86 0ff the stick, hcp at 18 atm. Came 2nd in Monthly Medal. Could have played front 9 a bit better, but that's golf.

[ITCHY EYEBALLS]

played at PK yesterday. No wind. 2 lost balls. played to handicapable.

Highlight was an eagle opportuity on the 5th, which ive done once in my life alongside ITCHY EYEBALLS and Pklz
solid 3 putt par.

Can confirm!

 

[Lebbo73]

I’ve been Toowoomba for a few days working and went back to Brissy late yesterday. So I snuck a game in yesterday, my first in three and a half weeks. Rusty start but finished with 29 points. If I’m not playing twice a week my golf is not good.

 

[Daics1]

club?

Royal and Ancient Golden Beach, Sth Gippy.

 

[ScrappyCoCo]

Didn't play in the comp due time being at the Devils 1st game at North Hobart oval.
Played 18 in the afternoon off the blacks in honour of it being Monthly Medal.
80 off the stick, 34 points with x2 wipes/doubles. No birdies.
Perfect weather. Between January and April, Hobart has the best golfing weather in the world. We're so blessed. No humidity, no wind, still plenty of light.

Son is on his way down Easter Monday. Playing Barnbougle, 7th beach, Ratho Farm and 3 others over a week.

 

[Pklz]

Has anyone played Westgate before? I played there today and it’s home to the most diabolical holes I’ve ever played.

 

[Bicco]

9 holes, 2 over. Really getting frustrated with my putting. Had 8 putts for birdie (x2 from just off the green) and made 0. Really struggling to get the ball to the hole. I'm.sure it's an easy fix, but I'm totally sure of the weight but the ball continually comes up short. I could be shooting sub par rounds but those 5-15 foot putts are killing me. It's hard to be disappointed with good scores but they could (what a word) be so much better.

no. but i know someone who has and was ecstatic when leaving

Barnbougle will be great, Rather likely very dry on the fairways. As in dead grass. Greens and tees should be ok.
I've heard conflicting reports on 7 miles condition. Pleasingly, most recently I was told it was in good nick. Likely on the dry side. We don't get much rain down here.
I'd give Ratho a miss and play one of/both Royal and Tasmania if I were them. Courses will be much better in evey way.

My mate played Barnbougle Thursday and it looks perfect. No dramas there.

A couple of blokes they are with have been down there so I am guessing they are including a few they didn't do last time. I have another mate who has been down there recently...mid handicapper around 20. He liked Ratho and some of the small courses in random small towns. Think he might have found the better courses just too tough.

 

[peternorth]

the national tomorrow and weds.

Yeah I have.

It's... not good.

If you're in this area, Altona Lakes is easily the little 9 hole local of choice.

In their defence I'm not sure they could do a hell of a lot more in the little space they have and the condition of the course was fantastic. It was chaotic though and that dog leg par three was out of this world. 168m par 3 and you can see the green from the tee

 

[sideswipe]

Wednesday comp at sorrento - winner(off 24) had a nice day with 48 points. Shot an 81 off the beater(par 69 as temp hole in play).

 

[Planet14]

Our last medal day a visitor off 13 shot 73 off the stick for net 60. Won by 8.

 

[Bicco]

Getting hard to get 9 in after work. The darkness is upon us.
18 points, x3 birdies. No real mistakes. So happy with the hit.

 

[sideswipe]

Rain was the winner at Metro today. Made it through 9. Fairways ridiculously good and greens hard as, even in pouring rain.

 

[peternorth]

Played at the national yeseterday. sun, cloud, rain. Just a fun day. No score, just had fun with mates and pros.

Watched a number of pros hit balls at the National today with the national tournament underway

Metro is THE bucket list Australian course for me.

 

[sideswipe]

Metro is THE bucket list Australian course for me.

I do love it. Dropping balls on the putting green and hearing them go pock.

 

[Livonski]

32pts on Wednesday. Birdie on #8 and some dumb crap either side. Had the lightning siren go off as we were walking down #6 (our 9th). Mandatory half hour meaning 2 Carlton cans then back out. Good day!!!

(By sandbelt standards) it's awfully overrated. If the conditioning falls away it doesn't have a lot else to hang its hat on.

I'd say conditioning is 80% of the experience. As long as that's there on any course it will be a better experience. One of my favourite courses is Palmer Coolum, but apparently now the conditioning is poor so people won't play it. The course is still the same layout.
I think Norman said that Metro had the best fairways in the country (would've been years ago to be fair). I was told recently that Lake Karrinyup is in poor condition, so the experience is less. I'd have both Coolum and LK in my top 5 for course layout.
My reason for wanting to play Metro IS the conditioning. To play a course whose standard is so much higher than anywhere else.
