Pennant at Traralgon today, against Mirboo Nth.
I received 3 shots from my opponent but didn’t need any of them on the specified holes. Won 5&4.
Best pennant win I’ve had for years and took the winnings.People say that nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.

Golf at Dubbo country club.
nice course in country. Course is good and has used for Australian PGA tournament last November.
27 holes complex and played so looked at the 9s and so they play them in different orders at various times and tee positions.42, 43, 39 so not a bad days golf.
driving was good today, nice and straight, iron play a little fat or block right. bunker play reliable
pitching was Ok to 5 to 10 m from holes.
only 1 x3 putt for day, on slow greens(just hadn’t been cut due to wet days).
very enjoyable. day.1 user liked this post.
Stab at Warra yesterday.
Weather was great, so was my golf, for a change.
Four 1-putts out for 14 putts. A 3-putt on 17 but two chip-ins and a solitary 1-point brought in another 14 putts for a 28 putt total. I wish I could do that every time.
Points: three 3s and two 1s for 19 points out.
On the back, two 1-points, three 2-points, two 3-points and the two chip-ins each scored 4 points, for 22 points.
41 point total meant a B grade win, also B grade mystery 6.
It’s about time i had a profitable day.
It has cost me a stroke off my ‘cap.People say that nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.

Progress is man's ability to complicate simplicity.Another stab at Warra today in fine but a little cooler weather.
Unlike Tuesday’s champagne round, today’s was shit. But that’s golf.
After 6 holes I had amassed 3 points (3×1) and 3 wipes. The ship steadied then with 2 points on both 7 and 8 and a 4-point chip-in on 9. Front nine total: 11 points, 15 putts (only one 3-putt)
Back nine was more ‘normal’ . Two 3-putts and two 3-points. Another chip-in helped. Total of 15 putts and 17 points.
End result: 30 putts, 28 points.
My aim for each round is to have more points than putts. Failed today.People say that nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.

Progress is man's ability to complicate simplicity.MM stroke & putting at Beacy.
Drives were crap, fairways were crap putting was mediocre. 34 putts 24 stab points. Drowned two balls off the tee and had an airy from another tee.
It was drizzling before we went, should’ve saved my money and gone home.
But the company was good.People say that nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.

After a couple of poor rounds, I topped it off with a shocker at Yallourn on Monday, just 19 points.
A bit better at Warra yesterday with 29 points and 32 putts.
I need a hip replacement, it’s been giving me curry this last week. Trouble is, I’m on a 4 month waiting list just to see the specialist, then onto the hospital waiting list for an indeterminate wait for the op. I’m on two other hospital waiting lists, one for cancer removal, the other for a prostate re-bore.
But it’s drinks tonight !People say that nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.

Finally arrived in the PRQ ( Peoples Republic of Queensland), to 30 deg days with sunny sky.
very nice indeed. no masks ,no Covid BS, everyone at the caravan park is nice, petrol is a bit cheaper
Caravan park has a nice pool which cooled us off after the drive.
Overall must admit so far it better than home in Virustoria where its cold at moment.McIntyre river is too high and flowing too fast to fish today, but found a nice lake in middle of town to try in Morning.
Golf today at Goondiwindi GC. very nice country course atmosphere.
par 71 ACR 69 slope 113..Hcap 7 today.
Goondawindi has 10 holes on front and 8 on back ..
Think fairway grass and mostly kikuyu, around greens which just grabs the ball on approach shots, came up short at least 5 times until adjusted club and approach shot trajectory,. Not one bunker anywhere on course, but tree lined and several approach shots hit over or around water hazards.played one of my favourite games = scratch par: its good because it lets you know where your game is at moment.
Worst can have is minus 18.. middle tees.
todays score minus 11 (minus 5 , minus 6) so not a bad result, first look at the course. Irons were not crisp today and left at least 6 shots out there due to poor chipping. On 6 holes it took me 3 shots to get up and down from 20m
remedy : practice chipping in caravan park.
sight seeing tomorrow and fishing later in day.
Possible vets game on Friday, but rain is forecast so will see.Scratch par? Does this mean you keep track of how many strokes you score over par?
I think it means that if you don’t par a hole, that’s a minus. Only suited to single figure golfers.
