Mt Lawley Practice Round

Been a while since i've blogged so thought i would start to post again.

Played a practice round at Mt Lawley today in preparation for Australian Amateur starting Thursday (18th March). Course looks a million bucks. Fairways are cut tight and running. The greens are firm and rolling very true.

This is the sort of course you want to be a member at. The facilities are world class. Awesome range, good chipping and bunker greens and massive practice putting greens. Shot-making course that punishes poorly struck shots. Tough around the greens.

Didn't hit it great from the tee but hit many quality iron shots and putted well. Spent some time on the range after the practice round and later in the day back at Royal Freo working on some swing moves. Starting to hit it better with more compression and keeping that driver in play. Worked out a strategy to playing the course which involved hitting less drivers off some holes and more 3 woods and hybrids.

Me and Seward joined up with a few boys from Canberra and NSW who were good players and even better blokes. Made the day very enjoyable. Also, brand new Srixon Z Stars as range balls!! Unbelievable. Might have put a couple in the bag haha.

Early morning tomorrow to get used to waking up early. Gym in the morning, bit of uni work and then practice up at Karrinyup tomorrow.
