by 1 hole. I only messed up 3 holes. The 2nd as I went left from the tee and stayed there. On the 3rd I 3 putt. And on the last I lost concentration and was in trouble from the tee. I managed 2 pars on the 3's on the back 9. (Always good if I get over the lake .. just!)

This was the game when we discussed the possibility of playing with half shots for those not on the fairway, on the green or 2 putts. Maybe this would show some underlying trends.. perhaps try it on the website?

As usual great fun!
