With thanks to Simmsy!

Cut off is March for Round 1! Aim for earlier!

Johnny Canuck
15th January 2012, 09:23 PM
Shortly, as in March?

Yossarian
15th January 2012, 09:25 PM
About then. I'm not actually sure how to construct such a table.

simmsy
15th January 2012, 09:53 PM
U make my day so much brighter Yoss. Ur awesome.

Mortice and tenon joints and a full 72 hours drying time on the adhesive before you place it under load.

So...there is a matchplay thread already, and now this, the pre-matchplay table thread. This thread is to let everyone else know that there is/will be a table, and at such time there will be another thread created containing said table.

What about editing the OP on the MP thread?

You berk!

idgolfguy
16th January 2012, 12:17 PM
It's a meta-thread. A thread about threads.

TourFit
16th January 2012, 06:12 PM
That's very Zen-like, oh Tantric Master

Yossarian
16th January 2012, 08:04 PM
Maybe you could do up the table fit.

Yossarian
17th January 2012, 06:58 PM
OP Up-dated!

Kind of like lubin last night.

MegaWatty
17th January 2012, 07:19 PM
Wow! Good work, son!

idgolfguy
17th January 2012, 07:26 PM
Could have hidden the lines and marked up only the blocks that were relevant.

Yossarian
17th January 2012, 07:43 PM
Wow! Good work, son!

Thank simmsy!

Yossarian

Yoss.

17th January 2012, 08:10 PM
Should set up a Calcutta on this..

Yossarian
17th January 2012, 08:18 PM
But seriously, JC is in some great form atm, nuffie is playing well now he is freed of the dogleg carries of Hartfield. Fit is in a good vein of form which probably means it is due to end soon...

My smokey is Simmsy. Never been past the first round but has settled on a driver for the 3 weeks of this year I think. Go simmsy!

simmsy
17th January 2012, 11:04 PM
I was liking Yoss. He has conveniently given himself all but a free pass in the 1st rd. thanks to picking himself to play Adlo who has played 2 games in a year and has to give Yoss 2 or 3 shots.

Nice work son. ;)

Yossarian
17th January 2012, 11:11 PM
I was going to offer off the stick, settle, but it truly was a random draw!

Our matchplays are always close, usually I choke down the stretch!

simmsy
17th January 2012, 11:38 PM
Does it help u to last longer when u choke down?

TourFit
18th January 2012, 12:29 PM
Maybe you could do up the table fit.

You don't have any bucks to pass, do you?



usually I choke and then stretch!

Fixed.

Nuffie
18th January 2012, 10:43 PM
Nuffie is playing well now he is freed of the dogleg carries of Hartfield.I needed two drivers in my bag to play that course, trouble was I needed two set up exactly the same but with different lofts. The 13 degree 3 wood worked ok but sometimes caught the trees. A 15 degree 3 wood couldn't always make the carry.

Yossarian
19th January 2012, 12:13 AM
I know it is tough nuffie.

The height you need on your drives is almost as tall as your signature.

TourFit
19th January 2012, 12:44 AM
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Gold!

And not quite the height of the collection of small stuffed toys at the end of the Nuff cot.

I think a JC and Hocko final could be on the cards!

TourFit
19th January 2012, 02:58 PM
Your in a tough draw hocko...first idgg, then Nuff or TommyG just to get to the semis. Then quite possibly Mega!

rubin
19th January 2012, 03:03 PM
Shouldn't mega and Fit start organsing their MP? If its like the Final last year, it won't be played until the before the cut-off and we won't know the result for 2 weeks after that!

TourFit
19th January 2012, 03:06 PM
Mega has been contacted already.

You just worry about you & Cosmo!!

rubin

If i get past Vic then i have a plan, if it's Nuff then i will just talk him out of playing well.
If it's Tommy then i will ensure that he is sober.
Mega is then next, we play at Kalgoorlie, win win.

TourFit
19th January 2012, 07:44 PM
And if I beat Mega in Rnd 1 like last year? What then?

Tell you what, I'll go on & beat Rubin/Cosmo, and then you & I can play a semi in Kal.

rubin

Whoever wins JC v Daz will win the whole damn thing. Tough first round match up there.

Yoss, I accept an off the stick match, thanks for your generosity. But like simmsy, I did find it strange the organizer drew the ozgolfer who never plays golf.

Yossarian
19th January 2012, 09:50 PM
I swear it was random!

adlo
19th January 2012, 09:53 PM
Kidding mate. I would wind up anyone that drew me in the 1st round.

Shadesy

Up for annial bunbury trip ads and Yoss! Not sure I could get golfnut down there?

Johnny Canuck
19th January 2012, 10:02 PM
I love the banter. Perfect draw by Yoss to keep me quiet. How can you trash talk Daz.

If ads and Yoss play in early march, i'll be in for bunno.

Yossarian
19th January 2012, 10:04 PM
Kidding mate. I would wind up anyone that drew me in the 1st round.

No worries! I think it will be a good match, your zen influence on my putting will be used for evil.

Werd. Wedge should be here tomorrow I think!

Johnny Canuck

Awesome. I am back Tues. I will find a way to pick it up early Wed or late tues night.

adlo
19th January 2012, 10:47 PM
Great call JC, Daz is untrashable. The only advice I have is use his lack of OzGolf face time against him ala Yoss changing tee times in a thread (not the OP), Daz never looked at it and didn't make the last OzGolf major! Tactical magnificence!

I can't do first weekend March, so depends if second weekend is acceptable. Keen though.

Johnny Canuck
19th January 2012, 11:00 PM
It should be fine for me. I would have to check a little closer to the.time. love any op to play Bunbury.

I might employ Yoss' tactics, highly effective.

MegaWatty
20th January 2012, 03:40 AM
I'm out. Too much merit bar love. Enjoy.

Shadesy
20th January 2012, 04:38 AM
Isn't it generating fair debate mega? I have not seen one post that has been overly serious or anyone get antsy with another,

I think it's fair to discuss Tommy's handicap as he wants to be involved and we are happy to!

I couldn't care less about a merit bar and my ozgolf results 0/3 show it! But i would be surprised if anyone's post is above light hearted humor and we all know only one us really wants to win ;-)

Still if you want out that's ur option! Fit should get another opponent I don't want him getting a merit bar this easily..............

Yossarian
31st January 2012, 08:42 PM
Full caps, that is the whole point of having a cap IMO.

MegaWatty
1st February 2012, 12:55 AM
Note...I was in Melbourne and the time is 3 hours ahead of what it says. I was blind. Something tipped me over the edge.

Fitty and I are still playing.

God knows what I'll say next week though!

Shadesy
20th February 2012, 01:24 PM
Wow JC or Daz next round... Least I got to the second Round I suppose. Better than Simmsy ever did ;-)

Get on with it you lot.

rubin
20th February 2012, 01:32 PM
Wow JC or Daz next round... Least I got to the second Round I suppose. Better than Simmsy ever did ;-)

+1. Only i get Fit or Mega.

If you two blokes could get it organised that'd be great. I need to know if I have to organise noise-cancelling headphones or not.

Yossarian
20th February 2012, 02:06 PM
I guess we do talk alot shadsey, that is why the one time Rubin, you and I played KB together he spent most of the time wandering the rough away from us!

Johnny Canuck
20th February 2012, 02:11 PM
I need to track down Dazzle.

rubin
20th February 2012, 02:35 PM
I remember that day Yoss - and recall it as one of my worst golfing performances ever. I distinctly remember Shadesy saying that he was hitting the ball too far :roll:

But TBH - all you 2 did was talk about F****n cricket all day long.

Yossarian
20th February 2012, 02:52 PM
That is because you were on your way to a cricket score.

rubin
20th February 2012, 02:57 PM
chicken - egg.

All i know - I dont think I have played as bad as that for a long time.

Shadesy
20th February 2012, 03:02 PM
:lol: He only dealt in 6's

Daz_Golfa

Hiya, Can you see me from there ?

I'll send a PM.

OP updated, get your matches done ladies or I will start sending unsolicited and semi threatening PM's or DQ you and sub myself back in.

Johnny Canuck
11th March 2012, 09:15 PM
Hopefully will be playing Dazzle at K-Town in a few weeks, if he accepts.

idgolfguy
11th March 2012, 10:31 PM
If Hocko is keen, we could play ours too.

Golfnut
11th March 2012, 10:33 PM
Hopefully will be playing Dazzle at K-Town in a few weeks, if he accepts.

Greens should be up to scratch by then.

...then again, maybe not!

MegaWatty

Nope. Not June!

Holy Mother Of God!!!

12th March 2012, 12:35 PM
Clearly you are not trying hard enough fit, you are DQ'd.

Golfnut
12th March 2012, 12:48 PM
Hahaha!

idgolfguy
12th March 2012, 04:20 PM
Old joke!

Yossarian
12th March 2012, 04:23 PM
You are also DQ'd for not joining in the lols.

TourFit
12th March 2012, 04:35 PM
If you'd DQ'ed everyone with bullsh*t excuses before Sunday...you coulda been the WINNER!

Yossarian
12th March 2012, 04:38 PM
I always wanted to win like JC did in 2011.

MegaWatty
12th March 2012, 07:18 PM
I always wanted to win like JC did in 2011. He didn't. I did.

Yossarian

Werd, I hope the spreadsheet reflects this.

13th March 2012, 01:27 AM
It's broken. I can't be stuffed fixing it. Loves. ;)

Yossarian
13th March 2012, 10:46 AM

TourFit
13th March 2012, 11:22 AM

Johnny Canuck
13th March 2012, 11:27 AM
You aren't the real winner, you only won 2 matches. 3 others did that as well. 1/4 champ.

TourFit
13th March 2012, 11:39 AM
Yep...that hairy bloke who used to hang around here, & occasionally play golf, forfeited on me.

Shame on me! Shoulda never accepted the title :roll:


(same thing might happen again this year if that ginger haired, freckly guy who hangs around here, and occasionally plays golf, can't find a day off)

Yossarian
13th March 2012, 11:49 AM
No you'll both be dq'd.

TourFit
13th March 2012, 11:52 AM
Along with Invisible Daz and Irascible Canuck I assume?

Yossarian
13th March 2012, 11:53 AM
No just you two.

TourFit
13th March 2012, 11:55 AM
Maybe we can all just put our names in the MP hat...and you can divine the winner using your Tarot cards?

Or you could just advance the people you like, all the way to the Finals.

Go Yoss!!!

Yossarian
13th March 2012, 11:56 AM
I like Mega. He can win this year.

TourFit
13th March 2012, 11:58 AM
Didn't you just DQ him?

Johnny Canuck
13th March 2012, 12:00 PM
This never would have happened if the challenge match play proposal was accepted.

With the exception of simmsy the right side of the draw was obviously the tougher side.

JC any updates?

Fit mega?

Johnny Canuck
19th April 2012, 07:55 AM
Feel free to start round 2 matches. JC any updates?Fit mega?We thought we had this Sat arranged fo about 5 mIn, but Dazzle remembered that he had kids. He suggested Anzac day, but I am out that day. Looking into a few weekends after that. You want to play KB, stroke off whites (no Rubin), this Sat at 9?

Yossarian
19th April 2012, 07:56 AM
Can't, assssignment.

Johnny Canuck
19th April 2012, 08:01 AM
Daz and i have also determined that if we can't play soon, the match will take play on a mini golf course.

rubin
19th April 2012, 08:18 AM
Yeah - cause i asked to play.........

Daz 4 & 2

Johnny Canuck
19th April 2012, 08:50 AM
You are more than welcome to play. I think you are reading the sentence incorrectly. ;)

rubin
19th April 2012, 08:57 AM
My apologies. U and daz have fun with ur stroke play.

simmsy
19th April 2012, 08:58 AM
Rubin prefers the blacks.

Can we still say that?

rubin
19th April 2012, 09:01 AM
I think its ok - but only for gentlemen of your age. They dont know any better..... ;)

Pups of your age don't know anything though.

Yossarian

Updates on remaining round 1 matches?

Johnny Canuck
6th May 2012, 11:39 PM
Trying to see if I can arrange something for next Sat. Tough part is that Sat is pretty much the only day I can play and course choice is limited as Dazzle doesn't have a valid golflink. Waiting on a return call before I contact him.

Yossarian
7th May 2012, 12:18 PM
Let us know.

Mega and fit?

Yossarian
7th May 2012, 04:57 PM
Bwump?.

Johnny Canuck
10th May 2012, 01:33 AM
Managed to get a tee time at KBay at 12:20pm on Sat. Unfortunately, the English celebrate Mother's Day one day early. No match.

Yossarian
20th May 2012, 09:59 PM
Bump. After speaking to various people it sounds as if Fit may be prevaricating and as such he is DQ'd.

Daz if you could pop in and let us know what is happening that would be super.

Excellent!

That's like getting an extension on a Uni assignment...:lol:

Will Daz vs JC have any chance of happening now before Sept with metro pennants fast approaching? I know JC has done his fair share of trying to set the match up.

I don't believe so. We discussed on Sunday about half way through the round.

Pieface
29th June 2012, 03:38 PM
Has Fit left the comp?

That depends if he gets slated to play any cyber bullies.

rubin
13th July 2012, 12:13 PM
surely the DQ's must be a certain by now.

Just my 2 cents - but Daz never posts anymore and it sounds like a JC vs Daz MP is almost impossible. Jc straight thorugh so we can actually ge this finished this year.

Yossarian
13th July 2012, 12:24 PM
Thanks rubes. It is being discussed behind the scenes, waiting to see if Ashes and JC can sort something out. Daz is gone as far as I am concerned.

sms316
13th July 2012, 12:28 PM
Even though he will only be in WAnker County for a few days, you might as well award this to dc68 as well.

idgolfguy
21st July 2012, 01:18 PM
What's happening with Daz and JCs match play. It seems like Daz is a non-entity. Is there a reserve? After all it is only the first round.

Yossarian
21st July 2012, 01:44 PM
Daz is gone.

JC will play Ashes once pennants is over.

Please just play your matches there is no need to wait for JC.

Ashes
21st July 2012, 01:59 PM
When does pennants finish up?

idgolfguy
21st July 2012, 01:59 PM
Nuffie and I can play at the Vines anytime. We have no issues with scheduling unlike everybody else.

Nuffie is playing Pennants so will wait till after.

It is like me telling Usain Bolt that I'll beat him in a race and that I am faster than him, but then turning around and asking for a 30m head start.

Without caps last time it would have been square when the match ended.

I did play crap and can make no excuses on that.

My only point is that if you want to talk a little smack, it should be backed up in a manly way and you shouldn't hide behind the cap or at least play at 3/4 like a lot of the other matches.

I still have a big task at taking down Shadesy, so it might not even happen.

It is a tough task giving away more than 4 shots on Matchplay.

Hocko lost his to me that way, I felt a little uncomfortable back then too.

I don't play Pennants anymore as all Division 5 and above play handicaps and having to give 6 or 7 is not fun.

Unfortunately, there isn't a more equitable system.

Yossarian
1st October 2012, 10:10 AM
People that have lower handicaps than me are whiny girls. There is a reason you have to give me that many shots. It is because I am a chopper with 22,222 posts or something. Toughen up ladies.

sms316
1st October 2012, 10:27 AM
3/4 difference is the fairest. Choppers tend to have a couple of blowouts which doesn't affect them as much in matchplay.

Problem is that choppers get on boards and think that they actually deserve to get their name on the honour board.

Yossarian

The reason you play off 1 is because you don't have blowout holes. That means you are even better at matchplay.

I like Id don't like giving shots up in Matchplay when realistically I can shoot birdie on most holes playing off 9-10.

Sure I'll probably get pumped, but to be the best you have to beat the best.

I do find the golf handicap thing a bit weird. When I was racing mtb's I was never a chance of winning a race, but I was quite happy tryin to keep getting better placings. For me, my focus is on trying to break 90 for the first time in a comp and to get my cap back into the teens.

I don't believe there is any OZGolfer here that would sandbag for champs. If they did, they would be ostracized off the forum. There's always talk about about the lower HCs 'blowing out' by a couple of strokes. Jack or JC having an extra one or two strokes more going to make the difference - IMO - I doubt it.

It is tougher for the lower HC players to win in these type of events due to the lack of divisional separation. A chopper (12ish - 27) is more likely to shoot 40+ points than a 4 HC who has to Par every hole or birdies to make up for the one or two bogeys. The courses we are playing aren't all easy and KB (Tips) will be challenging. Marty is the best amateur I have played around with so far, considering the weekend activities, I would be very impressed if he came in with 39 points on Sunday.

OZgolf champs here has been a game of attrition, post a good score on the early rounds and defend that good score based on the individual's stamina. We all don't play multiple rounds on a weekend nor do we binge regularly. From a golfing perspective - it is a tough toll.

The money games are a different story...

Veefore
1st October 2012, 07:40 PM
I know a lot of people who talk about blowing out their handicap for this or that event.
Hell I do it myself. But when they are playing a comp beforehand and get to that 16th hole with a chance to post a score and win a golf ball and knock a shot off their handicap, I've never seen one deliberately throw out the anchor and actually back up the words.

Mostly I think it is covering for their embarrassment. Nobody wants to admit that their handicap is going out because they are just playing shit golf. Much easier to make like you are ambivalent about it and letting it happen on purpose.
