not sure when this is happening, but i thought i would make this thread so if coffshacker see's it he might give some idea of when we can play it.
look forward to playing and have a great match.

I've got CoffsHacker's mobile number. Obviously your PM to him wasn't successful. It's a pity, because if you are still going to Port Macquarie over Easter I'm sure you could've found a mutally agreeable venue.

If he hasn't responded by tomorrow I'll PM his phone number to you Wednesday night. An SMS may be better than a phone call out of the blue.

I see that Tony will be keen to gain his attention as well.

Its good news that this game is finally happening. However, I played Coffs at Carnarvon last year. He'll think its the only course in Sydney.

There is a chance that I can make this game. I'll PM Jono and see if he can make it, then we could play our match at the same time.

Ping should be able to secure a booking on the weekend, if not sooner.

Carnarvon is fine by me (even though I have never shot better than 32 points there :roll: :lol: )

At this stage, I am free on that date, so put me down as a yes. 8)

Don't mind carnarvon again, i have a score to settle with this course :P

My flight arrives at 10:05 so a tee at 11-11:30 would be good if possible

Looks like Carnavon is the course of choice for MatchPlay :)

Have fun and hit it once (or twice) for me ;)

Oh by the way, souvlaki rolls are no more. You can get a pretty good chicken roll - not the same though :(

souvlaki rolls are no more.

Afternoon players tend to miss out. :smt002

Bugger, although the lady behind the counter said that the lady that used to make them isn't there anymore.

I hope for these guys that this was just to get me to buy something instead of eating the cheese sandwich I took (which tasted better then the roll I bought IMHO) :)

As Jono has said, he and I are in at this stage, to play our match at the same time as Coffs and Matt (or in the next group).

Jono isn't sure he can make it. If he doesn't play, neither will I, and we'll play our match another day.

I'm still a fan of the Carny bacon and egg roll. One of the better ones I've had.

I will ring the club tomoz and see if its invite only, if so ping may be able to get us a game?
If that falls through, anyone else got any ideas?

Matt,

Tuesdays are open days at Carnarvon so we should be OK.

If for some reason we can't get on, we can look at other Tue open day courses in Sydney. 8)

done, have to see if jono and jim are playing with us, would be good to have 2 matchplays going, not 100% sure what the comp is yet.

Matt,

At this stage, Jono and myself are in.

A procedural question, which isn't really important, but I can't help it. The event is almost always an individual stableford with a best ball. Should the matchplayers form a best ball team, or should we split up with you and Jono as one team and Craig and me on the other. What would be better? If it were an aggregate, would it make any difference.

I'm expecting us all to shoot 41 points each, so we might as well win the comp at the same time.

Sounds good, in the spirit that the matchplay should be played, both players shooting the lights out, we should form the teams craig and myself, and jim and jono, you lose a hole to a birdie, who cares, theres 4 points!!!
What do you think?

Jono
10th May 2006, 05:40 PM
Me and Matt on the same side would see A LOT of putts ... TEAM 6 PUTT. :roll: :lol:

They were aerating the greens today - small holes - and weren't filling them with sand - but greens were very firm and nice and quick. Have fun!

Congrats Matt, will update results as soon as either Jim or Jono post their result.

Matt was too excited by his massive drives with the new SMT driver on 6 and 8 to post the scores of day. Here they are:

Jimandr 35
Matt3jab 31 (2nd on countback)
Jono 31
Coffs_Hacker 25

The Coffs v Matt match was hardfought, with a number of swings of emotion and fortune. Matt always looked more likely to start playing really well, but Coffs would then play a good hole, or Matt would give one away to let him back into the game.

The Match highlight was the par 5 4th (our 13th). Coffs, with the honour, hit one onto the very busy road. Matt sprayed his drive left. We never found it. He ran back to the tee, and hit his second drive out of bounds onto the road. Coffs won the hole with a triple, when a loss would've hurt him badly.

Congrats to the two winners.
Don't forget that Blakey wants the scores in the 1st tee forum so he can find them.

Thanx to matt, jim aqnd john for a great day, I knew my great run of good rounds couldn't continue (all 1 of them) as Brisvegas predicted. I think it was a case of who wanted to Loose the match more, Matt with his drives missing the fairway by 50mtrs or my 40+ putts (including 1 or 2 4putts) and poor chipping. At least i lasted 1 extra hole this year before losing the match :)

Congrats again Matt on the win and thanx for the game guys

Congrats mate, good to hear about the massive drives, including the massive sprays!
