First game today since end of September. Felt good to be swinging the clubs again.
29pts off The Blues at home with 4 wipes.
Birdie on the 15th after the 7w of godness landed pin high and stopped from about 140m.
Putting was good and the rest was about what I expected after 3 months.
A bit sore but looking forward to the next game already.Glad to hear that you’re back in the game, Mick

Progress is man's ability to complicate simplicity.MM (stroke/putting) with Olinda GC @ Beacy (Hills front, Lakes) yesterday.
Started slowly with 6 stab points on opening 6 holes, then 9 points on next 3.
Once we hit the Lakes, shit happened. I had a Bo Derek on hole 20 and followed that with a nasty dozen on hole 22 (2 into the drink).
End result was a nett 89 off 16: played to 25.Today was the Garfield Plate, again playing off 16.
Highlights: no wipes, no 3-putts.
Lowlights: no 3-points, heaps of 1-points, total 26 points.As for finding a better home for this thread, none of the others seem any more relevant. I’ve asked madam and await a response.

Progress is man's ability to complicate simplicity.It used to be simple. All you needed was your GA index and the slope, a quick calc and you have your playing ‘cap.
From the end of Jan, you will also need the scratch rating and the par. In addition, they have moved the 7% discount from your index to the aforementioned playing ‘cap.
I might have to knock up a little app for that.

Progress is man's ability to complicate simplicity.In any case, here’s my report of today’s effort.
After two 13 point halves on Tues, I opened with 14 points on the front and followed up with 20 points on the back nine.
No 3-putts, but four 1-putts (3 on the back).People say that nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.

Good thought, now stick it in the Practice Range where it belongs.
But it’s not practice, it’s playing.
If madam thinks it should be moved, I won’t object.Perhaps the front page needs better guidance ????

Why not, it’s the clubhouse deck?

Because the weather changes four times a day and we have trouble keeping up with it.
Lovely today, stinking hot tomorrow, cool again the day after.

This time, I’ve copied my ISG post:

Round 2 (actually became rnd 1 when the original rnd 1 was cancelled last week due to very inclement weather) of clubbies today. Top 8 in each grade goes into playoffs. It was also MM.
I was a mile down the list for medal when I looked, but it seems I’m into the C grade playoffs with a 94 gross (nett 75).
So, another round of golf tomorrow. Nearly every day. Also booked in for Mon and Tues.

A chalk and cheese round.
Abysmal front nine with 5 losses and only one win: -4 at the turn. I later check my stab equivalent score for that nine and came up with just 9 points. No wonder I was four down.
Back nine was a turnaround. I lost the 10th (beaten by a par) to go 5 down with 8 to go. Not looking good.
But then I had a string of pars and finished on the 18th with 2 up. Back nine stab equivalent was 23 points.
Semi final next Sat. against a young buck who reportedly can outdrive me by 100m. If he hits them straight, I’m gone.People say that nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.

It does make it a lot easier being against the choppers.

Hopefully I’ll get a patch of good luck, I think I have earned itInteresting that some peanut has transcribed my post from ISG and added his own ‘flavour’ to what I posted.
So, just be aware that the real OB is OldBogey, not the peanut calling himself Old Bogey.I’d bet it’s Max but I have no proof, yet.
They say imitation is the highest form of flattery, but seriously what is the point of trying to be me on the internet.
You are a sad man, Max just give it up. It’s too obvious
I really don’t understand why anyone (Max or another) would even bother trying to copy me.
It’s not even funny.People say that nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.
