18 April at Marri Park - Winners & Grinners
Sixteen players fronted Marri Park on Saturday in fine weather, for the par comp, club trophy. Two pairs matches were also played.
ON COURSE:
· Brad sends his drive left on 12, and in trying to get out of the bush, he has a windy. How unremarkable you might say. Well let me tell you I have been writing this crap for yonks now, and Brad never gives me anything. Brad having a windy, now there’s something. Thanks Brad.
· Wilbur (B) and OJ (A) won the long drives on 12 with some huge hits. OJ’s was so big it nearly killed Pig, and OJ had to buy the whole of group 2 a round.
· Wilbur on the 18th, belts yet another long drive but it’s going straight for the water hole right, at 1 million mph. It bounces short, and hits the red hazard marker pole (dia 80mm), and Rick O’Shea’s back onto the fairway stopping 130m out. Unfugginbeleevable! His group would have spewed if that was a long drive hole.
PAIRS:
· The Underdogs (Steve & Aussie) took on The Generation Gap (OJ & Willy). After yet another hooked drive, Aussie asked “why do I always hit it left?” There was no answer. The game was all square at the turn, but Tony lit things up on the 15th with a 15m zero putt to take the lead. However Steve and Aussie chased them down on the 18th to square the match 5-5.
· Quiet Achievers (Brad & Pete) played Talking Heads (Muzza & Erin). Muzza was doing his zero putting thing early to kickstart Talking Heads into the lead. Then Erin on 7 & 8 saw Talking Heads lead by 1 at the turn. But after last weeks flogging, Quiet Achievers found their mojo and closed the match out on 15 at 4&3. Final score 9-5.
WINNERS:
· Par Score Guessing Game - A lottery was run on the aggregate Par score for the second group of Tampo, Clappers, Pig and Smeg. Pig did well with a +1, Clappers too with a square, Tampo -1, but Smeg ruined everything with a -10, for a group score of -10. Brad correctly guessed it at -10, and he made off with all the loot.
· M9 - Pig did well on course and took out the M9 with a score of +3. Look out.
· Par Comp - Brad won the day with a fine +2 for the Club trophy $60, well done Brad. No runner up as it was an M9 Club trophy day.
· What on earth is Lindsay doing in the photo? A high 5 at range?
HOSPITAL LIST:
· Great to see the some more good news on Fintans progress this week. Get well Fintan.
· I’m off to SJoG Murdoch on Tues to have my prostate out – ouch! Anyone want to come and watch? I won’t be around for a couple of months, but will keep the pairs updates coming thru.
Till next time,
Pete
