Cancelled Q-round

Due to excessive raining the last night was our Q-round out at the Fountains course was cancelled. Instead we practiced some putts and shortgame, which I love.

Stuart and I went out to play 18-holes on a "raincourse" after nicely asking the starter if we could go out and play. Without warmup, Stuart and I started our round on the slightly wet course.

I hit some pretty good drives out there today, some of them came out with too much backspin which resulted in short distance. But there was actually some really good ones also. My goal is to be constistent above 275 yards which at this point would be equal to a 20-25 yard increase.

However I played pretty well on some holes and started to make some important putts, but as the round continued I lost concentration and strenght. I think this was because of the bad food intake that I had during the morning.

After the round I went to Stuart's parents for supper. I enjoyed the supper with the chicken and the fried chips "pommes frites". Thanks for the dinner:)

I could really feel how the weighted stick from yesterday's fitness session helped me today, the driver felt really light and easy to swing.

Tomorrow it's time for some rest and homework. I think I will go to the gym though and swing about 75-100 swings with the weighted 9 lbs stick, and also swing with a shaft to increase speed and not only the muscles.

See you everyone!
