I can report that my 19 is appropriate. Finished with 96/77. Was tough going today towards the end. We were absolutely soaked by the time we walked of 18.

Now I'm off to post in the full retard thread.........:cry:

I heard rumblings that u are a bandit that threw the anchor.
Something along the lines of birdie on the 1st
Sq with card after 6 then realisation that u need to steady up.

I did mention to him that the 7th was a little early to pull the parachute. Was seriously good golf early on GK's behalf.

Don't be so sure......

There was certainly no sandbags deployed today. Your tally of events is partially correct. Yes, I did birdie the first however I think I was +2 after 6.

7, which was my undoing, involved me having to run (or probably more appropriately wobble) my way 160 odd metres back up the fairway to take a drop when I couldn't find my ball after my second shot. For someone who is in such peak physical condition such as my self, this was not something that I would have done by choice I promise you. After dropping 7 shots on this hole, normal programming resumed and I went back to my usual bogey golf, albeit a little out of breath and much sweatier!

Sunday Draw will be Seeded and announced Saturday Night. I'll update the OP when I can.

Thanks to nearly everyone who has sent there payments through. Still waiting on a few most have come through. Thanks again.

Seems to be a bit of interest in whether I can make it past the ladies tees.

To make it interesting, for a $1pp donation to the tin, I'm happy for any of the ozgolfers attending to shout/jeer/sledge etc whilst I'm teeing off on the 1st.

If I get it away past the ladies, you can all double up and put in $2.

If I don't, I'll put in $20 to the kitty.

To be fair you can't include me in this as I was off 3 as of Saturday last week. So I've actually dropped back down and should thusly be rewarded for my honesty and non-sandbaginess with at least 1 extra shot per round, maybe 2.

The only way that Gamebook will work properly is if one person sets up the event (I nominate me) and then passes on the join code to one person from each group.

Then there should be no stuff ups from there.

Knowing my game, over the course of 3.5 rounds I'll hit some lovely drives, hit the greens with some lovely wedge shots, and sink a few good putts. But I'll also slice a drive onto the next fairway, thin the ball at rabbit-killing height, hit short-right on par 3s, chunk some chips that'll travel 20% the distance I'd planned, take 2-4 shots to get out of a bunker, and have multiple 3 putts. Meh. Live for the good shots :)

My only advice to all the newbies is just watch where your ball goes off the tee and around the course. I had/have a bad tendency to look away when I hit a particularly bad shot. At the courses we are playing it pays to keep an eye out as balls can disappear all too easily.

This gets me all the time, if I'm really disgusted with my shot I look away too. Couple this with bad long range vision and many a ball has been lost.
