lichtie23 Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Here I am picking out my recent hole-in-one (second). 121m slightly uphill, slight breeze against at the Maungakeikei Golf Club. I hit a three-quarter seven iron, landed 6 feet away and rolled in. Saw it all the way. [emoji41]Cheers everybody. [emoji3]Well played Bryce 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it’s not quite out of reach, just need a couple of good rounds and maybe a new 50deg wedge as my current cap from PW to SW isn’t great. In the first Quest for Single Figures update, and my first card of the season. I'm now down to 11.0 after a 0.6 cut. Was originally 10.8 but the CSS was re-adjusted down to 73 from 74. Bitter sweet as well with 3 birdies and 4 double bogeys, including two 3putts and a 4 putt. Happy to get a cut the first round of the season and feel like I'm hitting the ball well so will see how we get on on Saturday then Gleneagles on Sunday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I`m lucky enough to have had a couple. 7th hole at Aberdour and 13th at Scotscraig. Used the same club (6 iron) on both occasions. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An awful 25 stableford points in first one but played much better for 36 points yesterday. Somewhat frustrating that I 3 putted the first two greens but balanced this with some good scrambling. Consistent stuff in that I got points on every hole and had 18 points each nine. Double bogied the first but 10 pars and 7 bogies so steady but unspectacular. Sitting somewhat uncomfortably at 9.4 so hanging on to single figures just. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

expatowner Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Anyone else enjoying putting with the flag in?I’ve been putting with the flag in since December (3 or 4 rounds a week) and had the first “bounce-off” yesterday. Compared to the huge number that “bounce-in” I would say the change had helped my scores by 2 or 3 per round. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Watched the end of the RBC Heritage tourney on the PGA Tour last night, with CT Pan becoming only the second player from Chinese Taipei to win on tour. He was certainly helped by the final pairing completely shitting the bed. Poulter finished with a 2 over final round, but overnight leader Dustin Johnson had a mare, going +6 and at one point shipping 7 shots in 5 holes on the back 9. He has made a hash of closing tourneys out a few times lately. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm up to 9.5 so no longer single figures. Next challenge is to get back down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out in 38 which included a birdie 2 so some cash for that. Back in 42 despite double bogies on 10 and 11. Total of 30 putts with only one 3 putt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Grant Forrest finished comfortably inside the top 10 and David Law made a bit of a return to form with a top 20 at the Trophee Hassan. More good form from the rookies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
