With the start of the new season, we had a great turn out on Saturday. With the announcement of a new ecclectic comp, fees payable and the usual Saturday morning collections, it was a very busy start for the new tee masters, as cash was flying everywhere... Note to self " I'm busy in March next year ! "
Winning the Mike and Cath Smith Monthly Medal for March, is the bloke who only comes out once a year... Doug ' Santa ' Glover. As usual, when he does come out to play, takes a quick look at his handicap, complains he can't play to that, and then goes out and wins the day. Douggie won the day with a nett 64, doing just enough to hold on and win. Well played Doug, see ya next year then I suppose....
Grade winners this week were Steve ' Half price ' Belcher in A Grade with a nett 65, and ' It could've have been mine ' Kymbo wins B Grade with a nett 65. Rob ' I need some better playing partners ' Gardner wins C Grade with his nett 66.
Plate winners this week were Klaus ' Robbo brings me down to his level ' Ebdrup in A Grade with a nett 81, and Super ' 2 in a row ' Mann takes it for B Grade with a nett 81. Paul ' I wish I had an excuse ' Hughes takes the the C Grade plate with a nett 80.
Finally, it was good too see that this club can still produce a couple of team players, even if it did take the Vice President himself to step up and show the way... That's right sportsfans, yours truly coughed up for the pleasure of a 1,2,3,4...5 putt on the 7th !!! Well it was going to be only a 3 putt and pickup off the back of my putter, until Klaus yelled out that it was stroke, and as a result I quickly pulled my hands out of the way.... The other team player this week was the Joffinator... Joff managed to find the tee sand box off his drive on the 4th, only to watch it come back and fall short of the ladies tees. Smart move doing it on the front 9 tho' mate, a quick stop after the 8th, a cheap six pack, and eveyone's happy.
And it was appropriate that Billy ' Mars Bar ' Bollard waited until the Mardi Gras weekend to express to the Club his new love. Whilst waiting on the first tee, Bill decided to share with everyone that he " Loves The Knob ".... Despite outbreaks of laughter and a few " WHAT THE F... " calls, the human Bollard repeated himself. Maybe next time William, a simple re phrasing and context may help avoid the confusion, as a few blokes were about to finally congratulate you on coming out after all these years of hiding...
Fees still due, thanks to those that have already paid... Ecclectic money $5 also due if you want to be a part of it. Anyone wanting in on Kempies Footy tipping Comp needs to supply him with their email this weekend for the link to be sent through.
See you boys on Saturday
Cheers
Robbo
