    Stab at Warra today.
    20/19 for 39 points.
    No wipes, one 3-putt, eleven 1-putts (had some great approach shots).
    Ten pars, three doubles.

    I wanted my handicap to go back up, but this won’t help. Bound to lose another stroke. Dammit !!!
    This will put 7 flags in my last 10.

    It looks like I’ve won A grade.

    4BBB stab at Warra today.
    20 out, 21 back, same as the other pair we played with.

    Well down the pecking order, 54 is currently winning (54 !?!? OMFG).
    We probably won’t even get a ball.

    I checked again and that 54 has been ‘recalculated’ to 48, and they’re losing on countback.

    Stab at Warra today.
    One wipe, four 1-putts, no 3-putts.
    19 out, 17 back for 36 points. Might get a ball DTL.
    It’s bound to cost me a few more points off my ‘cap which is supposed to be going back out. Dammit !

    Goldy 16.4/15.5/15.0

    Goldy 15.5/15.5/15.0

    Damn fine round sir..

    Thanks chief. 2 rounds actually. I’d drifted out to 16.8…had 38 yesterday to get to 16.2, another 38 today to get to 15.5.

    I’m just a bit slack on the whole “update the list” thing.

    We’re supposed to update it, are we?
    I thought it was just a goal.

    MM stroke @ Warra today.
    Although I had five pars, I also had a 6, a 7 and two 8s. Five 1-putts and no 3-putts didn’t help either.
    Nett 78.

    Have I mentioned that I like stroke about as much as I like playing in the rain? No, it didn’t rain today.

    Pennant match at Beacy today.
    Drove 110kms for a washout.

    Heard of a phone?

    And just how would a phone have helped?
    The decision to declare a washout and share points with the opposing team was only made 10 minutes before tee-off.
    We had waited for the pro to assess whether he thought the course was playable – he went for a drive around then declared it playable. The team captains disagreed.

    I forgot to mention that I had to arise @ 5:30 to be there on time. A real WOFTAM.

    I have some work to do to get out to 16.5 by mid-year.
    Bloody handicap keeps going the wrong way.

    Both – impressing and depressing. Depending on viewpoint.

    Some idiot sent the rain too far south. We don’t need it here.

    Par+ at Warra today.
    Did the front nine for nothing but dropped one on the back. Only the high handicappers have a chance at a double-plus, when I last looked +9 was leading. My measly -1 had me a l-o-n-g way from the top.

    Only two 1-putts and also a 3-putt. I even had a putt hit the top of the hole liner and the ball bounced right back at me.

    Stab at Warra today.
    A bit of a change from Tues. Still no 3-putts or wipes, but eleven 1-putts. I think that’s my best putting round ever.
    20/20 for 40 points. Won the day.

    Nice win, shame you might drop a shot though. Means you will now have to sandbag for a couple of weeks.

    MM, stroke & putting at Beacy today. We also keep track of stab points.
    Nett 71, 36 points, 31 putts. No stab wipes but did have one 3-putt.

    Yes Commish, lost a shot and I think another one today. I have a HEAP of sandbagging to do. It’s a bummer!
