Here in Oz it's coming into our summer, so at the moment we are getting light until after 8:30pm. Gonna enjoy it while it lasts!! Worked on 50-60y pitches with 56deg wedge (watching the 'zip' and roll out with 1/4 - 1/2 swing), and chipping bump and run style with different irons/wedges from appx 25y. I would hit 5 shots at a time, then go onto the green to putt them for up & downs, as per game conditions. Needed to work on the putting. I have a tendency to lift my head quickly & chase the putt, so was working on a nice smooth stroke and staying down, only following the ball with my eyes and head turn. Managed quite a few up and downs from putting distances of 3-15ft, and if the putts missed they were tap ins. Feel like I accomplished a bit, and am now heading down the right path from this simple 40 min session. The secret is to back it up next time!

Had an 84 on Saturday - my best rd to date (45/39). First time under 40 on the back 9. Net 66 & Comp win. Didn't do anything fancy, just hit a couple more fairways, was calm with approach shots (going for centre of greens, not the tight pins), and better lag putting. The basics of golf I suppose Backed that up with a 98 on Sunday, which was back to some very poor golf. I felt rushed and lost my calmness/concentration when it was required. The score from Saturday gives me optimism that I can score in the low-mid 80's consistently with the right plan & mindset.

I've played terribly for 6 out of the past 7 rounds, including a kickabout ambrose. Gonna go back to the basics, and really work on things as per this link from a different site: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/93/golf/ultimate-practice-routine-992787/

Played on Saturday just gone. It's early spring here in Oz & my course is still bit spongey on the majority of f'ways. Stableford on the w'end, and had 19 points on the front, 17 on the back. 36 points = played to my handicap. (91 in total). Topped my 3 Hy 3 times, a few fat shots with irons and an early shank which was playing on the mind. Best part of the day was having 3 chip ins (all on the back 9 & including 2 holes in a row). Putting was pretty good considering the greens were cored & sanded a week ago. Shows that the hard work on the short game is starting to pay off.

98 off the stick on Saturday off a daily of 19. Terrible golf. Must've hit 20-30 fat shots. Oh well, back to the basics & trying to take a small/no divot and swinging smoothly. Winter here, starting to dry out a bit, but not quick enough......

Can I ask a silly question? How do I get the actual logo of the equipment I'm using in my signature like a few others do?
