I would like to thank my mother for her love and support, my coaches Grant Garrison & Marty Ayers, my kids for telling my wife I am at work on my days off, my wife for not bothering me at work on my days off, Leftyhoges for running an awesome event, so much better than the
crappy first edition we had, this is way better as it doesnt rely on one lucky round to beat everyone, and for making sure SMS316 couldnt win it, Lagerlover for being himself and my confidant, Perry See Hoe for designing for me and easy course to play on, the 4-6 shot handicap adjustments against me clearly were not enough, AndyP for making the forum internet thingy work so well, Golfer69 and Shavey for being the first strangers to meet up with in carparks back in year 2000 kicking off the online meeting phenomem for axe murderers, Gary Tozer the master craftsman for assembling the finest set of clubs ever made, Ralph Maltby for designing the best heads ever made, Gerry Hogan for designing the best shafts ever made, the McConchie brothers for making the best grips every made, i have no idea who made my ferrules, Waddzy for being a champion opponent, its pretty hard to have that many quads in a single round, SMS316 and Leftyhoges for playing out some 'thrilling' final round matches if indeed they were live, whoever gave me an almost gave me a 10/8 win, sorry I cant remember who that was, The Champ for not playing (he cant have played, at right?), Solarman and Hayesy for doing the draw, and dont worry I dont hold a grudge(usually), Ashes, we cant have winner if nobody gets the spoon, Gold Coast driving range Helensvale for providing decent balls, mats and mosquito repellant, the Pawan Hujan (rain doctor man) for keeping the rain away from me, Thousands for Balls man for giving me nice srixons to play with, Ferrins for reminding me that I am not insane, Shazza for reminding me to 'go forth and multiply blakey' whatever that means, Henno for protecting Narhwahls, the english language and the unsuspecting public from journalists (isnt he a journalist), and Richard Attenborough for his tips on how to prepare good acceptance speeches.
