Club Champs Day 1

Well that didn't go as planned.

Driving was absolutely dreadful. Loads of huge slices right.

Started badly. Took a triple bogey 7 on the 1st, and missed an 18 inch putt. Double bogeyed the 2nd after another teeshot right.

Then got a good par on the par 3 3rd.

lost a ball with a way right tee-shot on the 4th. But managed to get away with a double bogey 6.

Then strung a few holes together to get me back into it. Par, Birdy, Par, Par. Then Double bogeyed the par 3 9th. To go out in 42. So could have been better. Could also have been a lot worse !!!!

Back 9 started ok. Great drive down the 10th then shanked an easy 8i. Chip and a couple of putts and get away with a bogey.

Another double bogey on the 12 after hitting sand off the tee, then again on my approach shot to the green.

Then came the par 3 12th. This hole is going to stick in my memory for a long time. Hit an ok teeshot into the left hand bunker. Then flew the green into the bunker on the other side. No sand under the ball and the club just bounced into the ball. Then take 3 to get out. And carded a 7.

That's it my round was over. No coming back from that.

Bogeyed 13, double bogey 14 after having to hit balls from the tee after slicing my first two into the deep rough. But found them. So could have been even worse.

Par, Par then double,double. For a 48 back 9. 90 net 78. 7 shots over par and 13 shots off the lead when I left the club.

I think the thing that really pissed me off is that I really fought hard to get myself back into it and then just threw it away on the 12th.

My driving was probably the worse it's been in a long long time. Again after driving really well for the past couple of weeks.

Oh well. I'll be out early-ish tomorrow I guess with the other high scores. At least that will give me an afternoon to do other stuff.

This is why God Hates Golfers !!! He giveth and he taketh away.
