Feb 13 - REFOS

cold day with wind from North and some drizzle.  Last off with Neil and Mark W, and held up all the way round.  Played steadily, 18 out and 17 back, with some good short game.  Difficult coming back into the wind, and slowing up more and more as the drizzle got worse.

12 Feb. - Winter League

out first with Paul Davey and Graham Clark.  Started badly and never really got going.  Out in 14, back in 13, 5 blobs.  Hit some poor shots, found bunkers with impossible lies, etc etc.

8 Feb. - k/o vs Jim Hopkins and Roy Wilson

went two down immediately but got them back on 3 and 4. Then lost 8th but won 10th.  Lost 12 to be one down again but I birdied 14 and Derek Hayden birdied 15, then we hung on to win by 1.  Started badly but played ok for back nine.

6 FEB - REFOS

horrible forecast but the promised rain didn't come until later.  Played with Gary and Pete G and started with three pars, all through great short game.  20 for front nine then three putts on 11 and 13 and total mess on 16. So 35 total and third place.

5 Feb - Seniors winter league.

Played well to the 14th, one up on handicap.  Then hit a good shot to 15th but just a bit too right of green, catching the bunker and landing in an unfair position.  No shot, and the attempt landed back in the bunker, on the bit where the base of the bunker was exposed.  Then fluffed the 16th, par on 17 but a fluff short of the 18th after a good drive.  19 out but only 14 back, with three blobs.

4 Feb - East Herts

with Phil, Grant and Tony.  Mild day but the course was quite soft and muddy.  Playing long so struggling to get to greens.  Game went to the last hole where Grant pitched dead from the front bunker to clinch the game 2 and 1.  Didn't play very well.
