Well, if there was ever a day to get into the points, this was it.\u00a0 First off, it was stableford so there should be points to be had there.\u00a0 The weather wasn’t actually that bad, it didn’t rain, the temperature was surprisingly mild and the sun shone from time to time.\u00a0 The course was rather wet under-foot and we had the luxury of teeing up through the green but, as for last week, the greens were remarkably fast and true.\u00a0 Then of course, there was the small field – only 13 players.<\/p>\n

The person who did get amongst the points was SOS with an excellent round to score 39 points.\u00a0 You could just about throw a blanket over the rest of the field, so much so that everybody that played scored championship points.\u00a0 Not something that happens very often.\u00a0 Stephen’s good round also translated into a win\u00a0 in his matchplay against Bill Eastoe 2 and 1.\u00a0 Though I gather that Bill put the frights into him on the 16th by rattling in a putt that was somewhere between 50 and 100ft depending on who you listen to.\u00a0 Chris Priems managed to get closer than Tony and Harry to score the ball on the 4th and Oliver blew away all comers on the 18th with a sub 1m spot for the pro-pin.<\/p>\n

Richard Hall thought he had well over-clubbed it on the 18th but obviously had the right amount of backspin to bring it gently over the lip from the upper level and look for a moment like outdoing Oliver to take the money.\u00a0 Unfortunately, the ball had just a little too much roll and even the hoped for birdie managed to elude him.\u00a0 Priemsy (and others) initially had some qualms about teeing up but soon warmed to the idea once the benefits became obvious.\u00a0 It seems a number of people used their driver three times on the 6th.\u00a0 Pepsi apparently pulled off the shot of the day on the seventeenth. From a hill-side lie and with no path obvious, he cunningly used a tree branch to sky the ball over the water hazard and onto the green.\u00a0 A bit cranky to miss the birdy though.<\/p>\n

Just another reminder that those planning to go on the Club Melbourne Cup Trip should make their arrangements (and peace) with Rodger on or before next Saturday.<\/p>\n
