Slat's Journal

OK Slats...

Must be me having a "Blonde Moment"....

But, I don't think I read know what you actually scored for the round...

Did I...????

Cheers

trust you to ask
it was stableford so you have to pick up when you have run out of strokes
i shot 51 for the 9 holes i completed for 14 points which is pathetic

normal service is resumed!
played 18 tonight shot 90 of the comp tees nett -3 under par
hit driver well again but irons a lot more solid thank god

Ian,

Hang in ther man! I viewed your swing before and can not see why you cant achieve what you want. just work on the mental attitude. Go back to the days when you first took a club in your hand and compare to where you are now. Just do it!!!

Glad "someone" trusts me....!!!

Good to hear the improvement came after the poor round.

For me, I will suggest there were some "Competition Virgin" nerves at play there Slats. Once you become an "Old Pro" and get used to feeling you belong at the Club, your scores will improve.

Until of course "something" (yes, thats a much used generic golfing term!!) goes wrong with your game and you can't score well for pounds or peanuts...

Bottom line, you've paid your membership subs, you pay your daily comp fees, you have a valid handicap and you have golf clubs and a want to swing them, for me this gives you as much right to be out on course in the competition as the life member, the club secretary and the lady who runs the kiosk who make up your fourball.

Feel you belong, trust your game and enjoy yourself...

"Here endeth the lesson...."

Cheers

Yes Slats, I'm almost certain you will......

Cheers

How can you hit 100% of FIR at ~250yds but only score on 9 holes?!
Sounds like you were trying to play past your ability (going for par 4 greens in 2 when you shouldnt)?

hi greeboman
that wasnt the case at all.
i just couldnt hit any irons shots
think i just got too tense and was hitting a lot of thin and fat shots.
i know my ability and i play to it thats why i shot a 90 last night if the putts had dropped it could have been mid 80's

Thinking on the title to this thread, should that not be "Thank Cod"
