Hanging on...

I was losing one of my flagged scores (a 14) today so knew I needed to play to a 14 or better...the competition was par which means if you don't finish the hole to your par or better (with your handicap added on) then you pick up the ball...playing to your par is a square while playing better is a plus...picking up is a minus...for example, I play off 12 so I get an extra shot over par on the 12 hardest holes...

it was pretty warm on the course and I was glad to finish only one over my handicap which means I replaced the 14 with a 13 and my exact handicap dropped to 12.3...this means I get at least three more games off 12...woo hoo!

unfortunately, the next flagged score I lose in three games time is a 9 so I need to have a really good round in one of those three!

the Bruce Cup pennant season starts in two weeks and I'm currently ranked #7 in the club (only 5 play in the team)...Bruce Cup is played off scratch so I need to make sure I keep playing well and lower my handicap if possible...#s 4-6 are also off 12 but their exact handicaps (11.6, 11.6 and 12.2) are better than mine although I'm closing the gap...

not much else planned for the weekend although I do have a long run tomorrow morning as usual...I think I'm up to 100 minutes...
