51 days to go!

Amazing Decadence..... Golf provided as a service..... Delicious food...... good laugh with new friends...... my golf trip of a lifetime was the League to Dubai finals at the end of last year.

There are 51 days to go until entries close and the competition starts.

Get your entries in and try and stop me from taking your place at the finals again this year. I've had a taste and I NEED more!
The League to Dubai website is where you can find out more.

Some progress ....... finally!

I had another lesson with Paul Thomas during the week where we worked on improving my posture allowing me to stay connected and reducing my tendency to 'come over the top'. I also discovered while I was at the range on Thursday,  that locking my left arm straight helps too.
It's always a bit difficult to implement changes on the course but I manged to do a fairly good job of it today.
After a par/par start, I carded an 8 (!@#@!!) On the par 4 3rd hole! Not happy Jan!
I managed to get my head sorted by the next hole and carded a par on the downhill par3 over the pond.
My round did require quite a bit of scrambling which overall I did pretty well and I was very pleased with my putting.
I hit 12 pars, 4 doubles or worse and 2 bogeys.
I had a few squiffy shots and a couple of severe 'pulls' but overall I was quite chuffed to have signed my scorecard for a very respectable 81 (nett 69)
Less mistakes and more birdies next time!
