First game for a week and a half earlier today - unsurprisingly, it took a few holes for me to get going... No complaints about the course, though - we had our club championship finals today, and the greens were really nice to putt on. (Pace of play was also really good - we were the first game behind the main championship match on the first 18 of their 36-hole game (about 20 minutes after), and were round in a little over 3 hours.)
We had the sort of conditions that I hope that we'll get in a few weeks' time for the Scottish Open and the Open - dry and firm with a good solid breeze. Distance was no issue downwind (I drove the 320-yard 11th for the first time in a long time - my usual drive goes around 240), but controlling the ball on landing was very difficult - no way of stopping the ball, so you had to land it short (I had around 120 yards downwind into a back hole position at the 10th, hit my intended shot to carry to the front edge (around 95 yards), and my ball still only just stopped on the back edge. The 14th was similar - 145 to the hole, a little uphill, and I played a shot to carry around 120 yards, finishing just short of hole high.)
Into the wind, distance was hard to come by, but it was much easier to control the ball on landing - hit a full 3-wood into the 13th from 170 yards a little uphill, and finished pin high. Conditions like this make it harder to score well, but does reward good shot-making and execution.
