3 pars and 1 birdie = good score?

On the surface it sounds quite good but the ending was quite disappointing as i still cant break my best score 113 in the RBA GC. Whatever it is, this date is a really important one as this Birdie is my first..on a 185 yards par 3 hole 14 in RBA.

Pushed myself to play with the DRMers in one of their Sat morning rituals in RBA and "fortunately" enough i am in the same flite as the golf nuts members: Spidey, GC and Kesisang Man (KM). We tee off quite late in the morning waiting for Spidey to complete his morning rituals "tangas" before golf in the RBA toilet. We decided to play a team match and Spidey and KM kindly gave us a one stroke shot .

To their suprise, we thrashed them quite bad and they are forced to withdraw from the scoring around the 11th Holes. Thanks to the one stroke lead, we managed to get honours in almost 12 out of the 18 holes. I Scored 54 in my first back 9 which i really think could have been much better if not for that stupid index 1 hole in which i scored a stupid 13. My front 9 was quite good until Spidey and KM started to play dirty by presurring me during my tee off and especially during my putting. This mental game reached its peak when Spidey decided to call me "Lai" revealling his fatherly nature which somehow really messed up my system. This plus my bad habit strong grip lead a double par in my my last 5 holes hence my 113 score.

If i can absorb their power i would take the followings: Kesisang Man`s putting power, GC`s Iron and wood draw shots and Spidey`s power drive. Since i cant do that..i guess i will have to go back to some basic especially my strong grips..any tips on how to remove this habit is very much welcome.

Cheers!
