The immediate reaction to the ‘greater involvement
initiative’ was positive, a steady 36 at the Lannock link event, Gross winner
in his age category and a happy golfer t’boot. Later that day he took on his
second County event on the futures tour and posted a slightly higher 40 on the
shorter yet ‘sneaky’ tree lined Stevenage course, though not brilliant it
earned him a handicap cut and not a bad effort for a first time at the new course
and second round of the day. A second bash at the Main course nine holes saw
another win and his handicap cut buy a staggering 8! Sadly however this was to
be the high point of the period. One week later in nasty wet weather for June
he posted an equally nasty 51 (arghhhhh – Aarons exact words…) followed a week later by a semi recovery 42
back on the links, only to undo his good works with a 49 at the Shire London’s
academy course.. shades of the last two years were beginning to colour the
scene. Things were not at their best and perhaps his various tour handicaps
reflected this.
Lannock links = 11
(Up 3 from a year ago)
Tigers = 17
Futures = 31
Main course = 40
Again however the cheeky chaps enthusiasm for ‘beating the
course’ remained and as such more mini golfer vs the course were planned +
much, much more practice.
