Was a bit of a funny old round today. Mix of really good and really bad. Started really bad. 2 double bogeys.
Then pulled out some good holes to get out in 42. Started the back 9 well with a tap in par. Then stuck in a double bogey after a failed bunker escape. Then rolled off 5 straight pars. Then finished bogey, bogey. 18 should have been par but I duffed a 3 footer. So came back in 40 for an 82. 1 under handicap.
Pretty tidy back 9.
Changed my putting slightly after watching a today's golder putting tip. I rotated my left hand towards the left slightly so the back of my left hand was pointing towards the hole. This has the effect of straitening out the left arm and got me swinging much straighter.
The result. Only 28 putts !!
Pretty much most of my game is coming together now. Drove the ball ok, irons still good, pitching and chipping spot on and putted as well as I have for ages. Just a few silly mistakes cost me a sub-80 round today.
Bit of practice this week and a comp on Sunday. Might try to get out for a couple of 9's during the week as well.
