Tosh,
It's a bit like christmas... great anticipation and then it flies by.
Got out for the first time last Thursday and I'm booked Tuesday and Friday next week. Course in great condition.
You'll find it a bit strange, what with one way systems, no catering and a socially distant pro shop but the usual club intrigues soon bubble up.... With ours this week, it's restricting members to 3 rounds per week that has caused the rumpus!
Enjoy yourself

Enjoy getting back out there

It will be nice to get a slice of normality back. Enjoy the first round back Tosh.

Can’t wait lads, I’ve booked tee times for Friday Saturday and Sunday lol, Im not expecting to get them all though so playing it safe........

Not sure of the courses rules yet I believe there’s a few club around me only letting you play 9 at the moment......but that would do just now.

Enjoy is it 2 balls ?

Yeh John 2balls......probably not going be any comps on for handicaps yet for a while I would imagine..
There also allowing visitors....
But that’s all I know at the minute.

In wales were still only allowed to play as a pair if you both live in the same household and max 3 times a week at my club. Just got back lovely out there.

Buzzing to get back out - managed to get Friday Saturday Sunday and Monday booked. Only 9 holes at a time and out in 2 balls but be great to get back out. Weather looking good for weekend as well

Played the other day and lost my titleist limited edition hybrid headcover from Japan gutted that won't be handed into lost and found.

John,
That's frustrating - I assume you're keeping a lookout on eBay, Gumtree etc???
You never know - human nature may surprise you - it might find its back to you.
Here's hoping, anyway.

John I mhave two new 917F headcovers if they are any use to you until you obtain a replacement.

Checked ebay nothing there , thanks for the offer madhatter but i have put my old one back on res.cloudinary.com/.../sxlrn8kr8na0akn7629o:550:0]

Great to get out yesterday although my game wasn’t where I left it unfortunately, the dreaded slice has sneaked in........weather was fantastic just like playing in Portugal lol.
Out again today(Saturday) and Sunday let’s see if I can get rid of this (ahem) fade......

Enjoy your golf everyone.

Well the scores are getting lower but the driving’s just not there yet........the confidence has gone.............maybe the range will help.

I managed my first game of golf since restrictions were lifted in Scotlans......it felt so good to be back playing again. Admittedly i was a bit rusty for the first 6 holes but after that i was happy with how i played

I’ve another three tees booked for this wk out on my own for the first of them so I’m gona really knuckle down and concentrate on the in to out path.......really annoyed as my driving was great(ish) before the lockdown.

Where are you a member Tosh?

Strathmore James.

I take my works outing there every year Tosh, we have rebooked for September, been going for about 15yrs now, three days worth of golf. We are based at The Red House Hotel in Coupar Angus.

Good stuff bud I’ll need to keep a beady eye out for ya. ️‍♂️

Finally got my big butt back out on the golf course yesterday since February. Guess what it started raining and I only managed 16 holes lol.
But definitely getting the bug back after a long time off. ️‍♂️️

When did you move to Strathmore ? Thought you were at Piper ?

Still canny get my head round folk driving past Downfield to go play out of town.

Stu Cana get a membership at downfield nowadays Yev to many members.
Moved to strathmore in January........

Any whispers of a titleist fitting day at downfield?

I'll speak to Barry at the weekend and see if there is anything coming up.

I know the 7 day membership is full but 6 and 5 days are still available I think, how is Strathmore, not played it in decades, always liked it.

Thanks Stu, yeh Strathmore’s looking good mate anytime yer up for a wee change just give me a shout bud........all visitors welcome even posh Downfield anes if I remember your a low handicap so you’ll eat it up with its generous fairways and big greens.....I’m finding it a touch easier than piper so I’m enjoying it more.....
