About Me

Just taken up golf again after a five year layoff. Trying to get down to be a solid single figure handicap but age, ability and agility are my biggest handicaps at present.

Wow ......

didn't realise it was so long since the last post! Must be because I've been playing so badly over the winter I've been almost too embarrassed to write anything about it.

Think the decline is due to trying to make some fairly radical swing changes as I had got about as far as I could get with my old swaying, non releasing, non compressing one.

Starting to see some signs of it working with the new season upon us, so have set as my first target to get back to where I was last summer (handicap index out from 6.2 to 8.7!!!!!). Ideally this year I would like to shoot at least one round of level par or better and get my index down to 4 or 5. Will just have to see how it goes and hope my wife gives me enough time off for good behaviour to practice. Unfortunately good behaviour is not one of my stronger character traits.

Watch this space.

P.S. Got my first eagle since playing at Richmond Country Club on Sunday (par 5 9th - Driver, 3 wood, putt)
