All off the 10th.

Currently have 0 spots available!

Important Info: Cost is $18, pay on the day. If everyone is keen we can have a $10 in comp between ourselves. Prizes: Best Nett: $350, Runner Up $200, Gross $200. There are also trophies I think.

If I can get Nanna and Pop to mind the young fella while the wife is in Melbourne, I will be keen to give the old home course a go again.

Only issue with this is the time it takes to get around Wynnum in this type of comp. Any idea of the cost? Better still I will look at the website.

PeteyD
16th December 2014, 03:01 PM
Not on the website yet. Cost was around $30, I imagine similar. Usually takes 4.5 to 5 hours for this comp, depending on how much it rains ...

Note that in the past the handicap limit just means that you play off 24 if your handicap is higher.

Looking forward to this one, course should be in top condition with the recent rain.

ZENNON
7th January 2015, 03:46 PM

Cool cool

Means my future brother-in-law can't play, which is a shame really as he's much better than both the Father-in-law and myself

PeteyD

The lovely Bec at the club has looked after us. Hope you guys like early. Tee times are 6:56 to 7:24 off the 10th. They have given us the 20 spots. I will release any that are not filled the week before as I am away the week leading into the cup. I will add the info to the first post.

I am pretty sure we can shuffle the groups up to suit on the day so will do a draw a week out as well.

3 more spots.

I am pretty sure those are the Wynnum Cup prizes, not the Ozgolf pool.

Indeed. Prizes for the all in will be $20 for first and rest for Pete ... um divided up depending on QTY. Probably Naga 20, winner a big bunch and second a bit too.

I'm in for the earlier group if that's okay. The young fella will probably sleep over at nana and pops, so getting to pick him up a bit earlier is good.

Don't upset him benno, I left a bunch of balls down there Tuesday he might be able to bring to Wynnum for me.

3pp stamps on them. Mostly in the trees to the left of the front 9. And 14.

Ferrins

Up high in a mansion
On a mountain of jagged rock
Behind two iron doors
So heavy they need no lock

Is the last place that love lives
Where the sad woman cries
Is the last place that love lives
Behind your eyes

You hold up your finger
And you place it to my lips
And you tell me that anger
Can never get rid of this

Ferrins
13th January 2015, 06:52 AM
I'll play if required then.

Is this tendonitis? If so you may need a week or two without hitting any balls at all.

I found ice worked best for mine. I would ice it up the night before and again about 30 mins before I played the next morning. Had a few weeks off initially then ice plus only played once a week until it felt like it was getting better.

A standard SD card should work, don't think you specifically need a Sonocaddie one.

13th January 2015, 06:40 PM

PeteyD
15th January 2015, 10:33 AM
Yep definitely none of those things.

Just note guys that the club will have you at different tee times, but within the block. I will speak with the pro shop when I get there.

15th January 2015, 03:52 PM

Thanks for organising it all Pete.

How come its only $18? Bargain!
I'm more used to paying 20 or 30 bucks PLUS comp fee whenever I play any course.

PeteyD
15th January 2015, 03:53 PM
That was what the flier said. No idea why, it is cheaper than their normal comp

3Puttpete
15th January 2015, 04:06 PM

Daves
15th January 2015, 06:49 PM
I think it is just 18. Ring em and check.

Yep, just $18 as I read it. It is a Marque open event for them, probably some level of sponsorship as well. Low fee to encouraged high participation.

Anyone who's played Wynnum before want to give any tips?
Is it worth trying to take it on with the driver or will I find myself OB or chipping out of trees all day?

AndyP
17th January 2015, 09:29 PM
It's short enough that you might not need driver.

PeteyD
17th January 2015, 10:05 PM
Short and tight.

Daves

Leaving Driver in the bag, or even at home, is probably a smart move.

AndyP
17th January 2015, 10:16 PM
I should probably do that after today's round. Only in hindsight do I see that it should have been put away earlier.

dazza99
17th January 2015, 10:18 PM
I would do that, except I can be as wayward with an 8 iron as I am with driver :)

May as well be 180m in the trees rather than 100m in the trees.

Looks like the course is going to be nice and soggy, so it will be playing longer then normal with no run on the fairways. Let's hope the forecast stays true and this rain is gone by then.

It will be a flog in the bog and you better have Batfinks wings of steel to keep the mozzies at bay.

When I was a member we would play preferred lies after this amount of rain, wonder if the will do the same for a big event like the cup?

PeteyD

It is not the Wynnum cup without rain! They won't want to play preferred lies. Will ask how it looks if I ring the club. This afternoon.

Hemmant got 100mm this morning. Expect less than 40mm for the rest of the day.

I think we played in heavier rainfall there a couple of years ago!!

They won't make a call until they see how much rain they get tomorrow ontop of todays.

Well well well. Wynnum Cup postponed. You might seriously question the clubs decision to (attempt) to hold this in the middle of the wet season!

Nudgee is closed. They are saying they got 173mm of rain in 24 hours.

I would/will have/probably did smash it round Wynnum today.

From the time my first drive sailed up the middle to the moment I sunk that 20-footer for birdie on the last my game was seriously "ON". Left the rest of the field in my wake and made a superb and very funny victory speech.

Enjoyed it immensely and looking forward to when it gets re-arranged. I'll replay the above for real next time.
