Thinking the threat of rain had passed us by, 23 players took to the 1st tee for the opening round of the Mike Taylor Golf Bag Competition. Surprisingly, all 23 players also returned soaked and confused by the results. For somehow, with a score of 41 points, and knocking down the Ribena vapors like a man possessed , was non other than our illustrious Club Captain.... yes, he of the angry bird head gear at the start of the round, Tony 'Cart King' Bryant. Well played Bulmers... But fear not trendsetters, anyone within a few points has a great chance to watch Bulmers slide down the leaderboard quicker than a mango/ lime concoction in his peace pipe !!!
Grade winners this week were Klaus ' I love the rain, don't know what you blokes are on about' Ebdrup in A Grade with 38 points. B grade goes to Steve ' Ass Pincher' Mckenna with 40 points, and Paul 'I do my best work after 12' Hughes claims C Grade with his round of 40 points.
Plate this week go to Steve 'More ACME than TNT' Belcher with 38 points in A Grade. Greg ' Playing with Bulmers cost me my round' Mathews takes the plate for B Grade with a not so fun 21 points. In C Grade, Super 'But I shot 44 on Thursday' Mann wins it for his score of 24 points.
The birdie hole also went off this week, with Paul 'You blokes are more fun than Buzz, but why is every shot I hit for a jug ? ' Hughes sinking a 4 / 4 on the 5th. Well done Paul, not a bad win mate. feel free to buy your playing group this week a port before the game.....
Team players this week were DC ' Just remember who won Ashbourne, Robbo' 5, Rob ' Who cares about that, just remember my 49 last week !!' Gardener and 'Glad it was my only jug for the day' Robbo all fell short of the ladies on the 4th, and Matty 'Never mind the ladies, didn't even make the public markers' Loan had to cough up some cash on the 10th.
So, this week sees the second and final round to claim the champs bag, and also the last chance this year to post a lowest off the stick score for the year, as the final two rounds of the 380 cup are reserved for matchplay semi's and the final of Club Championships, and then we start the Summer Cup.
See Youn Boys On Saturday
Cheers
Robbo
