Results for 22 September 2012 Par Event

Hello Handicapper!

Oliver certainly had reason to smile today.  What a way to start a round, ten pars on the trot.  Obviously, the pressure started to tell and he fell right in a hole (relatively speaking).  Four over for the round and plus 6 was enough to win him the day and a brand new handicap.  However, Eddie was not too far behind on the points side and will also have fewer strokes to play with next time.  After last week’s victory, Jan put in another fine effort to pull in third place.  Jan’s grin was so wide his ears were behind his head.

Another reason for Oliver to be smiling was a fine shot on the 18th to pick up the ProPin so he should be able to scrape enough together for the green fees in two weeks time.  And what can we say about the ball hole…

It doesn’t get much closer than this!

Trevor was charged with dropping the NTP marker on the 12th.  But guess what, he conveniently forgot about it until he put one on the green at the 15th to about 4m and decided that this should be the ball hole.  It all came to nought when Tony the Maltese Falcon put his about 40cm from the hole and he strode home already feeling the bulge of the ball in his pocket.  However, it was not to be.  Ken Grist, not to be out-done, put his to 4cm to collect the ball but was a veritable Michael Hair from the elusive Ace (and Eagle).

Needless to say, Ken dropped the birdie but our feathered friends were a little thinner on the ground with only six being recorded.  The Eagles Nest has jackpotted again so get out those big beaters guys and see if you can lighten up Chris’s bag for him.

Speaking of the big beaters, have a look at the result of over-clubbing and running out of fairway.  Even a Lindrum shot couldn’t get Richard out of this little difficulty.  beautiful drive though

Next time use less club!

Just another reminder, chaps.   Please check your handicap before you go out.  I know it can be difficult with different handicaps inside and outside but there were two cards with the incorrect handicap today.  Also, take care with your points calculation and arithmetic.  There were also two cards with scoring/arithmetic mistakes.  Once again, I know it is not easy with different events in the same round with different handicaps to deal with but once again I am sure we would all like to see the correct results being claimed and awarded.

As discussed at the after gathering, there is no Club event next week but members can play in the Clubhouse Ambrose Event if they wish.  At this stage, three players have registered that I am aware of so if another puts their hand up we will at least fill one group.
