Tried to get out for a round...

...but weirdly, many flags had been taken out of the holes. I'm not entirely sure if this is jus a consequence of municipal course golf or if it was to protect the course- it was either pretty soggy or I've suddenly become the master of backspin. (hint: it's not the latter). Course was closed today, so went to the range. Did Neil Plimmer's 18 shot challenge, which went OK but did far too much scrape & hit. Started to have my old weird aiming issues- pushing my irons, pulling my woods, but think now I'm starting to get the better of it. My focus needs to be outwards, at the target, not downward at the ball/club interface. This seems to help.

Got back to the range this evening (unheard of luxury- had parent's evening at Ms Geek's nursery, slid off to range after) and just concentrated on trying to make free swings focusing on the target. Herein the future lies for me at present. Have made a few other discoveries, but want to explore them a little more before blogging them.

Have become part of a fascinating golf community on Twitter; I'm really excited about this and have already learned a lot. So much so I've added this blog's URL to my profile. Now all I need to do is write some more...

to be continued!
