Midweek stableford. Played with Chris Franklin and Phil. Started off a rainy day - but it cleared up and was nice and warm.
7 iron
1st hole on woods. Drive put me in the middle of the fairway with ball below my feel. 145 to the middle. Put the club flat to the ground and took my position and made a smooth swing. Ball flew a little left to right as expected coz of slope but finished pin high around 8 feet from the pin

4 hybrid
2nd hole on lakes. Had a game plan for the hole that executed brilliantly. 3 hybrid, 9 iron layup in front of lake leaving me 170 to the middle and 188 to the back. Uphill so I knew 4 hybrid wouldn't go over the back. Imagined the flight the ball would take, and took a smooth swing. Struck it beautifully and it pitched in middle of the green and rolled just past the flag at the back

60 degree
7th on lakes, par 3. Was in the right bunker with a flag at the front which didn't give me much green to work with. Shot was into the wind and I had an uphill lie which helped. I opened the club and took a smooth backswing, making sure I followed through to finish with light hands. Ball popped up lovely and landed just past the pin, spinning and stopping within 6 feet. Played like a pro!
