This course is always a tough course for me. Played the first 3 rounds in C/C and my fairways and GIR% have gone down every round. Now for that last m/f round. Good thing I had a somewhat good snap on the first two.

Thanks Jim. First round I had no snap and the second was like playing Pro. Some good bounces in there too.

Tis indeed a tough old course that can bite so easily. My rounds so far have been consistently inconsistent LOL
Round 1 played fairly well T to green but not putting. Round 2 the opposite but got a few key shots right ( lucky ace helped ) and putted well. Round 2 just awful. A good putter early on would have helped but snap misses galore.

Sort of summed it up on 3 holes. Got the lucky ace on 11 in round 2 so some strange confidence on the T. Bad miss snap and left the par shots some 28 yards short!! Next the par 5 12th. Aimed waay left of the fairway (OB left) and missed right as planned. But so poorly I found another fairway a long way right. Blind shot to the green with a ton of left right slope. Guessed a line missed the snap right and the ball only just stayed inbounds because i missed the snap late.
Then get to 18 and finally hit a T snap and go into the rough. Next shot isn't long but basically impossible to get close from the lie. Thought long is ok but some how managed 40 feet short LOL I need a rest.
