Hi everyone, what a beautiful Saturday morning it was, the sun was shining the frost was a bit chilly on the skin but all in all it was set up for a good start to the Bridgestone bag trophy two week comp. 29 players came out to try and win this great prize, as each group hit off and started walking up the first it became very evident that the course was still water logged from all the consistent rain over the past few weeks. Hitting off the fairway even after finding a not so muddy spot was still a little tricky, i personally tasted the odd clump of mud after trying to smash my ball down the fairway. Week one of the comp saw Matty the rubber man Loan out for a round after a few weeks out resting his neck and shoulders from injury, well what do they say "beware the injured golfer" in Mattys case it was so true, coming in with a very impressive 40 stableford points matty is the first round leader. Well done Matt on a dream come back, not to put the hodo on you but history tells us all that generally the front runner in a two week comp in our club anyhow has a power failure in week two, i certainly hope that is not the case this time round, break the mould Matty. there are a few contenders still for the bag, Frankie with 37 pts and a hand full of others on 36 pts, i think from 32 pts on have an outside chance of coming home with a wet sail and a hundred km wind behind us :). next week is the Sept monthly medal, followed by the second round of the bridgestone bag comp.
ps. it was great to see Tony Bulmers Bryant out again after a few weeks off renovating his home, looks good, job well done, and i checked, he came in bruise and bump free, must have purchased that armored suit after all.
reminders: Thaxted park away came is on Sunday 15th Oct, 10am tee off , putting comp 9.15am
