A couple of years ago i said i wanted to get to single figures by i'm 40, well i was 40 on tuesday and was sat at 9.7 the lowest i got was 9.5 , when i started i was of 13 so a bit of a tall order i thought.
Played last night in the wednesday sweep and shot 80-10 for nett 70 the css was 72 so a cut of 0.4 to get me to 9.3 ,am a bit shocked wasnt' paying a lot of attention to my score as i started with 2 double bogeys and 3 bogeys in the first 5 holes i wasnt until the 17th that my mate said 1 needed two fours for 80 i then birdied 17th then missed a two footer for par on 18 which bugged me for the rest of night.
But anyway the hard work starts now to keep playing of single figures, happy days.

You little ripper!
I hate it when your in that zone and your partner suddenly announces "your playing well, 2 pars will be XX"
I always know my score myself but it still bugs the life out of me in a medal, it really shouldnt but it does. I always feel as though its a ploy to unsettle you, then again I believe in the X files.
Well played steve.

Well done Steve. It is an excellent feeling, eventually getting there isn't it?
Make sure you keep going!
I managed to shoot a 72 - 12 = 60 in a medal (a poor chap shot a net 61 of 18 and lost), and got cut to 8.0, followed by a 77 - 8 = 69 which got me to 7.6 (my lowest). However since then it has all gone a bit wrong, and I know play for a bit more fun off 12.6.

Well done Steve. That's good golf.
Single figures is still my target before I'm 65 . Trouble is, I'm rapidly running out of time so I might have to revise my target to getting there before I'm 70

Good darts Steve,
I guess thats what you wished for when you blew out fourty candles. Either single figures or a new lung at age and number of candles.
