Guest honestrae95 Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 Played brilliant yesterday and I thought I could maybe post a score (was -5 nett after 14 holes) then at the 15th, I took a 9 at a par 5. Lost my head the next two holes and took two double bogeys before a par at the last. Absolutely gutted, as I was hitting the ball great. Ach well, shit happens! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winaukee Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 Played the Aberdour Open today and was excellent for 15 holes and then 3 stupid holes probably cost me the competition. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted July 14, 2013 Author Share Posted July 14, 2013 Broke 100 for the first time in a medal today, bang on 99. Gutted as I had a 10 at the first and three 7s on my card. Was three over my handicap for the front nine, three under my handicap for the back nine. Don't think I'll get cut though as our CSS is usually 70, if it was 71 (par) then I'd be looking at my first ever cut. Nope, no cut for me. Adjusted score was 98, CSS 70. A lot of positives to take so far this summer, though. Before the summer I was averaging one or two full rounds a week and my average score would have been somewhere about 105-110. I've played six bounce games so far and have averaged 101.5 so far, with an average of 107 in medals. Will keep plugging away as I can definitely see signs of improvement. In my last five rounds I've beaten my handicap on the back nine. But there are always a couple of troublesome holes for me on the front nine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 Buffer zone again for me today. Happy that I'm not shooting nightmare scores of 110+ and going up 0.1 each time but I'd like to get the odd bad hole out the way and start coming down! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Distant Doonhamer Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 In the buffer zone for what must be 4th successive time. Great up and down from sand (not my strength) at 17th then solid par down the last. Hadn`t played for a couple of weeks so reasonably happy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost my head the next two holes and took two double bogeys before a par at the last. Absolutely gutted, as I was hitting the ball great. Ach well, shit happens! Sounds a bit like my round in the championship qualifying on Sat. Was rolling along great then took 4 to get out the bunker on the short par 3 16th, dropping 6 shots over the last 4 holes for a 77. However, Saturday (plus the stableford adjustment for the 16th) got me down to 8.4 and I knocked another 0.2 off with a 76 last night, even though I failed to hole a putt all night and dropped 5 shots over the middle 4 holes. If only I could concentrate for a whole round... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Distant Doonhamer Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 (edited) Brought my run of buffer zone finishes to an end today. Three putted the first 3 greens, dropping 10 shots in the first 5 holes. Out in 47, back in 41. Played the last 6 holes in one over to at least manage to break 90. Up to 9.4 and ever closer to losing single figure status. Edited July 20, 2013 by Distant Doonhamer 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was rolling along great then took 4 to get out the bunker on the short par 3 16th, dropping 6 shots over the last 4 holes for a 77 Had the second round of the championship qualifying on Saturday and - having made the last 16 last year - sadly missed out. Started with a birdie and parred the four long par 4s but 4 double bogeys, including one at the last, saw me shoot a 79 and miss out by 3 shots overall. Looks like taking 4 to get out that bunker last week was rather costly! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
