Week 1 Final Leaderboard A great turnout to kick off the new Season at Mike R's sandsaver01 recreation of Bandon Dunes which received very favourable reports and great to hear that it may be appearing on the Tours and it also saw a first time on the top of the podium for Andrew zorbacles who carded a very impressive 18 under for the 36 holes. Johnny evilgrin72 is always there or thereabouts but had to settle for 2nd place this week 1 shot back with a three way tie for 3rd of Jeff hoosierhoops24 Wade @sirwade59 and Les lessangster being a further shot behind. Hope to see you all out in force this week at Simon's SAM latest offering, Heartlands Golf Club. Onwards!!!
Ok explain this one to me Ben. I finish among the 11 Dirtbags to not get a point....I manage to better 7 of said Dirbags (to you seven, oh the SHAME!)...go to the table for the season long chase and where do I find my name but DEAD LAST! Is that because you think that is where I will be eventually?

With a busy couple of weeks coming up and my golf club open again I got my rounds in early. Round One let me feel how it must be to play in Phil Mickelson's shoes. It felt like I found deep rough on every hole. I know I probably didn't, but that's how it felt. I scrambled heroically salvaging Sister-in-Law pars and even managing a few birdies along the way. At one stage I even laid up with a pitching wedge to leave a full wedge into a tricky tucked pin on a par-5. In the end it was probably my most hard-fought and satisfying -5 in many a long while.
Round Two was blemish free and if I remember correctly there was an eagle to cancel out the three-stab par on the driveable par-4. Just not enough putts dropped to keep up with Wade and Eddy Merckx, finishing -8 and -13 for the competition. Let's hope things are better tomorrow when I actually get to go and swing a club for the first time in nearly eight weeks.

Yeah Google Sheets does this crazy thing where it sorts surnames out alphabetically but the format is all wrong and just does it to the last one.

Sitting in the clubhouse knocking back a white Belgian beer called Blue Moon after a first round score of -8. I like Heartlands as there's a few tight shots that are satisfying when you pull them off, but there's always the nagging doubt of water and heavy rough lurking in the back of your mind.

Blue Moon is one of the finest beers MillerCoors makes.

All right, zorbacles, you're on the mountaintop now. A place that's been to sole domain of one cappy1 so far. The masses are gathering below, keen on mutiny. Do you have what it takes to stay on top?

Fair enjoyed my trips round Heartlands Simon SAM As expected clipped a few trees and went for a couple of swims. 2nd Round had everything, great approaches, good putts, desperate saves, two swims (entirely my fault I might add, no blaming the tempo gremlins from this boy!!), and a fair bit of trademark mediocre pixel golf. Lovely looking course and very enjoyable to play, if I had a criticism it would be the lack of waterfalls and fencing

I don't know how it happened. I'm never that good. Have just had a pretty good week in over golf. Finished CCE with -40 which is my best and felt I could do better. Put in a -8 on horseshoe and thought I played poorly and a -14 on red valley (next week's cc am course) Maybe I've turned a corner.
