Struggled in the past with condition of greens but have now got that sorted. Well worth a visit in my opinion. Enjoy. Nice one. Definitely another off the bucket list. Aiming to play a good few quality courses during the off season. Hopefully we have a pretty mild winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samuel Camazzola Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 (edited) Fast start from Tiger at The BMW. - 6 after nine holes - out in 29! The old putter is back in the bag. ...

Irufushi Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Played a bounce game tonight with my mate, went out in 29! -5 , started with 4 straight birdies, then birdied the 6th. Walked onto the 10th and was 5 off the tee ? managed a 7 though . Came back in +4. ?♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsmak Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 72 Scratch today and walked off the course raging with myself. Only holed 1 putt longer than 4 foot and 3 putted 4 times, including the last. Playing such good golf but when you miss a 3 foot putt on the last for a level par 71 in a big competition, and are now in 2nd place on the inward 9... O well - next week!

Despite a -2 round today, putting was my downfall, could have been so much more. Inside 6 foot was spot on but anything over was appalling. 15 footers and leaving myself 5 or 6 foot short!

A joy to play on. A few folk have said they prefer the King's and Queen's so I'll need to give them a shot. I played Burntisland for the first time recently. Quite quirky and not the longest but still enjoyable. The tees were a bit rutted and the fairways a touch on the long side. The greens had been hollow-tined and cored which was a bit disappointing as it seemed quite early to carry this work out. Perhaps the wet spell of weather brought it forward.

A couple of the guys who have the You Tube channels tested and reviewed this recently and raved about its performance. Up against the market leaders (Callaway, TM) they said the numbers were up there if not better. The paintwork on the crown is classy too.

Aye, I’ve seen them , well the rick shiels and crossfield ones anyway. Looks good, I still use the original xhot driver, be interesting to see if I notice any difference, xhot must be around 6 years old I’d imagine.

It's actually been a disappointing year for me in terms of new or elite courses played. Need to rectify that over the winter. Stumbled on a bit of form the now, hit a 65 last Thurs, 66 on Sunday and then 63 tonight. Should get a 1.2 cut and down to 17.5. Delighted.

hmfc_liam06 Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Liberton cracking as usual. Despite the rain, the greens were still running very quick. 39 points not enough to get the win with the bandits in my society Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victorian Posted September 16, 2018 Author Share Posted September 16, 2018 Played the whole medal season so far without anything worse than double bogey. Then managed to smash that by having a quad-bogey 8 yesterday. Also bogeys at 4 of the easier holes. Missed the buffer by 1, naturally.

Was it yourself that had said they'd started running and it had a positive effect on their game? I've been doing a bit more exercise lately and I've seen an upturn in the golf, whether or not it's a coincidence I don't know but I do seem to be lasting the round better, not flagging come 15/16. My run of cuts come to a halt yesterday with a net level par round. Happy enough with that though considering I've been chopped 2 strokes over the last 2 weeks.
