Mark Connolly Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 I can understand why the US picked Justin Thomas. I can't understand why they didn't pick Cam Young 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keyser_soze Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Quick 9 after my holiday this afternoon, 1st time with the new irons, safe to say I'm not overly impressed, very clunky however a good 1/2 club longer than my current set. Another couple of rounds needed before I decide whether to keep them or not, off centre shots definitely not as responsive as my current set of Lynx BB Tours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnside91 Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Royal Aberdeen at the end of September in their open. Views on the course ? and is anyone else playing ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnside91 Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Ludvig Aberg off to an absolute flyer -5 thru 8. Bob off steady at -1 thru 5 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VictorOnopko Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Y Paul turns at -3, Bob at -2... Got to think Aberg would get a pick if he wins this or maybe even just gets a top 5. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have played that Open for last 25 years or so - usually first off at 7.30am but pulled out a couple of weeks ago as doing the Bennachie Hill race in the afternoon. Excellent course and in great condition Not a cheap open - has gone up in price considerably last couple of years.....now £70 but includes a couple of wee sandwiches and a bowl of soup...... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 I stuck Sky Sports Golf on there for some background noise before the coverage starts and they are currently showing the most honking programme full of weirdos I’ve ever seen. A full programme about crowds of guys who dress up like fuds and go to the Ryder Cup. I’m really glad we get this instead of actual golf. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ignoramus Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Finished -2 with a 6 on the last. Not a bad start and certainly not a disaster, although Paul is ominously placed… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The distance was absolutely ridiculous - I was getting 175 yards on the simulator out of a seven iron - but I had hardly any control over them direction wise. Went for Taylormade Stealths in the end which were much easier to keep in a straight line. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to it. off at 11.10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Bob making life difficult for himself. Meronk was 30 at the turn, but Paul hS struggled today and is only a shot ahead of Bob. Bob just inside the cut line though, he's got 2 par 5s to come which he'll have to make count. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Bob wilting a bit as Meronk goes to just one off the lead, Bob got a huge stroke of luck with his drive in 14 flirting with the driving range fence and coming back into play. He couldn't take advantage though and could only par as Meronk and Paul both birdied it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 (edited) Meronk birdies 15 to tie for the lead. Paul gets up and down from the bunker for birdie. Bob hit the green in 2, but had a putt from about 95 feet for eagle, but can't hole his birdie effort. Two pars at the par 5s and right on the cut line.
