2011 Champs player list and deposit details (Pelican Waters)

[AndyP]

If I don't get to play with my chums (which aren't many), then I'll just book my own group at pelican.

[BrisVegas]

Will there be a ceremonial starter? ie. golfer69 bunts one down the first to get things rolling.

Will there be a "marquee" group of 2011 major/classic winners?

Will the former champs have a parade of honour before kickoff ?

Will we have an official starter (peteyd?) with microphone to introduce the players onto the tee, together with a brief bio for the gallery ie. post count, WITB, hcap, best results this year, prior champs results....

[peter_rs]

some ideas there..

Or the presentation of the 2011 Champs trophy to dc68 prior to hitting off.

[jaybam]

What. So he can give it to you on Sunday arvo???

[Ferrins]

Don't know about Saturday, but will be in the last group on Sunday.

[Jarro]

Will Meatloaf be performing ?

[td42t]

Being a first timer I don't care who I play with.
I proberly fit into all but the homo catagory, but its usually a 8-10 bourbon can trip around a golf coarse so I'll have my own fun if I have to.

I have memories of someone failing to finish a round after going too hard too fast and Peter_rs having to walk the remaining holes on his own.

[Iain]

I have memories of someone failing to finish a round after going too hard too fast and Peter_rs having to walk the remaining holes on his own.
I have memories of someone driving straight into a palm tree a couple of years ago!!

[dc68]

That was the year I was drawn with ****s.


I vaguely remember you downing a bottle of jimmy and me smashing a dozen or so tins.... Ahhh the no memories.

[Ferrins]

I would like to pay the full amount for the 2 days of Pelican. Having already paid the deposit, do I pay the balance or the full amount? There was rumour of the deposit being used for prizes, so I am unsure.

[Bruce]

Your memories are purely circumstantial. :)

[dc68]

Your memories are purely circumstantial. :)


You mean apart from the photograhic evidence?

[Ferrins]

dystychiphobia The fear of accidents with such people who suffer this anxiety is that they might injure themselves or other people or damage property or the environment.

I have this with driving golf buggies

[td42t]

I have memories of someone failing to finish a round after going too hard too fast and Peter_rs having to walk the remaining holes on his own.

I'll finish.
Thats how I play ever week.
It's when I don't drink the golf suffers.
Just have to be careful topping up the next day. That has caught me out a few times!

Marty

[peter_rs]

Good to hear but it was more than ten cans

[dc68]

I'll finish.

Marty

You sir, will fit in very well.

[AndyP]

Aren't any of you participating in Ocsober?

[jaybam]

I cant believe any of you remember anything :mrgreen:

[td42t]

Aren't any of you participating in Ocsober?

How dare you.
Even mentioning something like that is a sin.

Marty

[Eag's]

So what's the go people, are we going to bus it to the pub on the Sat night?
I vote yes :)

[dc68]

Sounds good... I really liked Bribie, playing pool in a pub atmosphere awesome night.

[Eag's]

Yeah I saw that Rich, I was just trying to see what the consensus was.

[Daves]

Yep, sounds good, after some after round lingering in the Crown Plaza lobby to perve on the Bride's maids!;)

I presume there is a TAB there Rich?

[timah!]

Tav sounds good!

[KristianJ]

Ditto on Tav.

[Courty]

I'll be available to drive also.

[BrisWesty]

Karaoke! Come on you know you want to!

[AndyP]

I'll be available to drive also.
My car, if you want. It will fit three skinny blokes in the back.

[Eag's]

The pub it is 8-)

[damoocow]

Sounds good... I really liked Bribie, playing pool in a pub atmosphere awesome night.

For me the best parts of the Champs have been the communal Saturday nights - the Bribie Pool Comp and Parmigiana Night/the Kooralbyn Lawn Bowls adventure/watching Tezza eat a huge main meal Steak entree, seafood platter for 2 and then a couple of desserts down at the Tweed/Pelican's coins against the wall,Shavey's neverending card games etc etc etc - happy to go anywhere...

[sms316]

I vaguely remember you downing a bottle of jimmy and me smashing a dozen or so tins.... Ahhh the no memories.
Yep.

Eagle on 18 after drinkin said bottle of Jim.
Poidda's rope incident.
Finishing so far ahead of the group behind that we had time to go back to our rooms, have a shower, a couple more drink and then return to the 18th green and see that they were only halfway down the hole. Who were those slow bastards? They really should be at the tail of the field for life.

[Bruce]

It's a shame your eagle was witnessed by so few sms. Just groups 1 and 2....

I will only play cards if there is a limit of one buy back in and preferably zero. Playing with Shavey turns into an endurance test otherwise and one I am not prepared to endure.

[BrisVegas]

nice work dicky. $50 vouchers over the bar? Or is that a given?

[Eag's]

Love your work Rich :smt023

[AndyP]

Do you want to start a new thread with all the details, 69er, so it gets the attention it deserves? Good work.

[sms316]

Just (no pun intended) for the record, I've looked at doing the draw a couple of ways based around a discussion with PeteyD.

The main priority being to keep it mixed.

Given the constructive and wanker feedback received (personal or otherwise) I've asked for the handicaps to see what that would look like against a mixed/newbie draw.

Mixed/Newbies being having visitors in each group then trying to have the other players spread so that those that they play regularly together don't at the Champs. (On the Saturday at least)

Keep in mind also based upon the first random draw I've done, it was then compared against what Shavey has done up for Coolum on the Friday to reduce the double up for two days, and on that random there was only one.

Having only received the handicaps for the players this morning, Ill look at it doing this one tonight to compare.

This done yet?

[AndyP]

I'm not playing with anyone wearing ugly pants.

[PeteyD]

Kids ok at the pub for dinner?

[AndyP]

Kids ok at the pub for dinner?Facepainting!!!

[Daves]

Kids ok at the pub for dinner?

It is a Tavern, plus there is a Kid's section on the menu, so I would say almost certainly yes.

[Marto65]

Kids ok at the pub for dinner?

Depends how you cook 'em.

[PeteyD]

Medium Rare

[just]

They even have a seniors menu for Daves.

[Eag's]

What about wheelchair access? ;)

[Marto65]

Medium Rare

Then they should be fine, although I prefer the slow cooker.

[sms316]

Depends how you cook 'em.
I hear Dennis Ferguson likes them rare.

[PeteyD]

You'd know

[sms316]

Negative, Ghost Rider.

[petethepilot]

I'm sorry to say that Supo67 can't get down from Japan for the champs! A sorry saga of a new job and a lack of staff are preventing him! This of course will save the bank accounts of those that covert his 'expensive' array of Japanese Golf clubs.

Pete

Shavey, can you amend the list please, I can't find the current one on the topic!

[PeteyD]

Damn that sux, bad luck Supo.

[timah!]

Bummer, I was looking forward meeting Supo. Maybe next year!

It's being finalised... just have a few people confirming over the next two days then all will be revealed.

[Ferrins]

Good 0

[PeteyD]

See doc tomorrow. Range session was mostly successful!! Fingers are crossed.

[Eag's]

Good luck Pete.

[Courty]

Good news, PD. Hope to see you on the course.

[damoocow]

Fingers crossed Pete

[PeteyD]

OK all good for playing cart golf from the doc. As long as I am careful etc. Bunt time :D.

However, I have the kids. This is not good for golf. Either need to take em out in the cart or sort out some sort of kid minding. Who else has kids there? Can I impose on someone?

[Ferrins]

Got a lockable trailer.

[PeteyD]

Thanks Ferret. Pretty sure Family Services would approve as long as it was in the undercover carpark.

[dc68]

Now that Pete is in I have no chance..... Redo the book!!!

[sms316]

Lamest favouritism dodge ever.

Pete is equal second favourite with goughy...........

Will you be able to get another cart from the club?

[Dotty]

Get them to drive Bruce's cart.

[PeteyD]

Will you be able to get another cart from the club?

Dunno might cost more too, bugga. plus if it is raining I can't take the kids out. Wife is working stupid night shifts on that weekend, sister has something on one of the days and can't look after the kids that day. She is pretty sure it is Saturday. Bit of time to sort it out.

[shavey]

So, would you like in mate as the masses are getting vocal 'requesting' the draw :)

[timah!]

He's in. Draw away!

[BroKar]

Draw would be cool, I have people to visit up there aswell so would allow me to plan

[Eag's]

This draw coming out or what??

[shavey]

Just love the anticipation :)

We are currently at 48 players for Pelican so if PeteyD plays (which we all want him too) this will obviously change things with a few 3 balls.

NK and I have worked together for Friday and Saturday draws so that nobody is playing with the same people either day whilst mixing the groups up as best we can. Just a little more time please people...

[Eag's]

No worries mate, just keen as mustard ;)

[AndyP]

I don't mind if I don't find out until next Saturday to be honest.

[shavey]

I don't mind if I don't find out until next Saturday to be honest.

Great idea AP, let's read them out on the first tee instead... now that WOULD be something different but don't think the status quo would approve..

[AndyP]

No, they wouldn't, but we don't want people to turn up just for their tee time only. It would be good to get another group photo.

[BroKar]

I'm sure there will be plenty of opportunity for photos

[AndyP]

Actually, there won't. Getting 48/49 people in the one spot at the one time is not easy.

[Dotty]

I hope I'm not paired with Scott Laycock.

I've heard that he takes an instant dislike to playing partners, and buggars off without even a handshake at the end.

:)

[PeteyD]

Put in me a group of 3 so I can look after the kids if I can't offload them please.

[BroKar]

Ok Sunday seeding, make a time for it mate, people will need to know who they are playing with, 4pm at bar on Saturday

[Ned]

Put in me a group of 3 so I can look after the kids if I can't offload them please.

Yeah mate already planned.

[timah!]

Can we get the club to play announcers?

[peter_rs]

Ok Sunday seeding, make a time for it mate, people will need to know who they are playing with, 4pm at bar on Saturday

U will still be on the course

[damoocow]

Dunno might cost more too, bugga. plus if it is raining I can't take the kids out. Wife is working stupid night shifts on that weekend, sister has something on one of the days and can't look after the kids that day. She is pretty sure it is Saturday. Bit of time to sort it out.

I am more than happy to walk the course [prefer that to cart] if I am paired with someone the same we could donate a cart to Pete...

[PeteyD]

I am in a 3 Damo, so all good. Hopefully they stay with my sister on the Sunday.

[goughy]

No, they wouldn't, but we don't want people to turn up just for their tee time only. It would be good to get another group photo.

10:25 - group foto in front of the practice green. No pikers!

[AndyP]

Nah, bugger it. I'll sleep in and rock up at midday.

[Outcast]

10:25 - group foto in front of the practice green. No pikers!

Clothed or Naked?

[goughy]

Maybe do something like this! Photo's from one of the tri guys of the undie run at the Hawaii Ironman. We'd look similar?? Check out the heart rate monitors!!

Yeah great 2 hours between that and my tee time. How about you all hang around until everyone finishes?

[just]

I'm out, somethings come up. If someone would like my accommodation with Daves and goughy, just let me and them know, otherwise I'll just give one of them the cash to either pay for the accommodation or put in the prize pool. Courty I have your practice sticks, or whatever they are called, I'll make sure they get to you.

Enjoy the weekend everyone.
Cheers
Just

[AndyP]

Wow!

Wow!
Did Steve Jobs die again?

That's a bummer just. Hope everything is ok?

Actually, it's another false 'Wow'. I thought it might be coming.

Soft ****. At least the whinging about the draw should cease now.

[just]

That's a bummer just. Hope everything is ok?
Yeah fine mate, other things have come up for the weekend so I had to make a few decisions, can't be everywhere and I'll catch with most at the Ballina thing hopefully. On the up side should be able to get rid of the three balls.

[just]

Actually, it's another false 'Wow'. I thought it might be coming.
You know what my family was doing before I did, your good. I always thought you were though.

[AndyP]

You should have asked me before you made the deposit. Sorry you can't make it.

[Iain]

Sorry to hear you can't make it Just.

[Bruce]

Bugger. Hope to catch up with you some other time Just.

[jaybam]

Just you suck. Can I have the v steels now your not going to the boot sale?? Nah just kidding. Hope all is good and sorry you can't make it.
Jaybam








WOW !!!!!!!!!!

[Eag's]

Damn Just :(

[just]

Hold the phone, theres a slim chance I can make this. My brother may not be stopping Brisbane on his way to the RWC in NZ. The good thing is I won't have to do the family thing for his birthday and I can come to the champs, the bad thing is he's leaving me to tell my parents if he doesn't stop at home on the way through. Whens the latest I can do a Ferrins change my status and let you know? Should know by Sunday.

I was trying to swap groups to an early one so I could go home for a couple of hours on Saturday for his birthday and then come back late evening, when Neddy said that shavey won't entertain changing groups the family thing came first but it may not be a prob at all. Huzzah! FTW!

If anyone says wow I'll kick you in the nuts!

[shazza_rs]

"WOW".... only because you can't kick me in the nuts ;)

[Ned]

Wow, if that's the case no change to the draw then.

[just]

Wow, if that's the case no change to the draw then.
Don't need one if he doesn't come and I'll just change groups on the day.

[Daves]

Wow, Goughy and I were in the process of the offering your spot to the cart girl! And you will have to actually turn up to attempt the kick!

[Captain Nemo]

So im still in the first groupo???:-s

[just]

Wow, Goughy and I were in the process of the offering your spot to the cart girl! And you will have to actually turn up to attempt the kick!
Pfffft, haven't seen a decent cart girl on a SEQ course yet. Wendy the MILF at Palm Meadows was the closest.

[Ned]

So im still in the first groupo???:-s

Yep.

[Johnny Miller]

Wow!

[just]

So im still in the first groupo???:-s
You can take my spot in the last on the day, I'll be jumping in one of the first 3 balls anyway if I make it.


Wow!
Which major did you treasure more Johnny?

[Johnny Miller]

Which major did you treasure more Johnny?
My 1973 United States Open victory at Oakmont of course. Just listen to the NBC coverage at the Open every year and listen to the rest of the guys blow smoke up my ass throughout the entire coverage.

[just]

Being a Mormon did your tight underwear help you to victory?

[Marto65]

Has Craig Parry had the chance to punch you yet?

[Outcast]

Shavey,

transferred balance for Pelican Waters tonight, sent you a PM to confirm

[just]

My brother is not stopping at Brisbane now, the Wallabies win confirmed that for him. I'm confirmed.

[just]

A confirmed ****. Plus a starter.

[PeteyD]

That didn't need confirmation. Glad you are back in the mix Just.

[goughy]

Friday night- are we just gonna say get some pizzas or something? And if we do and it's not being used can we eat them out on the terrace? Or is that poor form? Shavey?

[shavey]

Friday night- are we just gonna say get some pizzas or something? And if we do and it's not being used can we eat them out on the terrace? Or is that poor form? Shavey?

Very poor form goughy and wouldn't be permitted, especially with yours truly involved.

I'll still have the apartment everybody can lob up to on the Friday night which will should be large enough for 20+ providing we keep things quiet...

[shavey]

OP updated with tee and DMD info...
