New Handicap?
Shot a 79 today. Played pretty poorly but scrambled well and no complete disaster holes. Excited to see what GHIN says about my handicap adjustment when its posted tomorrow. Currently 8.6 which gives me 10 shots on the whites at RCC. Hoping that I'll be adjusted down so I'm playing off single figure handicap for the first time in over 5 years!

Its been a while ......
since my last update. Since then took it easy due to injury plus had two weeks in the UK which has given me time to fully recover. I did play once in the UK which was in the middle of a heatwave (just nice for me compared to the oppressive heat/humidity we have in VA at the moment). Using borrowed clubs and with sun baked fairways shot something like a 90 which was understandable if a little disappointing.
On the local front my golf had been continuing to improve until this weekend. Prior my scores had gone 82 - 80 - 78 - 77 and everything seemed to be coming together and golf was beginning to seem easy. This continued into this weekend covering the first six hole in one under par. Then .... the wheels came off and covered the remaining 12 holes in 12 over ending up with an 82! Trying not to get too down about that given that's still a respectable score given how badly I was striking the ball on the back 9! I'm putting it down to tiredness and heat (Hey ... I'll grab any excuse) and I'm hoping that it won't affect the downward trend of my handicap when they updated at the end of the month. With any luck I'll be playing off single figures on the Whites at RCC.
