Pretty much got my MOJO back!!
Went for a lesson a few days ago - got a few kinks straightened back out...
Played a corporate day today at a new course in Bishopton (just outside Glasgow) called Mar Hall. Opened on May 4th this year, and I must say it was in lovely condition!!! This is going to be an extremely good course in the next few years as it matures!! There are three holes where you could be forgiven for thinking you are at Loch Lomond - very similar indeed.
Anyway, I drove the ball exceptionally well and hit every fairway. Irons were solid, but my short game and putting were a bit rusty - however the team I was in won on the day and I also "Beat the Pro" on one of the par 3's (best gross score mano et mano). I played a textbook on the green in one, putt to 4 inches and tap in for par, whereas the pro pulled his tee shot into the rough, played a delightful recovery to 4 foot and missed his putt. For that I won a free round of golf at the course.
Got my appetite for the game back and can't wait for my next round...
