Normal Medal service restored today. Was hitting the ball poorly right from the start, a pulled and hooking 9 iron.
I should not have been so confident of another cut.
Two pull hooked shots out of bound on the second and the stage was set, throw in some assorted shanks, which i'm starting to think are related to the hooking, and it was not easy. One bright area was my putting 32 blows today which shows how bad my long game was. Putting does seam to be responding to all the practice it's been getting recently and a few tips Harry the Asist Pro and Stephen my regular playing partner gave me.
105 total, net 80 and 0.1 back. 3 shanks, 7 penalty shots!!!
Went to Pete the pro after the round and asked for a lesson to help me shake the shanks. He suggested playing a few holes on Tuesday evening so hopfully I will soon have some idea of how to banish this most destructive shot.
Next Sunday is the Stableford, I think I will play that and then wait till I have sorted the hook and the shanks before entring another comp.
