Bailed early from work on Tuesday to make the club medal. Check out this nonsense of a card, definitely a tale of two nines! Somehow got me cut 0.2.

Had the 3 man scramble senior open at Tulliallan this afternoon. Managed to get round fairly dry having to just take shelter a couple of times under some pretty heavy stuff but they passed fairly quickly. We managed a gross 67 (-2) for a net 59. Went ok apart from a couple of avoidable bogeys which always feel like a nail to the heart in a scramble. We knew 58 was leading when we went out last but thought as usually happens someone will come in with something lower but turns out we were 2nd due to a better back 9 from about another 4 teams at 59. Was a forgiving format, 4 drives from each and one must be a par 3. Worked out well as I started hitting it off the tee well and could use a lot of them. Got a bit interesting on 3rd par 3 the player needing a tee shot made a mess of it and I stiffed it so it left him having to be the only player teeing off on the final one. It took him a bit to realise why I was smirking as the last 3 is a beast uphill. Needless to say he pulled it left and we had a really tough shot over a bunker with no green and a big slope away from hole. thankfully our 3rd man pulled of a beauty and we got away with a 3. Birdie on the last was a nice way to finish but we headed of fairly certain we would be well off but looks like some vouchers will be heading our way which is nice. Can maybe use them to replace my golf shoes as i blew one of the eyelets on a pair of Footjoy's which can't be more than 3 months old, kinda hoping they will replace them but we'll see.
