7 March at Hillview
Strong Easterly’s and the prospect of hot conditions greeted the 18 players yesterday morning. And yes it got hot dam hot!
Smeg was staring down the barrel of a certain worst nett with only 16 points to his name after 17 holes and no jug! But the 18th got the better of him and he posted a quit. Which ment some poor sucker who probably played alright got hit with worst nett. Much to Tony’s delight!
Gedster damaged his back bending over to pick up his ball and just played the remaining par threes. So on the 110M par three 12th he thought about hitting his driver but then decided to use his 3 wood. So he has a crack and his ball hits the flag but unfortunately ricochets and ends up at the back of the green. Nice effort though.
Fluff Man steps up to the 122M par three 15th takes a swing and dribbles it off the toe of his club and his ball finishes under his buggy. “ hey Fluff your now 121.5M out for your second shot “ was heard from a couple in his group!
Now I don’t understand how this next story even is even remotely possible. JK didn’t know that Dennis Cometti had passed away! Now come on how is that possible? His passing has been saturated on the tv, radio every social media outlet that exists and even on ones that don’t exist! Where have you been hiding JK?
Now the pairs matches. Fluff and I got a win over EK and Muzza. A very close match and nothing to report really.
OJ and Willy beat Wilbur and Rod quite easily with OJ shooting an 80 off the stick after having a jug on the first.
And the we have Ged ( who only played the first 5 holes and then the last three par threes ) and Geoff beating Joe and JK 8 to 5! Now I’m pretty confident that’s the first time a singular player has won a pairs match regardless of GED playing a few holes. And Geoff only had 29 points himself so hardly setting the course on fire but he not only defended a lead but improved that lead. Well done I say
Winner OJ with 38 points
Runner Up Barrie 35 points?
Thanks to the Fluff Man for the trophies
