Birmingham II – The Sequel…

Last week three great friends and I had a game at Silloth and then on to Carus Green for a couple of rounds there.  If you get the chance to go, say yes and have a game at Silloth.  It’s a corker of a course on the edge of the Solway Firth so it’s a bit off the beaten track, but seriously worth the journey to play a traditional links of championship standard.  Carus Green at Kendal is a great set up, with accommodation and tremendous practice facilities and golf course – perfect for both golf and apres golf.
Then it was back to the Masters Pro Tour at Enville Golf Club, home to two marvellous heathland courses with hospitality to match. No cheque but some good golf interspersed with one or two big scores at a few holes which I seem to be good at just now!   Moved up three places on the Tour’s Order of Merit to 28th so going in the right direction into the last quarter of the tournament schedule.
Couple of takeaways for me from this week – I lost my striking with my irons but managed to nudge it round on day 1 and almost got away with it.  Managed to get something going after various videos and chat with Coach Pete.  Also I had to play the second course blind on day 2 and built my confidence at reading the holes and choosing the right club and shot type.  
So frustrating yes but more progress again which feels great.
Off down to Corehampton, near Southampton next week so watch this space. 

All the best
Calum
