New clubs anyone?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Spring-time brings on the shearing – or so the poets say.\u00a0 It seems that it also brings out the golfers.\u00a0 Today, Royal Ivanhoe was graced with the biggest field we have seen for a long time.\u00a0 Good to see Mehm got back safely from his trip back home and other places.\u00a0 He was noticed getting stuck into some good Aussie tucker (potato scallop with tomato sauce).\u00a0 Apparently not on the menu in Turkey – or anywhere else for that matter.\u00a0 Also back in harness were the terrible twins – Zimmer and Stefan.<\/p>\n

The wind threatened to blow and the rain threatened to fall but both held off until everybody had finished.\u00a0 The couple of sprinkles during the round didn’t really count though raincoats and umbrellas were unfurled.<\/p>\n

The results were affected as much by the attendance rules as by the course conditions.\u00a0 Zimmer has obviously been getting some practice in somewhere along the line (and he has been seen on the course in recent times) and would have blitzed it with a nett 62 except that he didn’t meet the qualification for Monthly Medal.\u00a0 That might have left the gate open for David with a nett 64 but he also did not qualify.\u00a0 So, still with some fine golf it was down to the Three Musketeers, Trevor, Targe and Dennis to fight it out in a count-back for the prized medallion.\u00a0 In the event it was the Targe who prevailed by half a stroke.\u00a0 New handicaps all round fellows.\u00a0 Gordon, Laurie and SOS squared up for second place followed by Mike on his PatMa in third.\u00a0 The seniors also dominated the top three spots with SOS the only junior amongst them.<\/p>\n

The ball hole was on the 15th and was hotly contested with some fine ricochet shots off the hill going close but ultimately not close enough but I forgot to note who actually won it.\u00a0 The pro-pin on the 18th went to Stefan so at least he got something on his day out.\u00a0 There were thirteen birdies recorded but the big bird was left in peace to deposit another egg in the nest though Rodger did speculate briefly on replenishing his ball supply on the 17th after a pretty speccie drive.\u00a0 He also did his best to put the mockers on Harry on the 10th by bringing attention to a pretty good front nine.<\/p>\n

Tony and Bill decided on a little match-off to make things interesting and as a result Tony was spotted downing a muggacino after the game.\u00a0 Zimmer looks like he is going to have to work a few more Saturdays to be able to afford a new driver after a little ‘accident’ putting one of his clubs back in the bag (or there-abouts).\u00a0 Stefan is still hitting them long and loving the new tee on the 13th that allowed him to end about 20m short of the green.\u00a0 Some of his other long shots were less than appreciated by those in front on\u00a0 the other hand.<\/p>\n

Allan Davis turned up for the Club meeting afterwards sporting a bad foot that he is hoping to have back in shape for the Club weekend in November.\u00a0 Hope it all goes well Allan.<\/p>\n
