My ballstriking was good that day and I did not have any problems. Even though the face of the spoon was about half my normal one. The pro said low trajectory shots were recommended, but we all played a bit of everything. __________________ When James Durham recorded 94 at the Old Course at St Andrews in 1767, he set a course record that lasted 86 years.
