Playing on Grass



We got to get back out onto the Academy Course at the Doha Golf Club last week. The course is a short par 34 and I had a good day carding a 35 just missing a birdie putt on the last. It's only the second time we have played it so was very happy with the result. Stay out of the desert and you can score low. We're hoping to get on and play the championship course before it gets too hot. It's interesting golf has been an important part of my life as I do a lot of thinking on the course. A great release from the daily grind. A major part of the game which I enjoy is the niggle, the gamesmanship. I paly with a great group of people back home. These guys I play with here love the niggle as well. Its the testosterone I think. Anything competitive and its all on. There is an ANZAC tournament here on Friday which we are playing in so it will be a good chance for Kiwis and Aussies to get together.

Just remember if someone calls snakes - have a real good look! Glad to see the Niggle is alive and well on the other side of the world
