Saturday was the December Turkey Trot Stableford comp at Coed-y-Mwstwr golf club, what a disappointing round of golf! I had to play my 3rd shot from the tee far too many times (eight penalty drops!!!). If those 3rd's were my first shot, my round would have been much better than 24 stableford points.
I had a spare token for some balls at the driving range so I popped to the range before the comp. I was actually hitting the ball reasonably well but that form stayed in the car and didn't come out to play on the course.
I think I tried too hard from the tee. The nice relaxed, rhythmical swing I had found was gone.
I lost so many balls on Saturday that I might need to buy some more this week!!
I could make all sorts of excuses about the playing conditions ('twas a bit boggy, a little breezy and raining at times) but the long and short of it is: I played poorly and got tense and aggravated. My putting was pretty poor too but one positive was my chipping and pitching. I was pretty pleased with that aspect of the round.
Congrats to Andy Hill with yet another win!!
Thanks to Rich, Jerry and Mart for the round.
Next week is a new week and a new comp.
