I may come last this week, but at least I look the part! I ended up aiming about 4 feet further left and holed it for par! đ Grinding! Feel your pain some really questionable pins out there, playing shite myself, round 3 six birdies but still shot 5 over par. Sums it up for me this week.

-2 final round(6 birdies,2 bogeys,double)
That double really stings. Sitting at -3 and feeling optimistic I about drove the short par 4 8th, but missed greenside. Then my short approach rolls off twice. Then I duff the severe uphill chip and couldn't make the bogey. Finally got it back to -3 with a nice birdie on 17, but then 3 putted 18 to give it back.
Eddies looming at -9 thru 3 so I feel like that may not be enough now.
Nonetheless a strong showing and probably my best putting performance in a while. I never grinded out so many 10 ft par saves in my life lol. Kept the 3 putts to 4.17% for the week and scrambled pretty decent. Didn't try to overpower the course and played smart other than that darn 8th hole.
-12 overall (-1,-4,-5,-2)

Round 1 (4 birdies, 8 bogeys) +4 Best 4 over round I may have ever played. Bogeyed the first 4 holes, each one had a chance at being a par. Then I flopped one in for birdie on 5 which lead to a six hole stretch of -2 gawlf. Last 7 holes were +2 but did birdie the last to end on a positive note. Slim lead over JosiaDB, nipping at the heels of hammers1man. LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Onward!

Round 2 (5 birdies, 5 bogeys, 1 double) +2 "Mazing how different the course plays with less wind. DID start with a stooooooopid double, but to shoot even the rest of the way? Very happy with that and another closing birdie (an 18 foot sidewinding downhiller). Maintained my 3 shot advantage on JosiaDB (nice shooting) but I'm feelin' for hammers1man, he pulled a Vandelay! Got a charging Tuffguts nipping at my heels and I can barely see those pack leaders woody2718 and mcbogga. Moving Day, here we goooooooooo. Onward!

I think I shall be last this week. Two rage-induced 11s at 16 and 18 will sink me. My approaches were crap all round and my putting was woefully inadequate. Iâll finish the tourney, but my stats and handicap will take a serious hit.
To quote Ray Davies: âOh, demon alcohol...â
All on me, gents. Cheers to those of you under par!

Round 3 (5 birdies, 3 bogeys) -2 VANDELAY UNDER PAR?!?!?!?! Whodathunkit. 2 under outward, level inward thanks in large part to a holed bunker shot on 17 for birdie. Was outplayed by Tuffguts (good on ya mate), we have set the bar for those leaders.....ok, it's a low bar, but still.... Onward!

Round 4 (3 birdies, 3 bogeys, a double and a triple) +5
Well it started fine, parred the first 5 holes. Then I crashed (7) and burrrrrned (another 7) on the next two holes and that was that.
Bright side? Even par for 16 holes. Unfortunately, there are 18 holes in a round.
+9 for the event, still pretty happy with that. Good luck to the rest of you who still need to finish.
Onward!

I saw a good tip after Rd 1 regarding "laying back" and avoiding pitch shots into the green, particularly on hard/fast greens. Looking forward to next week and hoping to avoid any "shocker" rounds.

Apologies, gentlemen. Couldnât get to R4 at Pine Valley. Too many distractions around the house.
