The conditions were a massive improvement on the last round at Yarrambat It was dry & relitivly still. I didn’t help my game to much in the opening holes but I hacked my way up the first fairway & then did something I have never done at Whittlesea on the second. I put my ball out of bounds off the tee After the 3rd hole I started to get my act together. At the end of the day I lost 3 balls & finshed with a net 75 (I think). Neil’s day wasn’t so good. He wasn’t a very happy chappy for most of the day & I’m pretty sure his bag was a club lighter at the end of it Unfortunatly Neil had to work in the afternoon so we had to go straight after our round so I don’t know what the standings are going into the final round. If I findout I’ll stick it in as a comment.

First round of the Epping RSL Championships & the conditions couldn’t have been any worse. For anyone living in Melbourne you would be well aware of the crappy day that we had. There was a gale blowing all day & the rain only let up for a couple of holes. They were the worse conditions that I have every played in

Having said all of that there was a 8 groups teeing it up. Neil was on fire shooting a net 68 to take a 6 shot lead into the second round in Whittlesea in a couple of weeks. For the record I shot a net 77 which I was quite happy with The lessons seem to be paying off for Neil & to a lesser extent myself.

I got an email from Michael over at Aussie Golfer asking if we could swap blogroll links. After looking at his site I was more than happy to. He has some great info over there & I would suggest that you pop over & have a look.
