Why I haven't been blogging (28/05/2016)

Annoyingly, I have been ill for the last 7 weeks! which has meant that I haven't been able to play golf. I missed out on 4 big board comps which infuriated me but there was nothing I could do about it. Since I have started the medication I feel a lot better and am beginning to build up my strength again. I have been on the range a few times trying to find my swing, which I must admit I don't think I've lost. I went up after school yesterday (05/27) and went on the range and chipping green for a couple of hours. Surprisingly, I am actually hitting the ball well including my driver, I still need to work on a few things but i'll do that over time (baby steps). I plan to go up the club today and practice all aspects of my game and hopefully be ready to play my first round tomorrow (05/29). Considering I feel like I am hitting the ball well I hope to at least to my handicap, which means shooting a gross 79, however, before I became ill my last round I shot a 75 which is 4 under handicap. And also playing with Tim in the Junior captains day comp we shot 7 under gross and we both played amazingly well! I'm not expecting to shoot 7 under but I wouldn't mind shooting a gross 77, 2 under.

I'll let you know how it goes tomorrow. Expect another post.

Junior Captains Day!

Today, I played in the Junior Captains day comp with my good friend and playing partner Tim McNally. It was a pairs stableford scramble which was very enjoyable especially considering we won! We scored a collective of 46 points! We shot 7 under gross with a bogey on 17 due to a silly 3 putt from both of us! However, it was a fun day and a thoroughly enjoyed it. It was sad to see Perter Blake (past KO junior organiser) and Brian Bosley (past Junior Chairman) leave their roles in the junior section. Words can't express how kindhearted both of them are and I wish them good health for the future. Overall great day and even bagged myself 50 quid!
