Hello to you all...I played alone for the first time in my golf tour today. I thought it was going to be lonely however it wasn't. I had a really enjoyable relaxed round of golf walking around without a care in the world! The weather forecast was again terrible but when I woke at 7.30 there wasn't a cloud in the sky! A few clouds did emerge in the morning before I reached the golf club and there was a brisk breeze but it was sunny for most of the day! This was the 1/3 point of my tour and now I am starting to play some consistent golf! Today despite the wind I was driving the ball as straight as I have done. Several of the holes were down wind which was nice but some were into the wind which was very testing as the wind was as strong as I have experienced on the tour so far! I started on the 10th hole due to a seniors competition off the 1st and got that little white ball in the hole in 5 shots which Matt will tell is very reasonable considering the dreaded 1st tee nerves I suffer from! The rest of the round was very steady and did some heavy scoring on the two hardest holes...one of which was a downwind par 5 which I birdied! I also chipped in at the par 3 13th for a two so two birdies is very pleasing! The round did go down hill a touch at the end. The final two holes which were actually the 8th and 9th were directly into the wind so playing a lot longer! I finished the round in 86 shots which is my best to date. I also managed to smash one of drives onto the 100yard marker on the fairway! the photo is just above this blog!
Seeing as it's a third of the way through the tour here is an update of my scores so far...
