Mt Lawley Classic


I had the Mt Lawley Classic on this weekend, which is a 2 day competition at Mt Lawley. On the first 8 holes I was even par. I started off with bogie, then I had 2 birdies in a row, then 4 pars and another bogie. That took me to the 9th, a par 5. My first drive there was perfect, about 240m straight down the middle. My second shot was not great but ok, went about 170m and left me with 130m just on the edge of the fairway. All I need to do was hit it on the green and 2 putt and I would have had a 36. But I put it in the bunker, then hit is skinny out of the bunker and ended up with 8 for the hole. That gave me 39 for the 9. Not too bad, but I was disappointed with that last hole. I then went on to hit 49 on the back nine.
On the second day I had 102. That's how much golf is played in the head!
On the bright side I'm happy with how I am hitting the ball, it's just that my mind didn't keep up on the weekend. I haven't seen the figures yet, but I expect my handicap will go out to 13.7.
