Koberg Golf Club - Was a short drive, just a little over 2 hours from Sarpsborg to this pretty course - it was established in 1962, if I remember correctly and the length of the holes and general course layout is telling when you play this enjoyable track.
Started with a practice round on Thursday which went well, getting used to the little slower greens (9 on the stimp) afterwards and nine holes with my caddie on Friday evening, I was ready to compete. Have been hitting the ball better and better and the short game is solid. Was hoping for a good start on Saturday but limped home with an opening 81. Should have been at least four, five shots better with some flow but it wasn't to be. Being 12 or so shots back after the round is disheartening and getting motivated for the next day isn't always easy. Sunday's round was an uneventful 77 with no real flow either, it could have been a level par round with some lip ins instead of lip outs but I tried to stay in the moment for each shot and preform to my best.
This coming week we are heading to the most southern golf course in Sweden - Trelleborg Golfklubb, a links course with a little slower greens than I'm used too because of the seaside location. It's supposed to be good weather with a bit of wind, something to be expected and I am looking forward to the challenge.
Hope that everyone who follows along is doing well and that the summer brings lots of warm days.
Thanks for the moral support and good thoughts. Will try to post a little sooner after this next weekend.
