View Full Version : Fav 'moment' from the Champs

Thought we should have a spot for the moments!

So many of mine involve Grunt! One will have photo's courtesy of Eag's so I'll wait till he posts it up.

First one was on a hole with canal on the left with houses there. At one house there was a pool almost on the canal and in it a couple of rather stunning women (what we could tell from the distance) in bikini's strutting around and in and out of the pool. Grunt really struggled with his focus during his shot and in the end did his best to land his ball in their pool. Now Grunt, you should know that if you're looking far over your left shoulder while attempting to hit a ball then that is where your ball is going to go!

The second was on the back nine. Grunt lines up and swings his driver looking like he's trying to launch his ball into the stratosphere. Hits the ground behind the ball and clear bounces his driver over the ball and misses it completely. I thought for once I was gonna finish an ozgolf round without rolling on the ground in laughter but I was wrong!! Thanks for a couple of choice moments from the weekend Grunt! That's what ozgolf rounds are for me. A chance to have some fun...

That was the funniest thing I have seen on a golf course in a long time :lol:
He then proceeded to do a happy gilmore and nail it down the middle :smt038

My group, Eags, Chop Chop and Billy - were greeted by a course marshall on Saturday walking off 18 (our 9th). I was ready to give him a serve if he told us to hurry up....

"Gents, sorry to say this, but you're playing too fast, if you could just slow it up a little that would be good as we have 2 groups still to go off the 1st tee"

I was wandering around in the scrub on 17th, (looking for someone elses ball of course, coz you cant lose a Vision UV ball) and i see a shiney ProV1. I think, i wonder if thats one of the 2nd hand ProV1's I sold someone.

Pick it up, and it has a logo "Tim Nelson", and yep, I remember that one, as there was at least a couple of these in the bunch I had.

Sold it back to Henno for a 6 Pack (plus interest), he was rather excited to get his favourite ball back.

and by the way, How much Red Cordial does Henno drink?

The Saturday gallery on 9 with the 2 groups playing in front of Jarro & Lucas' group.
20+ people roaring "get in the hole" as soon as the ball left the putter face, and then yelling "give us the ball" after they'd putted out.
Classic.

Henno and I walking off the 3rd on Saturday with 6s. Him with a 4 putt bogey, me with an up and down out of the bunker on the left greenside bunker.

Why did I slice into the rubbish on 5 on Sunday? Missed all of the above action.

I lost a daggy old 2nd hand ball on the 14th so it was a blessing in disguise that I got the new one (at start of round) back.

My fav moments at the champs was getting there and getting home. Lucky to have made it both times.

The funky little red car had been using water for a while, but nothing that a couple of cups of water added to the refill thingy before every drive didnt fix (had replaced almost everything you would to fix it). Had driven 100ks plenty of times with no worries before, but i decided to come up friday night just in case.

At 135clicks and amongst those Pine forests south of caloundra the temp needle skyrocketed. So I pull over and wait 20 mins and refill some water and limp the last 30ks or so to my destination. Bastard of a place to stop as the road is elevated so couldnt get very clear of the road, dangerous place indeed. Thanks to all the Ozgolfers that honked as they drove past circa 7.15-7.30pm

On sunday arvo left for what is apparently a 100 min drive home, I was feeling very lucky.

once on the highway Drove past a "Traffic Response Unit" vehicle helping a car, and thought "gee i might need you later". Yeah my prayer was answered, was about only about 40kms from the golf course and up the temp goes. I pull up the offramp north of Caboolture where the "Big Fish" petrol station is carefully hidden on the other side of the trees and take a 20min nap and next thing the Traffic Response Guy is tapping on my window.

He fills up my radiator with his bottle of water, and stuff me if my piddly little water bottles wouldnt have made any difference, the sucker was empty, what the hell? that hasnt happend before.

From that point i managed to drive 20-30 kms between each radiator tankfull, distance getting shorter each time. I also filled my 2 litre drinking bottle as well at petrol stations and that got me through all the gaps. Basically the water was pouring out the bottom of the engine as i was pouring it in.

All up a 100min drive took 4.5 hours. :neutral:

Took it to the mechanic today, and water pump is shot. And just to make me feel good I also have a spare old clunker ute, but the clutch was dodgy, so took that to another mechanic, and while we were checking it over, water starts leaking like crazy from the water pump.

Next year am gunna take the bus.

had an absolute ball all weekend.

Seeing Henno almost in tears after I pulled runner, runner for a higher diamond flush when he was all-in was brilliant.

Bruce's little hops and fist pumps when holing putts on day one was a highlight. Being such a nice bloke, it was hard to believe it was the same person when he let out a chorus of sensational four letter words after missing a short putt on the 12th.

Damo has to be close to the biggest burglar on Ozgolf. Although the score on Sat didn't show it, I'm sure he'll be off a lot lower than 18 come next years champs. Also a top bloke.

Peter_rs was my partner on day one and watching him tear up the front nine with 22 pts was a joy. He must have had sore shoulders from carrying me all day. We squared the punt that day and I had 20pts. He also slammed down his first can of JB in about half a hole. Impressive stuff.

I got pretty lucky on the poker table that night. Having Grunt to my left certainly helped. Dead set called anything all night. Thanks for the chips mate....

Got fairly pissy Sat night but they shut the bar just as I made the switch to Johnnie Walker. My liver was most appreciative come Sunday morning.

I played with Shavey and GC on Sunday and took the cash. Both top blokes and we had a good laugh all the way around. The 5th was the highlight of the day but the closer we got to the glass sided pool, the dirtier I felt as I'm pretty sure those girls were pretty young......

Shavey's gag on 17 was monumental and let me back into the game. Didn't want to say too much cos I knew he was fuming underneath it all.

30pts wasn't brilliant but came home reasonably well with 17 on the back. I've got to play on the Friday next year to get into some sort of form and get the crap out of my game.

Congrats to petethepilot who came back to win after copping a mouthful from one of the local old wankers before Sunday's round. That grumpy old prick was the only down side to the weekend.

Thanks to Shavey, the two Petes, Shaz and everyone else who was among the organisers.

Sorry I had to piss off early on Sunday. I plan to stay the Sunday night next year.

I had an absolute ball all weekend - comes very close to almost topping the legendary Kooralbyn Champs ! - for me I met some new Ozgolfers, renewed friendships with others, played some good and atrocious golf [often on the same hole] and played some of the worst pool imaginable. To all those I had a drink with or played with, I thank you for your company. BUT the funniest thing about these champs was Razaar's Chinese Caddy / Hairy Arms story....it was a cracker - I suggest at next years champs that he should repeat the story at the prize ceremony so all can enjoy it.

henno
18th November 2009, 11:30 PM
OK, I have thought long and hard about this, and I've come up with the following:

Friday - Pac Harbour:

- Being behind Jarro's group and getting to watch him hole out for eagle on the 1st.
- Pumping my drive over the bunker and (apparently) into the cart of Ned Kelly and Grunt. I found my ball perched on top a pyramid of sand in the middle of the fairway. "It was headed for the greenside bunker had it not hit the cart!". Took a wash. (And let the games begin.)
- Shavey's "suspended" ball in the fairway bunker, and brilliant recovery shot. (henno: "I think near that alignment pole would be a good spot to be from here". Shavey: misses the pole by inches.) The pic and vid doesn't do it justice, but here you go:

http://imgur.com/6WKXZs.png (http://imgur.com/6WKXZ.jpg)

And the video of his recovery (It looks unimpressive, as most good golf shots do, but that chuckle you hear at the end is Courty as shavey's ball finishes only inches from where he was aiming to land).:

SgwUnbEweTI

- Getting in for par all other times my ball was messed with. (Sand castle on the green, a pile of ice on another occasion.)
- Having to finish 3pts 3pts 3pts 2pts just to get close to taking shavey and courty's money. (Which we did, thanks to a 3-putt by shavey on 17.)
- Being first loser at poker... twice. I lost every hand I should have won and only won one decent hand, which I should have lost (sorry PeteyD).


Saturday - Pelican:

- First hole of the champs, beating SMS off the stick with some serious bullshit. Driver went nowhere into the wind, 3w too high, caught by wind into the shit right (6-inch deep grass in the trees). 100m to go, 8-iron slash through the grass to 2 feet, and an easy birdie.
- Hitting the 3rd in two and then 4-putting to bogey. (Shazza got birdie with her 180-straighty, safe lay-up, wedge close style.)
- Thinking I lost the side-bet to shavey with a scorching 20pts to his 21. A recount later on showed that shavey actually miscounted and had 20 pts, and I had written 5/2 instead of 5/3 for 21 pts. We decided to let the bet ride on Sunday.
- PeteyD at night. Seriously, how pissed was he? Hilarious. And full points for recovering pretty well all things considered.


Sunday - Pelican:

- Hitting the fairway bunker on the 10th with driver, 9-iron out perhaps another 90m up the fairway, 5-iron stiff, and a short putt for a second birdie on the hole in as many days (and my only two for the weekend).
- Getting a questioning by the drinks cart girl about my drinks in the esky after I asked her to top up my ice. If only the poker face I put on there had been as convincing on the previous two nights of actual poker.
- Moe's 7 GIR on the front 9 and just about walking away with 3-putt bogeys on every one. Not exactly a "highlight", but memorable nonetheless.
- Knocking away my ball after missing the putt for 6/1 on the 18th, only to have hasey remind me that I had two shots on that hole. Both shavey and I had 27 points to square the freaking bet yet again.
- Taking out 2009 Best Dressed. Pink shorts, shirt, shoes and shaft isn't gay at all... is it? (All I needed was one of Boz's finest balls.)

http://imgur.com/adyz1s.png (http://imgur.com/adyz1.jpg)

I'm sure there are hundreds more memories, but coaxing them out of the bowels of my mind after a solid few days on the turps is tough work.

The UNIT on the 8th hole. I took the photo a bit late but the lie was ugly. you can see the ball in line with the lip about 1/5th from the left edge of the photo, not enough height to get out I am afraid.

Dude, considering I won the second poker whatever you call it (even with your miracle hand) I think you might want to move that to Friday. Saturday I could not even read the cards. Mixing drugs and alcohol is good!!

We had free range balls and Pete saw 2 buckets at the doorway to the pro shop and picked one up. The guy had bought 2 and got all upset. PeteyD called pete back and he replaced it and the guy just went on about it. We were laying bets as they walked to the range if the fight would start before or after the bridge.

sunday, 4th hole I've rolled just into the front greenside bunker with no stance or backswing with a sw unless I hit it backwards away from the green. So I putted it onto the green and nearly sunk the up and down for par. Eag's thought it was a good shot from where I was but I don't think he realised I putted it at first! Got away with a bogey. Is that what you call an 'effective' 3 putt??

16th hole on Saturday. Gaz and me drive it in the centre about 230 m, SMS is another 40 metres further and Ned is 200 metres to the left after hitting a tree. Ned drives past his ball and drops SMS at his and returns to his ball. Gaz and me stand around waiting for Ned to play. We waited and waited - Ned is lost in thought staring at the buggy or staring at the ipod (which he can't live without). After waiting 5 mins and seeing no further action from Ned, I decide to hit and push it into the trees short right of the green. There is a loud thump from the direction of my shot and I immediately think I have nailed one of the carts in front. Turns out it was the esky lid of the drinks cart falling. The sound of my shot or the falling lid wakes Ned up and he finally gets a club out of his bag and plays.
After a search (and blaming Ned for my poor shot) I find the ball in a hole amongst the trees and with no shot other than to punch it into the greenside bunker. Holed the bunker shot for a birdie and killing Ned was forgotten.:D

Going on the text message G69 sent me at around 4pm saying he had 12 Carlton Draughts under his belt, I'm going to suggest he was BOG from 1800km away.

He may have been that. The 12am cutoff had a lot to do with it too. No 2am Virge golf talks this year. Also no shared bottles of Red with Jack.

Would have to be the first Champs where nobody did anything really worth reporting Rich. We were a very well- behaved bunch this year.
PeteyD was good entertainment later on though :lol:

Not sure if there was any favourite moment for me, was on the whole just a great all round event. Poker was fun until I got bored and bet myself out of the game.
Maybe the reason it was quiet was the people that fire everyone up were not there. If So who was it? G69, Jack or Flowergirl?

Now that I think about it, here is my memorable moment;

Grunt was driving us back to my place after the Sunday prezzos. We were behind a car full of 18 yo boys who were taking photos of us (holding their mobile phones through the sun roof). Grunt overtook them so I decided to hold up my mobile to take a pic from the passenger seat.

The passenger in the other car then proceeded to hold up a hand gun. :shock::shock:

If I could transfer the pic from my mobile to computer I would put the pic up.

I hope it was a fake, but even so it put me on the back foot for a second.

Was certainly different that incident.
They were poking the phone out of the roof from the point where we got back on the Bruce Highway. I though it was a car load of OzGolfers so I pulled up alongside. SMS then tells me they have a gun! Quickly got ahead of them. Was certainly a weird moment

MMS it to someone who can (I can, but I don't have the cable on me right now). Or email it if your phone can do that.

We had free range balls and Pete saw 2 buckets at the doorway to the pro shop and picked one up. The guy had bought 2 and got all upset. PeteyD called pete back and he replaced it and the guy just went on about it. We were laying bets as they walked to the range if the fight would start before or after the bridge.

Apparently he also abused Pete of something along the lines of possibly nicking his golf clubs as well.

Now that explains the real funny look I got from him long after the after the PetethePilot, and the SHUSH incident - he had two buckets of balls!

When i originally got to my spot on the range, there was already someone elses bag propped up against the bag holder i used, and buckets of balls everywhere, am pretty sure the bag was an ozgolfers, cos there was hardly anyone else there.

by the time i was ready to leave cos I had finished my bucket, most of the Ozgolfers had gone, and there is a bag in the same spot and a full bucket of balls underneath them, and he was hitting from the spot next to me.

So I am thinking one of us has might left his clubs behind, so I ask the grumpy old gun "are these clubs yours?"

So the poor old buggar was probably thinking one of us is gunna nick his clubs or bucket again :razz:

After I heard about it, I went to chat some to some of the other guys near him. But only during his backswing. I didn't want to push it too much though, as tempting as it was.

I'd like that pic and a rego number. We have some blokes in black that love doing the follow up visits :twisted::twisted:

Got reminded the other day of a job where an asian drug dealer threatened to shoot an off duty asian cop - he had a real rethink after the visit. Sight of a gun up close & personal makes you rethink your desire to threaten people.

Sunday - 6th Hole (Par 3) - dc68, Nudgee and BV watching yours truly go from front bunker to back bunker to back onto back edge of the green (about 50 feet from the hole).

dc68 - "aaahhh so lets see how good you are putting this one with the wedge"

NK - "normally pretty crap on the longer ones"

Short of the post, one 50 footer rolled for a single putt!!!!!!!!!:smt044

By the 17th hole all three of them were using the wedge for putting!!!8-)
