Either way Bob needs a good day at the office. Hopefully both Scots make it through. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm out of the house today so won't see the early coverage but they were saying yesterday that likely to be ball in hand again today so low scoring predicted 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Fair play to Lairdy, has this guy ever missed a cut in his entire life!? Just goes about his business quietly and consistently. As for Bob, I really thought he’d have found his feet by now. Him and Detry performed admirably last week and I thought his wee break had sorted him out, but another missed cut on a getable course is pretty poor stuff and he looks miles off the top 50 at the minute. Is his tour card for 2 years or just the 1? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is his tour card for 2 years or just the 1? Just 1 year, he needs to be making more cuts and picking up more points than he is at the moment. He's making plenty of birdies, it's the bogeys that are killing him. It's not hard to see where he needs to improve, he's 101st in approach play and 157th in putting. The chart shows how he compares to Laird. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funky_nomad Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Well, it's early May, the courses are firming up nicely, preferred lies have been binned, shirt sleeves were the order of the day yesterday afternoon, and - after "defending" 5 good counting scores in the first 3 weeks of the season - my HI has ballooned from 4.9 to 6.2 Great days... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithers Jones Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Out of interest, how many medal cards do you all post over the season? I felt like I played most Saturdays last season from April to the end of September but it appears I only played in 12 handicap counters which doesn't seem like many. The rest was taken up with Scrambles, pairs, other team comps etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Angelo Barksdale Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 I reckon I usually have around 25-30 scoring rounds per year, although I play on a links that's in decent nick all year round. Game is in the shitter atm though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually around 35-40, but I did manage over 50 a few years back when I was unemployed over a summer and played 36 holes pretty much every Wednesday and Saturday during BST. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 (edited) Sore one for Ben Kohles just there. One ahead going up the last and he was the only player in the field to bogey it, turning a one shot lead into a one shot deficit just like that.

Due to my Petershill commitments I only really get to play Saturdays during the close season, so it's a very short season competition wise. I seldom bother putting general play scores in.
