2011 Gavin Simms Memorial Cup

[Johnny Canuck]

Don't forget the Naga shirt *cough*.

[hocko]

Don't forget the Naga shirt *cough*.
Who must wear this?

[rubin]

Who must wear this?

It's mine for the Saturday. I will take great pleasure in passing it onto JC for the Sunday though ;)

[hocko]

It's mine for the Saturday. I will take great pleasure in passing it onto JC for the Sunday though ;)
Noice...are there any other perpetual items that are to be worn?

[Yossarian]

My butt plug but I won't be there to insert it.

[Shadesy]

My butt plug but I won't be there to insert it.

He plays off 22 doesn't he?

[hocko]

My butt plug but I won't be there to insert it.
You bring it all upon yourself dont you Yoss:twisted:

[Shadesy]

We need to get some cash in the bank for this guys, only Vic, lubin' and OMS have coughed up..........

And now Shadesy!

[Yossarian]

He plays off 22 doesn't he?

ha!

You bring it all upon yourself dont you Yoss:twisted:
Oh yeah.

[hocko]

You bring it all upon yourself dont you Yoss:twisted:


Oh yeah.
Do you think the Queenslanders are still confused?

[Cosmopolite]

good work Hockman! really amped about this only being a week away now, and today i hooked up with my boy and scored a weekend supply of Tremadol!

so watch out!!

might need some for my knee!

[Yossarian]

Probably!

[Johnny Canuck]

Nice sig, Yoss!

[tommyg]

Righto.... I'm paid up. Ready to take your money canuck.

[Johnny Canuck]

That's what she said.

[simmsy]

Every saturday night at Langtrees still hey JC.

[simmsy]

Just looking at the clunt golf course and realized it only has 3x par 3's. Do we just want to dbl up on the 16th. Good fun par 3 and near the end of the day.

[Johnny Canuck]

Sounds good. If it doesnt go off, nearest in 3 on 18.

Best hole for long drive is probably 15.

[simmsy]

I thought perhaps 5? Its quiet wide and slightly elevated tee position.

[simmsy]

At the end of the day its King Hocko's game so what ever you think Hocko.

[hocko]

Happy to go with whatever all are happy with.

[Yossarian]

17 would be the perfect hole for long drive.

[simmsy]

Your a Thinking kind of a guy arent you Yoss.

[Johnny Canuck]

5 is good, but it brings corner cutting into play if I remember it correctly. Hmmmm. Maybe it is better. 15 might not necessarily be a driver hole as it is pretty much a 3 shot 5 due to poor design.

Let's do 5. We will all hit driver and it will give rube's the opportunity to hit it over a house.

[Zeusgolf]

good work Hockman! really amped about this only being a week away now, and today i hooked up with my boy and scored a weekend supply of Tremadol!

so watch out!!

[Golfnut]

5's good. I don't know about hitting a house though.

Also - I think tiger tees are good for Sunday ;)

[Yossarian]

A most and least balls lost at the cut award.

[Johnny Canuck]

We always play back tees at Champs.

[rubin]

We always play back tees at Champs.

We didn't play off the tips at kb earlier this year......

[Yossarian]

We didn't play off the tips at kb earlier this year......

Do you feel the back tees would have helped with the scoring?

It was because we were in the middle of a comp field I believe

[rubin]

I do actually.

And I remembered the reason why as soon as I posted it.

[Yossarian]

Cool.

[simmsy]

yeah i find hitting off the tips helps my game along really well.

[Shadesy]

What's the NAGA get again?

[simmsy]

Pink Belt, Maxibon Shirt & 5 mins behind the sheds with their choice of Lubin or Yoss! :shock:

[rubin]

There's no choice - its Yoss and his butt plug

[MegaWatty]

There's no choice - its Yoss and his butt plug

Both of you? Wow!

Herpies, spit ring, gonarrhea. And all that before the sunday behind the sheds the way you've been talking yourself up.

[hocko]

The "CUP" is now in my possession!

[simmsy]

pics?

[Golfnut]

Hocko, put your bank details in the OP.......I've looked through the last 4 pages of dribble and still can't find it if it's there.

[Shadesy]

The way I am swinging it, I may as well just get pissed...

I'm a 24 handicapper trapped in a 12's body!

[TourFit]

hocko...are you sure about "best gross"?

We only have 12 guys (sorry, 11 and a girl) and it essentially eliminates nearly HALF the field! We'll be playin' a non stroke event, so gross will be hard to calculate with wipes etc

I'd rather see the money split into the 8 NTP's (+$5 each) and an extra tenner for 2nd.

[simmsy]

The canuck is gonna unleash all mighty on you with that kind of talk.

In all honesty i think there is only one guy consistent enough to win the gross, but i know he'll have a cry if we dont have best gross in there. It is an interesting question raised by fit though, how is gross gonna be counted? While canuck will get to scoring points on all holes except for the occassional missed putt, i know other possible contenders, fit, niff, hocko, daz will all have a few blow up holes over the weekend.

Much like the LD i dont really care, im happy to be playing golf without having to go home to the missus and im no chance of taking out either so ill let the grown ups work it out.

[TourFit]

Reckon it's silly to have a best gross in a non-stroke event...when the idea is for 12 people to have some fun and banter.

And a hefty $50 prize, for a relative few, is a bit pointless. There is such a wide handicap gap. Make it smaller perhaps, but really, I don't see the point.

BTW...I'm paid up too.

[Shadesy]

Fair call fit... Perhaps have it but make it $10-$15?

Compromise?

[simmsy]

Shadesy where has your game gone mate?
You were pretty good at Harty the other week.

[rubin]

Fair call fit... Perhaps have it but make it $10-$15?

Compromise?

Spot on mate. It's not like it's something the whole field has a realistic chance at picking up. Everything else IMO is fairly even.

[Johnny Canuck]

25 gross, 25 least putts.

[hocko]

How about no one pays anything and no one gets any prizes?

Is there not enough in it for people yet?

[hocko]

Agreed, all pay into:
Goldfire Investments Pty Ltd
BSB; 036-077
Acc No; 395957

OK
For Golfnuts eyes only.

[hocko]

And the nett overall winner is not like some of the players have a chance at either.
I think we should reward good golf.

[rubin]

Fair point.

[Johnny Canuck]

And the nett overall winner is not like some of the players have a chance at either.I think we should reward good golf. Honestly, I don't think I have much of a shot next weekend at the net. Playing off 4 at The Cut, an unforgiving course that I don't know well at all is a recipe for disaster. The winning score for the weekend will probably be around 70 plus. I would be happy with 30 at The Cut. I don't think I am going under par at the Lakes. Besides, only Cosmo is allowed to change things ;).

[Shadesy]

I reckon I'll have 53 for the weekend!

[Johnny Canuck]

Beer?

[hocko]

I will be lucky to shoot 60.

[TourFit]

But best gross...really? All of us have a chance in the NETT result, what is what Champs is all about. Rewarding 'good golf' IS THE NETT RESULT!!! Gross has nothing to do with it.

C'mon hocko, we ALL know what you've done/are doing, and we ALL sincerely appreciate it... and it is NOT a disparaging remark, just viewing it from a different angle.

In the past it has been nutted out between ALL the people there.

[Shadesy]

Beer?

Great call... I am going to equal the number of beers for every point on Saturday... Although of I hit them like them today I might remain sober

[hocko]

You lot decide who gets what, to be honest i really don't give a toss right now!

[tommyg]

Damn guys.... aren't we all trying to get the best gross score we can over the weekend? Surely whoever gets that should get a prize? I dont see the issue. It maybe shouldnt be the biggest prize but shouldnt he (or she) who plays the best golf get rewarded? I reckon canuck will go to sh*t and blow out to a terrible score leaving the gross prize up for grabs....

[Johnny Canuck]

Thanks. Dickhead :).

It will only hurt if Nuffie wins it.

[rubin]

I reckon before this turns into a shit fight/balls up/cluster ***/ or whatever - Hocko is the man getting off his ass and organising everything, the man has a right to decide the prizes breakdown. Personally, if it was me in the same situation (and I've also had my fair crack at some things over the last few pages) I would have turned around and told all of us to *** ourselves and to organize it ourselves.

Secondly, we are not PGA pro's, at the end of the day, it's 11 guys and a girl (that sounds a little wrong, but moving on...) going down south for a weekend for a bit of drinking and the odd golf game. LIGHTEN UP! There is no need for this tension before what is meant to be a fun weekend.

Finally, if it's going to cause problems (which it seems to be doing) do we really need to have prize money/prizes? The winner is getting a trophy, the naga gets right embarrassed by having to wear the outfit, so anything else is a bonus. Re-reading the last 5 or 6 pages, all of us sound like spoilt little children who haven't gotten their way.

Hocko's done a damn fine job of organising it, with no assistance from anyone else.

My 2 cents, the prizes stay as Hocko has described. No further discussion is needed.

[rubin]

And I'm off my soapbox now. :D

[Shadesy]

Are we down south yet....am I drunk yet!

[idgolfguy]

Democracy does not really work! Someone should be in charge. I vote Hocko being given prefentialvoting rights.

Don't care about the prizes.

While golf is a handicapped system, handicaps don't count when we are talking the best player. The Cut being what it is, it is going to be the best leveller. Credit to Hocking for picking the course.

I like the idea of a prepaid sum for prizes, everybody is in fairly

[hocko]

Thanks. Dickhead :).

THAT is just dead set funny

However, we are all paying for prizes so we all get a say.
No one said that i needed to listen though:)

I honestly don't care about prizes either, i haven't played in weeks and i had to give 6 months notice to get the time off so i am happy enough to play 3 days of golf with people who appreciate the game and the company.

Commie!

[tommyg]

So how does one win this prestigious NAGA award? Is it worst off the stick or least handicapped points? Depending on the handicap i negotiate, and how much booze i swallow, im in the position to be in the running for champ and NAGA. Having never played in any kind of comp before i"ll be dissapointed if i dont win one of them. I plan to come home with either the cup or the pink belt. And a massive hangover.....

And canuck, i wasnt being facetious, I really do think you'll be rubbish.

[TourFit]

He really does think you're a dickhead too.

[rubin]

Basically - you have to be the shittest player for the weekend. We play stable ford, so least points for each day, and overall for the weekend.

Let me know if u want some pointers ;)

[TourFit]

M.e.n.t.o.r.

[simmsy]

Wow i go out for a great dinner at Rockpool last night and look at all the fun ive missed out on.

Hocko, u da man. You are financing this entire weekend. What you have proposed is good, no needto change anything. The difference between previous weekends and this one is that previously we have all paid for evenly (accomm,food,drink,green fees and so on) between all of us. This weekend is graciously being paid for by someone else.

Hocko this weekend you are King, i will still kick your ass in the skins though. If ANYONE thinks the prize distribution isnt fair or to their liking they can simply stay with their family next weekend rather than having a great weekend watching Shadesy unhinge at everyturn.

[MegaWatty]

You like Rockpool, Simmsy? I rate it super high.

[hocko]

Surprised you can afford entry fee for next weekend Simmsy after going to Rockpool!
Last time i went in Melbourne the cashier gave my wallet an enema.

[MegaWatty]

Worth every cent.

[simmsy]

Yeah mate well up there. I havent eaten in alot of high end places when travelling, but for Perth outstanding.
Had the 80day rib-eye. Oh my ****ing god!

Didnt see Tiger but certainly alot of peoplemiling around looking for him and tv crews.

[simmsy]

$1200+ for 6 of us. Dont feel it was expensive. Easily the best steak i have ever had. It was just 10 fold better than any other steak i have had. Great menu (extensive) wine list solid and entrees and sides really cool.

Man i wanna go back there tonight.

[MegaWatty]

The service and atmosphere is supreme as well.

My 2 cents, the prizes stay as Hocko has described. No further discussion is needed.

In terms of only a 'few' players having a chance to take a best gross prize, I think lots more ppl would be in the race for it this year IMO and not just the usual suspects.

JC and I have had limited match form under our belts, so lots of ppl including Hocko, Fit, Daz even IDGG or Shades on a hot streak could come into this. But still I'm happy to go along with what Hockster decides, as he is the one in charged and organised so much already. This weekend is all about good times, good golf or bad. Good golf is just an added bonus. To me anyway, those things are even more important than winning $$$. What we are getting is one heck of a good value for money golfing weekend, courtesy of someones great gesture.

If JC really wants a gross prize, then I'm happy to agree to some sort of side 'bet' between us over the sat/sun as I know how ultra-compeditive Sorrocks is. We have had his habit of either bringing out the best 'or worst' golf in one other over the last few joules we have had. It's just a suggestion. I agree with his comments about us needing to shoot par/sub-par scores to be in it for the net - an extremely tough ask indeed, though not impossible, particularly at Dunsborough as that track sets up real nice.

The Cut is going to be very tough off our low caps (JC - 4 and me 6) if the wind blows. Have played only one round there previously but I know a bit more about how to play some of these holes now. Still it will be tricky, 5 holes on that second nine are difficult to keep it in play. I'm looking fwd to the challenge just as much as JC probably is. To be honest, I really dont know how we will go, but I'm as usual gonna be giving it my all, and going down swinging no matter what.

[MegaWatty]

Highly.

[hocko]

Lets look at the spread;
JC playing off 4 and in no form.
Nuff off 6 playing more golf than the rest of us.
Hocko off 7 playing no golf so no form guide
Toufit off about 9 or 10 with bad feet.
Daz off about 10 or 11? he has a bad back and may not even play.
Shades off 12 and will still be drunk.
IDGG the dark horse!

I think 4 guys (1/3) of the field have a reasonable chance of winning the gross.
The other 8 (2/3) of the field have every chance to take out the nett event.

Someone do the maths and tell what is fair?

[Nuffie]

Nuff off 6 playing more S#!+ golf than the rest of us.


Edited, just ask IDGG how my forms tracking 8-). More bogeys hangin' around than a dogfight ATM. Maybe it's living near a RAAF base that's causing it???

With a bit of luck and the WITB sorted out now, maybe this will shoot a few of them out of the sky and some birdies will once again acquire the airspace (hole space).

[simmsy]

Sounds all good.

[Johnny Canuck]

IDGG - Dark Horse. Funny.

[Nuffie]

Tourfit off about 9 or 10 with bad duck feet.
IDGG the dark horse!

Edited, AND throw in a jack russel (with an ET's head).

This is definitely not a 3 horse race!

Also lets not forget Golfnut the Italian Stallion :)

[Johnny Canuck]

6 points after 7. 2 horse race

[hocko]

6 points after 7. 2 horse race
Choppa!!!!

[Johnny Canuck]

After 8.

This just keeps getting better and better!
Is the weather bad?

[Johnny Canuck]

No. I am. Lipped out eagle. Tap in bird for 9 in 9.

[Shadesy]

No. I am. Lipped out eagle. Tap in bird for 9 in 9.

Beat my back 9 (kb front9) yesterday! 8 points!

[hocko]

Are you dropping the anchor for next week?

[Johnny Canuck]

It will have no effect, unfortunately.

Just lipped eagle chip and took par. Day is getting worse. I need a track with only par 5s.

[Yossarian]

Should move to Gosnells.

I've heard that for the $$$ it is average...4 people I know (all in the business, and two of whom I've worked with) have been there and came away disappoint. It will also make a $1 million LOSS for the year!!!

IMO, The Loose Box is still better, and the new Amuse in East Perth is just FANTASTIC! 12 course degustation + matched wine for $200pp. I'd go there long before Rockpool. But then, that's just me.

[Johnny Canuck]

Neighhhh! Ger?

[Shadesy]

Hocksman i paid last night with the prizes... Or even Friday!

Can u check u got it?

[simmsy]

Fit until youve been there hard to comment. Simply brilliant!

For some reason people find it offensive to pay $70 for a steak ive paid $45 for steak i couldnt eat. The 6 of us all found it fautless and the other two couples are very well off and do that sort of dining reguarly. So i guess its up to what you like.
Its currently booked out 10 weeks in advance for saturday nights so i guess if it cant make money now their stuffed.

Certainly heaps of staff, havent seen that many at a restaurant for a while. We had 3 wait staff on our table all night.

[rubin]

Fit is right in that it will make a loss for the first year - that's because the setup costs were so high to begin with. It is not forecast to make a loss in its second year (In fact they expected and budgeted for more of a loss than what they will have apparently).

I also agree with simmsy, the steaks - particular the well aged ones - are like nothing I've ever had before.

[simmsy]

80day rib-eye! OMFG!! I just wet myself again.

[hocko]

Hocksman i paid last night with the prizes... Or even Friday!

Can u check u got it?
I will have a look tomorrow, my bank loves to invest this money over the weekend and not let me have it until the working week begins.

[Johnny Canuck]

80day rib-eye! OMFG!! I just wet myself again.Adult diaper time OMS?

[Johnny Canuck]

Mike will be loving the randomness of this thread. Good work on getting Fit off the gross talk. Distract him with food!

[simmsy]

Homer-like.

[simmsy]

Adult diaper time OMS?

Wore them last night as I knew I was too shit faced to get out of bed to make it to the dunny.

Yeah - getting old now.......

And no, so they can control their own incontinence.

[simmsy]

hey anyone got some Vision UV balls? IDG? ive got one of the UV torches from Boz and 1 UV pill, so if anyone has any ive got the torch. i feel it will give me a decisive advantage in the midnight puttputt comp.

Does it work n the srixons as well?

[Johnny Canuck]

Yeah - getting old now.......And no, so they can control their own incontinence.It will never get old. Look at Yoss! The only person that needs to worry is the person on the bunk below Nuff.

[Yossarian]

Is this the bag order thread?

[simmsy]

Does it work n the srixons as well?

Not sure. Bring a cpl anyway.

[Shadesy]

Not sure. Bring a cpl anyway.

I'm bringing about 6! I would not suggest they work!

I'm currently having a putt off with the odyssey and the rife... The Rife may be out!!

From the wreckage of my game comes hope.... This week will be key!

[rubin]

Just throwing it out there - anyone keen for a "team" challenge at sanctuary?

[Johnny Canuck]

hey anyone got some Vision UV balls? IDG? ive got one of the UV torches from Boz and 1 UV pill, so if anyone has any ive got the torch. i feel it will give me a decisive advantage in the midnight puttputt comp.I will try and locate my glow ball as well as the two flashers.

[MegaWatty]

I have been lucky enough to sit at the chefs table at the original Rockpool for degustation. Awesome.

[Yossarian]

I will try and locate my glow ball as well as the two flashers.

Something could be made out of this.

Elaborate?

[idgolfguy]

Disco lights! I may have couple.Don't have any left. Checked with Boz to see if I can get a box.

[rubin]

Elaborate?

That's as far as i got. :D

Not Ambrose, but maybe highest scoring group (JC won't be there in the morning so it's 3 groups of 3). Maybe $5 from everyone and winning group takes all.

Doesn't have to be that, but something different and fun.

[simmsy]

Maybe winning group has diiner bought for them that night?

Do a russian s'ford scoring system?

[idgolfguy]

A mix of stableford scoring every six holes. Normal, Russian and something else like Irish or addition combined par scores.

[rubin]

Whats Irish stableford?

[simmsy]

Yeah go with that idg.

[Johnny Canuck]

Can't wait! Need to get oot early from Friday's corp day to make skins at capel.

[TourFit]

Hey guys (especially hocko)...I'm really sorry, but some issues have come up at work and I will have to skip the game at Sanctuary on Friday. Was really looking forward to this, but unfortunately there is little I can do at this stage.

I will be down late arvo/early evening though for fun and festivities.

Get down for the mini golf challenge, hopefully around 6pm if it is open. Glad you are working, more time for me to come in and play with your equipment, no homo, and reshaft my 5 iron.

[rubin]

call in sick!

[simmsy]

Shadesy i can't believe you are not coming down friday! you've been like a 10yo on Christmas eve for the last week.

get out of work and get your ass to bunbury.

[Shadesy]

Its not so much work but Family...leaving the little one alone all weekend with the wife is a hard thing both for me and the extra impact on her now she is working again...

I'm quite a catch you see!

Hard also to call in sick when you work with family members!

[idgolfguy]

Got a couple of dozen of UVs hopefully from Boz by Thursday.

[simmsy]

haha! awesome IDG! you are a true champ.

[Johnny Canuck]

Glow ball and one flasher located.

We'll show her the video's and pics from the weekend...just to prove what a catch you are!!!

[TourFit]

*HOLD THE PRESS*

I may be back in for the Friday game...I'll know for sure in the next day or so. Nothing definite yet, but it's looking OK.

Sorry aboot your 5 iron Canuck :)

[Johnny Canuck]

I'll come see you before then, Fit. I'll give you a shout beforehand.

You can relax and make us coffee. I can handle it.

[Shadesy]

The Rife is back... It was a close run thing!

[MegaWatty]

Fit. I'll see you on Wednesday. Just a quick glue. ;)

[simmsy]

Are you sure fit is the best guy to see about a quick glue? ;)

[hocko]

Hocksman i paid last night with the prizes... Or even Friday!

Can u check u got it?
Hasn't come through Shadesy.
Have a look in your account to see if it has come out.

[simmsy]

maybe he lowballed you Hocko?

[hocko]

He can't have, i am WA lowball KING.

[simmsy]

i think GN would like to contend for that title.

[Johnny Canuck]

You need to actually buy sometimes, so Hocko takes it.

Plus, Hocko will miss out on a $400 set of irons for $20. That takes skill.

Nut remains the tyre kicking champ though.

[Shadesy]

He can't have, i am WA lowball KING.

Can you pm me your number... It's definitely come out of my account!

[Johnny Canuck]

Call his company, easiest way. 9420 7201

[Johnny Canuck]

He is the only one so he will answer. Should have mentioned that.

[TourFit]

Fit. I'll see you on Wednesday. Just a quick glue. ;)

Mega...can you look out that Wishon book for me too please? Also, can you please bring some cashola as well...I'll need some for Champs :-s

Wow, a new release.

I hope they've addressed the flaws of the 15 previous versions.

[hocko]

Just waiting on Golfnut, Nuff and Daz.

[TourFit]

His handicap might be the only thing 'Nut doesn't ever lowball...that and the # inches he has!

Hocko...Daz is definately coming. Spoke to him on Sat. (Playing Friday, Sat, Sun + Accom Fri & Sat). It's just a case of getting him paid up beforehand.

[simmsy]

Shadesy's credit line still bad?

[Shadesy]

hmmmmm.....

Edit - Just Rang the Bank, looks like it has gone through!

Only 5 days late...Those Cayman accounts are strict!

[Eldrick]

this burgled yet?

[TourFit]

No...nor bungled either. Yoss is totally out of the loop. :)

That's what you get when ex-Army runs the show. Organisation, timing and efficiency.

We will be reporting for duty to Sgt Bilko Hocko at 1000hrs sharp, Friday.

the most important question.....

who are we jinxing as the Favourite to take this puppy out?

[Johnny Canuck]

the most important question.....who are we jinxing as the Favourite to take this puppy out? you, tommyg. The inflated cap guys.

[rubin]

you, tommyg. The inflated cap guys.

I still reckon IDG. Tommy - only if he can hold his alcohol. ;)

[MegaWatty]

Can anyone actually beat DC68?

[Shadesy]

you, tommyg. The inflated cap guys.

2 shots a hole sucks Hole!

[rubin]

2 shots a hole sucks Hole!

i only get 2 shots on 4 holes. but i try to make the most of them!

[Johnny Canuck]

IDG may not be able to handle his new, low cap.

Don't worry, Captain Canuck has a nice, pre champs write up planned. I'll cover everyone's chances and probably offended everyone at the same time.

Stay tuned to this station.

[rubin]

is anyone surprised?

[Shadesy]

But when you can reach most of them with a short iron and possibly get 5 points...

Or you could go 7,7, wedge and Still be putting for 4 points!!!!!

[rubin]

[Shadesy]

Supplies got for weekend!!!

[idgolfguy]

Also using new clubs, MP37s. Driver has been crap and both shoulders are very sore.

I am not going to be a factor in determining the winner or runners up.

[TourFit]

You can't just keep promoting yourself...we are led by Sgt Bilko Hocko and you therefore CANNOT outrank him. So Corporal Canuck it is!

I too will be using new sticks for Friday, Wishon 555C's and the Maruman with Nunchuck, we shall see how they go and decide whether they stay for the weekend.
I am taking 3 drivers, 2 sets of irons and a miriad of hybrids, also grips and glue.....just in case.

[Yossarian]

Did Golfnut end up putting down money with Sor-Rocks that he would make this weekend?

[Johnny Canuck]

He wouldn't include Friday night in the bet.

Are the Wishon's new, hocko? When did you pickup those? They are great looking heads.

I will be bringing down WAY less than that (for a change). Last couple of years I brought down a HEAP of stuff for guys to try, and no-one did! So it is 2 combo's of Driver/Fwy, 1 set of irons & wedges, and 4-5 putters.


Another haiku...

Golfnut present Friday night
Wife at home
Where is Canuck?

[rubin]

Fit - would you be able to bring the Odyssey and R7 that I left with you? If at all possible, would you be able to trim the odyssey to 33" as well?

[Johnny Canuck]

You guys suck. I will be bringing down 1 driver, 1 set of irons, 1 putter, etc. I might bring an extra lobby with a little more bounce, should the conditions warrant it.

4 to 5 putters? Why? Lots of throwing planned? Hocko is understandable, he'll break stuff.

That's less than I normally have in the ute at any one time...just to play at MLGC!

2 drivers, 2 fwy's, 1 hybrid, 1 set of irons, 4 putters. Minimalism at it's best.

[hocko]

Don't know, but he has paid for the weekend so i can't see him forfeiting that.

[hocko]

Are the Wishon's new, hocko? When did you pickup those? They are great looking heads.
Got them today and yes, new.
Purchased from IanGolf with apollo black shafts and iomic white grips.

[rubin]

hmmm - i'll be bringing almost as much as hocko.

3 drivers, 2 FW, 2 Sets of irons. only a single hybrid, but 3 putters, and a varitable assortment of wedges.

Experimenting at its finest.

[Shadesy]

I'm thinking of leaving the driver at home after the weekend and 30 mins at the range just now...everything else going pretty well...Driver Bah!

Surely your better off Learning on one set of Clubs and feeling comfortable with them rather than Chopping and Changing.??

your probably right - but im just as uncomfortable with all of my clubs. the only one i feel properly comfortable with is the Scotty. the other 2 are for s and g's, and i'll use the rife for our sand greens challenge.

[Shadesy]

having said that Ill probably bring 2 putters! Maybe my old school ping for the Mini Golf Challenge!

[simmsy]

Just came off 9 holes, played ok but now laid up in bed and have taken two Tremadol. This weekend is gonna hurt.

Alcohol will take the pain away this weekend and lots of good Raffs.

There are many accepted forms of "English Language" style haiku's...largely because direct translation is difficult

One form is the 17 syllable over 3 lines style, which my particular one is.

[simmsy]

so just getting a heads up to everyone for Friday's round,

we all good for a skins free-for-all at Binningup?
it's 1/2 the price of Capel, it's a better course than Capel, it's closer than Capel for both us in Bunbury and anyone coming down that arvo, more shenanigans can be carried out at B'up than Capel.

i reckon after a bite to eat and grab a few bevvies for the game we should be able to teeoff by 3:45 or so.

i'll put up $10 for anyone that hits the green within 2 flag lengths on the 9th. (must be the right hand flag).

i've also got 2doz Cally Diablo's, does anyone know of a way we can use them this weekend?

Everyone has to use a cally at b'up?

1 big group skins game at b'up as well? I know that there is a fair few of us, but would make it interesting!

I should be able to get there for 345 without much issue. I will already be in golf attire, so it will be perfect. I thought about everyone using a diablo at Binny, but that takes away from a great round.

Sometimes Dunsb Lakes has floating targets in the water range. We could also use them on the 18th hole at the mini golf if we are playing at night and the last keeps your ball.

If not, we could place them loosely in the boot of the Tour van so that everytime he stops, 2 dozen diablos slam into the back of the cab and make Fit jump and drop his cheeseburgers.

[Johnny Canuck]

Everyone has to use a cally at b'up?1 big group skins game at b'up as well? I know that there is a fair few of us, but would make it interesting! We had a massive game last year. Everyone plays off half handicaps due to large numbers and carry overs. 3 ntps as well!
