I got my first golf club when I was 9 years old but I only had one lesson. When I was 10 we had mini kids golf at my primary school and I started playing. After a while I started going to group sessions at my local golf club in Tidworth where I was taught by one of the pros - Charlie Gold. I then progressed to the junior academy with the head pro at Tidworth. Charlie moved away as he found a new job however I still have individual lessons with Charlie as he is my main coach.

We all played well considering it was our first time playing there. We came 5th out of 12 teams so great result. My putting wasn't great but my driving was.

Tidworth Junior Handicap Cup
Today I played in the Junior Handicap cup. The weather was great! My game was not so great. I made some great pars and even a birdie. However, my putting let my down because I could have had some more pars. Only 5 people played. Terrible turn out!

Junior K/O Match V North Wilts
Today Owen, Harry and I played in a club V club K/O match V North Wilts and won. Harry won his match 4 and 3, I won my match 5 and 3 and Owen was all square on the last and unfortunately lost. I played against an 11 handicapper so I got 2 shots, the match was up and down the whole way round and then on the 10th hole I started to get a lead and tended on extending that lead....and so I did. I didn't putt well but that didn't stop me winning the match. I smashed every drive up the middle and really enjoyed the day! (thanks to my playing partner Brad) :)
