End of the season....

A couple of weeks back I played my final competitive round of the year and it pretty summed up the way my golfing year has gone. A collapse at the end of the round for a lame 77 and no prize money. Ah well, I'm disappointed that I didn't produce some better golf than I did this year but it was always gonna be tricky. Until May, I didn't even have a steady job or place to play or practise so that doesn't help.

Here is a round up of my results this year:
Powerade Assistants (North Downs GC) - 77 (+8)
Tudor Park Pro-Am (Tudor Park GC) - 78 (+8)
Hollingbury Pro-Am (Hollingbury GC) - 80 (+8)
Cherry Lodge Pro-Am (Cherry Lodge GC) - 81 (+9)
Kent Open (Kings Hill GC) - 78 (+6) & NR (Horrendous Weather!)
Assistants & Trainees Champs (Clandon GC) - 82 (+10) & 74 (+2)
Seaford Head Pro-AM (Seaford Head GC) - 77 (+6).

There you have it, not a great year really but I'm not embarrased to say I have struggled. I have worked hard on my game and not had any results so I guess shit happens! All I can do right now is wind down and have a bit of a breather and then work hard to prepare for next year. I'm gonna get some decent tuition and try and use whatever money I can to invest in improving my golf game. I'm doing my PGA because I love playing golf and for no other reason. Therefore, if I am to start performing in tournaments I have got to go full throttle and work even harder. I can't wait, I really can't!!

On the bright side, home life is awesome! I'm loving and feel very lucky to have our house now and be able to share it with R. We're having a great time and the independance we have is great. I'm glad I took a risk this year by moving away and standing on my own two feet as after a pretty stressful year things are definitely coming round and it was all totally worth it to be where we are now. Ok, we aren't rolling around in money but we are both very happy with life and I think that's the main thing. I do still miss Brighton very much but I do love the life I have now built for myself here, and looking forward to whatever the future may hold.

I'm unsure but this could conclude the blogging for this year. We'll see what happens....
