it is very much appreciated that these donations are given, i know other guys will give during the weekend. Ashes - $5 for every teeshot failing to make the reds mate.

Is it just the tee shot that costs, or do I have to pay more when the second and third shots don't make it past the reds too? Scary potential numbers with 54 holes to be played...

[Johnny Canuck]

Ashes' spray tanning donations can be made to Beyond White.

[Johnny Canuck]

Ashes' donations to the GSM will be coming from Not Beyond Reds.

[Ashes]

Well played.

[AndyP]

Let's see if we can raise some more before the big weekend.

What sort of things have you guys got going during the Champs weekend that will be adding money to Beyond Blue?

OZgolfer Donations: $60 + $150 TBC

[G.K]

Having not been to a champs before, I can't say what might be in store as far as "donations" etc. No doubt plenty of side bets will be going on. If I'm lucky enough to be the recipient of any prize money or side bet wins, it will be going in the charity tin.

What about NAGA apparel, can I put that in the Vinnies/salvos bin rather than wearing it? :razz:

[Jackson]

Anyone have a list of 'fines' for the champs? I need to know whether I need to request overtime in the next few weeks to pay for them all!

[hocko]

Simmsy would be best to draw up the "fine" list

[simmsy]

It has previously been an honour type system. If you feel as though you have done something that you are not particularly proud of pay up.

I don't like making ppl pay for doing this and that but they should feel happy to donate whatever amount they want to. Be it a dollar or whatever.

As a rough guide Things like
3jack - $1
Slut - $5
Shank -$5
Resting your balls on a mates shoulders while they sleep -$priceless

My play was that ****ing disgraceful on Saturday alone that I threw in a lobster and still felt I short-changed the tin!

What is a slut? In golf terms I mean...

[Ashes]

Me, if I'm not mistaken.

[Peter]

What is a slut? In golf terms I mean...Changing clubs between the carpark and first tee?

[Shadesy]

Ashes Special.

Look out for the special NuckBet thread involving this phenomenon in the coming days.

[Shadesy]

Ok my shag bag is looking a bit empty.

For every loose shaggy or dirty ball (those not on simmsys shoulders) found I will donate 50 cents for each one donated.

My son loves the colored ones, so they are worth $1.

I'm sure someone will have a pair of blue balls at some point so there's an easy $2 for them.

I'll find heaps as I walk the dunes.

[Shadesy]

I just bought 100 balls on Squizzys for $20. Easiest $30 I've ever made.

Not sure you understand the concept of donation.

Plenty of money in the Tin. Those who don't know, I was collecting any old golf balls found over the weekend and paying 50 Cents per ball to beyond blue for every one found. Final count was 58 with two yellow ones worth double. Nice round number of $30 from me on its way.

[Mububban]

Top effort everyone. Amazing how many balls we managed to find while looking for mine on day 2, without actually finding the ones I'd lost....

[TourFit]

How do you lose one when it doesn't get past the ladies?

[LeftyHoges]

And seeing as Jackson and I never got the chance to play our match with the cash I'll either give $50 to beyond blue if I don't "beat the field" at QLD champs and / or we'll work something out with a Nully Cup match here in Feb.

Everyone should be very proud of donating such a huge sum of money, to such a worthy cause.

IT makes the Hangover, sore back and devastation of my poor golf almost worth while.

[hocko]

Indeed, not only did we get to play golf, get on the gas and have some good laughs we also made a desent donation to a very worthy cause.

Good onya guys!

[simmsy]
