Victorian Posted May 22, 2017 Author Share Posted May 22, 2017 Well the team we let off the hook in the Dispatch won their 2nd round game. We 100% should have won but threw it away. The two match aggregate score foursomes format can turn a match so quickly it can make your head spin. When you look back you realise that, despite winning our tie, we're as much at fault as the pair who lost. You have to remember it's not a conventional format of only having to win. We lost touch with the score in the other game and when we got an update, they're 3 or 4 holes worse off than the last update. We would have stood a fair chance against the next team and could have been looking forward to a 3rd round tie tomorrow. The regrets can gnaw away at you.

hmfc_liam06 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Sare yin that!!!! Tell me about it! 21 point back 9, actually 24 points from 9-18. Played the 1st and 8th poorly and deserved the 0 pointers but the 7th hole was gutting. Hit a nice wedge into the green, landed short of the pin and it took a horrendous skip off the green and ended up landing out of bounds which is tight to the green.

Victorian Posted May 27, 2017 Author Share Posted May 27, 2017 (edited) Edzell was superb. A challenging but fair and playable course. Lots of fairway bunkers you need to plot around and some tight in out of bounds areas. Big greens with lots of run offs. A great blend of 3s, 5s, long and shorter 4s. 81-7=74 which was T1 in the gross and T3 in the nett. A few daft shots shipped but holed a few longish putts.

SectionG Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 37 points today with an NR, 2 lost balls on the same hole. Still it'll be 0.2 off, so not all bad. Greens were ridiculously slow, think greenkeeper has been scared to cut them with the nice 2 days we had, absolute joke that we get great conditions for once and the greens were poor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sten Guns Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Went out in 38 on Saturday. Which equated to 20 stableford points. Started the back 9 with a 4,5,4....... but 13th hole onwards complete and utter meltdown. Totally blew up the final 6 holes because I knew I was on a score, kept wonder how much I could get cut. Went mega defensive and cagey just trying to close out without errors. Big mistake. Ended up going up 0.1 with an NR. Golf is such a head **** man.

Irufushi Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 I shot 70, (level par) away at Forres today, and I'm still disappointed with my round, was -2 with 3 to play. Missed 3 and 5 footers on 16 and 18 for par. Hit good putts, rolled nicely but both burned the edge. Should hopefully be off a 3 handicap now though 40 points.

Ray Gin Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 81 today. Would have matched my PB if I didn't take 3 shots to get out of a bunker. 21 putts on the front 9 also didn't do me any favours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hmfc_liam06 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Finally, a cut!! Net 63 CSS 67 so looking at a 1.6 cut. Equates to 41 points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went out in +7 and knew if I got round the back 9 with bogey golf I'd be in for a big cut. Went totally conservative and kept putting myself into danger, should have just approached it in the same manner as I had on the front 9. Got a total stroke of luck on 16. It's a blind tee shot, massive slice, hit a tree! Luckily for me, the group on 18 saw it and pointed it out to me, it was in a place I'd have never thought about looking!

I'm playing around my handicap every time I play a medal round, but feel there's a score there. Just the few stupid mistakes every time. Don't think this'll be your last cut of the year, just play one hole at a time, and forget about how you're doing and you've a good chance.

I've had 4 buffer zones in a row and like you felt something was coming but daft mistakes prevented it. Good advice as well, I think because I've been so close but not quite putting it together it played on my mind on the back 9. Hopefully now I can settle down a bit in rounds knowing the monkey is off my back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
