The course was in good shape, the greens were a bit less bumpy (I managed to avoid the bunkers so can't really comment).
On the second I had another nice tee shot (good for the 2nd hole) again I went over the back and it cost me the hole. A fairly uneventful first 9 left us all square. A pity I made a mess of the 8th as usual. Must try a 9i next time.
On the back 9 I played a bit better which has been a recent pattern. I was pleased to get over the pond ok with a 4i even though it was a bit right, However R played really well on a few holes and with 2 to play R was 2 up. Not deterred I concentrated and won the last 2 forcing a draw! Thats 2 draws in 1 week. We finished in about 3.5 hours which was slow considering we had no one infront or behind.

My putting was +2 even though it included 3*3 putts. I forgot to mention the flukey hole from a chip on the 7th giving me an unusual par. I made 7 proper golf scores including pars on 7th, 15th and 18th. A pity I messed up the easy 6th with poor chipping and putting. The 8th needs a different approach next time and the 9th would have been ok except for a duff up he hill and a 3 putt. I was just over the 100 but could have been at least a couple better on another day. Summer golf is easier than winter golf! No balls lost which is always good.
