Tough old day. 12 through to 17 were as tough a run as I've played in that wind. I had 7 doubles all in throughout the round and was sitting 7th when I left!!!!! A 340 yard wind assisted drive at the last eased the pain. No a bad dig for an auld boy. 😄This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Yes have played them both, they are fine.
Buy yourself course planners and pay attention to them, there are a few sneaky bits of trouble not visible to the naked eye.
Good luck

I have been playing pretty regularly since taking the game up again last year. So much so i have bought a new driver and 5 wood.
I bought the Ping G30 range, and what a difference they have made to my game. I'm getting 30-40 yards further with the driver, and the 5 wood is the best club i have ever owned.
Off the fairways the 5 wood is so easy to hit, and goes miles further than my previous one. Handicap has come down from 21 to 16 in 6 months, and a couple of rounds i have had recently just with my mate, i have shot 79 and 80 on the par 72 Herons reach devere course.
Loving the golf these days.

Good to hear mate... I think I might treat myself to one of those 5 woods as I need to fill the gap between my 5 iron and 3 wood

Roll on winter!
Absolutely brutal conditions today. Gale force winds and driving rain made respectable scoring absolutely impossible. Having said that I contributed to my own downfall when I discovered on the 16th tee that I was carrying 15 clubs. What an erse!

Saturday was probably the worst wind I have ever played in.
There were a couple of tee shots that were blown nearly 100 yards right by the wind.

Piss poor today, lot less wind but i couldn't swing a club. It was the club medal today and i shot a 78 off my 16 handicap.
No idea what i was doing differently to the last few weeks.Last edited by blackpoolhibs; 09-06-2015 at 06:22 AM.

Championship today and tomorrow and I've been playing terribly. Saying that I had a net par on Wednesday with 2 x 7's (1 at a par 3) and 3 x 6's!!

Bought a new set of irons today, tried the Ping G30 and the G25s and was getting 5 yards longer with the 30s but more accuracy with the 25s. So the 25s it was and they are in the bag ready for Monday.

Played Helensburgh a couple of times with the reciprocal deal.Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, vodka in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "WOO HOO what a ride!"

Playing Peebles Cardrona this weekend, any tips?
Someone once told me that hard work wouldn't kill me.
I thought: "Hell, why take the chance"!

The course is in pretty good nick right now and the greens are surprisingly quick. I find it a tough track to crack and when you look at the competition results on HDID you'll see that the CSS regularly exceeds the SSS of 74. It's very easy to take 3 putts due to the size of the greens but there are some real cracking holes and I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
PS If you're playing more than 1 round then you should consider making use of a buggy as the course is not only long but also has some long walks between the holes. A mate of mine insists that its 367 yards between the eight green and the 9th tee but personally I find that hard to believe.

New clubs were good but my lengths were quite a bit out , only scored 33 points today but my accuracy in terms of going straight was much better.
Need a trip to the range to write down my distances with each club, as they are hitting much longer than my Taylormades.
