McLeod Cup 2007, Saturday April 14, 7:06-7:54am

[AndyP]

McLeod Cup
Saturday, April 14
Cost: $10 + $2 for pro pin (as won by damoocow last year - $164 prize then)
Registrations by Friday, March 23.

------------------------------

McLeod Cup time is nearly here again. It would be great to have another big turnout this year, as we've had in previous years. For some of you (Vegas, nudgee, 990B, Tez, Cobra, A-Lo) it could be the fourth time in a row playing this event (wow, I didn't realise there were that many of you).

I've sent an email to the club, but as yet, I've had no reply. I might have to rely on the telephone to see if they can accommodate us and get some more details. The plan is to see if they can keep our groups close together in the morning and off both tees, similar to last year.

Last year we had 19 OZgolfers, and had our second McLeod Cup winner. :D Who wants to win OZgolf's third?

Where exactly is McLeod GC. Is it on the other side of 'Vegas to me?

Slightly closer to you than Jindalee.

it is about 1/2 hour your side of Wynnum, so no excuses for this one Goughy!

I don't contribute to those self promoting "what did you shoot' theads.
Then again..at least if you shoot a good game and post in there about 25 wingnuts respond with.."nice shooting wankface"...or something like that.

I take offence to that wankface.

Oh, I'm in for the McLeod Cup as lucky number 13.

Macca and I need to be in the city by 12.45, we are going to a seminar.
I dont remember how long it took to play last year, but i dont think it was quick. Surely not more than 5 hours though?

[Moe Norman]

from memory, it was a long one last year.

about 4.5 hours or thereabouts.

[AndyP]

"they seek him here, they seek him there!"

Hang on, who was seeking him anywhere?? :)

[Jarro]

Are we allowed requests for groupings ?

[andylo]

I'd like to go to MTB's group. Would have a doctor appointment for Christine at 1:30pm so I want to make sure I got plenty of time travel back to home without risking my life.

[Jarro]

ALo ===> :smt012 :smt075 :smt018

[andylo]

What??

This is a big event, I don't want to miss it. But its also the day for Christine's routine check up, and I already did my best I can to make it latest possible.

Lets say we don't get a 7am tee time, but a 8am one, and lets say we played extremely slow and got 5 hours round ok, I still got 30 mins travel in between and thats more than enough for me without flying at 190KM on the freeway.

Even better if its 7am, I got 6 hours buffer! Lets say its 5 hr round, I still got an hour and talking trashes with the rest of the clew in the 19th.

[PeteyD]

Andy the way you drive that is a non issue :D

[Iain]

Yeah, but will he get there on time??

[andylo]

If I don't try a new route I will be on time. (There's not new route to go to McLeod anyway)

[Eag's]

Young Andylo, it seems to me you have some serious time management
issues :smt075 If you want fellow Oz golfers to get off your back about your
late arrivals, then now is the time to get your shit together mate :?

[andylo]

Agree... I late all the bloody time! :mrgreen:

[Iain]

If I don't try a new route I will be on time. (There's not new route to go to McLeod anyway)

I thought we determined you were 40 minutes late, not 10...... :razz:

I thought we determined you were 40 minutes late, not 10...... :razz:

As much as I HATE McLeod GC, surely I'm due to break 80 there this year!

[dc68]

You should have gone out to 9 instead of coming in to 5 then.




;)

[Moe Norman]

what do you hate about MacLeod Vegas?

besides the stretch of 4-7 its not htat bad a course, consideirng its run by sheilas :o

[BrisVegas]

I hate that I can't post a score there.... Always seem to end up in the trees. Must try harder to stay on the fairways this year. 19deg hybrid off the tee could be the go.

[BrisVegas]

oh yeah, almost forgot about our matchplay! Ok then, driver it is!

[dc68]

Dion I feel your pain I don't think I have ever broken 80 there either.

[AndyP]

The club has finally got back to me about the day, so here are some more details.

McLeod Cup
Saturday, April 14
Cost: $10 + $2 for pro pin (as won by damoocow last year - $164 prize then)
Timesheets avail to fellows: Sat, March 24
Timesheets avail to visitors (us): Mon, March 26

I need to supply definite numbers by Monday the 26th, so I'd like all our registrations taken care of by then, that is, no more pencils. They'll try to keep our groups together and off both tees as much as possible (unless I request otherwise). I'll then have to confirm all names and respective home clubs by Thurs, April 5.

Not as simple as our sweet Wynnum Cup deal, especially with McLeod's increase in fellows, but I'm sure things will work out okay like last year.

-------------


Are we allowed requests for groupings ?
I'd prefer to not have requests for specific groupings, but time considerations and OZgolf Matchplay matches will definitely be taken into account though.

Sorry guys. FIL said he's coming during the easter holidays to do our bathroom, laundry and toilet and finish off the rest of our house. While I may have been able to make this game depending on when we finish, I'll pull the pin. No point mucking about with it. Won't make the game at middle ridge on easter saturday either. Them's the breaks.

Timely post goughy!! :(

Have you given up on this OZgolf day organising yet? :mrgreen:

The problem with our big days is the heat from clubs for pullouts goes onto the organiser, instead of the individual withdrawing as would normally be the case. Something to keep in mind for any pikers. 1st Tee forum yellow card/red card system? :-k ;)

goughy, you still have a couple of weeks to change your mind again. And thanks for ruining the list numbers.

[BrisVegas]

Have you given up on this OZgolf day organising yet? :mrgreen:
yep, I'm done with it. At least until I get the urge to do it again.

I don't know how to get around that... If we become a more formal social group, we'd be excluded from comps such as this... We're kind of in a grey area. We're a contiguous "mob".

[PeteyD]

We are legion. We are Borg, you will be assimilated

[terryand]

AP, is Patty still out there, cause maybe Moe or myself might be able to pull at the old Indooroopilly heart strings to get us on the sheet a bit earlier.

Terry.

Like last year, I am dealing with the men's captain, Nigel, and Fran in the office. I don't know if Patty is there, I don't think I have had any contact with her if she is.

[Moe Norman]

Fran as in Fran Poultney? She is also an old indro lass....

[AndyP]

Fran as in Fran Poultney? She is also an old indro lass....
Checking emails...........yes.

[goughy]

goughy, you still have a couple of weeks to change your mind again. And thanks for ruining the list numbers.

Mind won't change until the reno's are done. I'll only be taking the place of a last minute pull-out and only if they're finished.

And I'm lucky to be able to post here. You can't seriously expect me to accomplish things like changing list numbers.

[AndyP]

Just a reminder that I'd like all withdrawals and entries finalised by the end of this week.

I've noticed one glaring omission from the current list...... Choppa, are you defending your title or what?!?!?!?!?
As defender of the pro-pin, I'm hoping damo can make it too.

[Moe Norman]

I'm out.

Back probably won't be ready for golf by then, so I'm heading up the coast instead.

Time requests will be taken into account and matches that need to be played. Let me know if you need to play a match.
AndyP v kpac
BrisVegas v terryand

[just]

I've got a request:
I want to play somewhere between 7:06 and 7:48 (inclusive of) and I want to play with the people in the above list numbered 1-24 except for number 4-he sucks.
Oh, and I want a totally random draw, except for any requests you get and any whims you have.

[AndyP]

I've got a request:

I can't guarantee that at this stage.


and I want to play with the people in the above list numbered 1-24 except for number 4-he sucks.Nope, you could miss out here too.


Oh, and I want a totally random draw, except for any requests you get and any whims you have.I have many whims.

Choppa v steverawlo

I should try and organise a 6:30a tee off for those two.

[steverawlo]

7.48am please

[Choppa]

Is it ok to say that I am starting to feel very scared now?

7:48 for sure!

[BrisVegas]

Oooh, can I play in the chops v rawlo group! 8)

[Choppa]

Sorry 69, my body is a temple. No tat is going to ruin my purity.

[Choppa]

Oooh, can I play in the chops v rawlo group! 8)

I can guarantee crap golf and vomit :smt087

[Moe Norman]

if there is a spot or 2 available, I might get up for this now based on latest news from the physio.

If not, I might just book a couple of spots with the club direct?

I think the Danish warrior wants to join us.

[steverawlo]

Is it ok to say that I am starting to feel very scared now?

7:48 for sure!

Don't be too scared mate. Promised the missus I'd be home by 10. When I told her who I'd be out with she made me nominate a time. She knows you're the bad influence.

[dc68]

She knows you're bad when under the influence.







;)

[AndyP]

iIf not, I might just book a couple of spots with the club direct?I'm sure jarro or someone else will pull out. Westy was a pencil too.

[BrisWesty]

Ink me in!

[Moe Norman]

Just to be safe, I'm going to call the club and book two spots for me and Andreas.

I've got the all-clear to play pending results of a range session and don't want to miss out.

[AndyP]

You should be able to get a time around us. A couple of slots after our groups were available on Monday morning.

[Choppa]

Harsh :cry:.....

[Iain]

Harsh :cry:.....

But true....

[poidda]

Harsh :cry:.....

Harsh, but fair!

[Iain]

Harsh, but fair!

Too slow...

[Choppa]

Well then, if she (sorry I am terrible with names) thought I was a bad influence at Bribie.......I feel I have been challenged :twisted:

[Iain]

Well then, if she (sorry I am terrible with names) thought I was a bad influence at Bribie.......I feel I have been challenged :twisted:

To not be or to be a worse one??

In that case I am out........ no really I am out of the pre Cup shenanigans.
Work function.

At least I know Poidda doesn't scare that easy.

[nudgee]

OK I am in as well - cant miss this one!!

[AndyP]

OK I am in as well - cant miss this one!!
Moe, have you booked your twosome yet? If not, do you want me to try and get another full group so nudgee can have a spot?

[Moe Norman]

haven't booked, so give it a crack AP

[jeffblaz]

hey guys if im not too late i would like to take part @ McLeod as my first get together with you guys. :smt060

[AndyP]

I'm a bit concerned about the love hearts, but I've added another group regardless (7:54a).

That's 7 groups now!!! Holy shit, this thing is bigger than Ben Hur!!!

[AndyP]

nudgee, peter_rs, would you like to get your matchplay out of the way here, instead of playing it at Brooky?

[jeffblaz]

feel the love!

[PeteyD]

Nice late entry Blaz, Moe andreas and Nudgee!

[peter_rs]

No brooky is fine. There is no hurry on that match. match play is wasted on a comp round

[AndyP]

You're right. I forgot it was a second round match.


match play is wasted on a comp roundSome would argue otherwise.

[peter_rs]

You're right. I forgot it was a second round match.

Some would argue otherwise.


They can but its not there MATCH:twisted: and the same rules not apply

[Grunt]

Have A Great round everyone!!!!!!:smt038















would be good to have this many OzGolf members here in Sydney that can play regularly:roll:

[dc68]

Typical mate, just like a bunnies supporter to go early.

Thanks all the same.

[Jarro]

Any thought on groups yet ?

I don't wanna get stuck with any duds like PeteyD, CobraSS or Iain :roll:

[Moe Norman]

can I play in Jarro's group?

[dc68]

Can you only handle 11 holes with the back the way it is mate?

[Jarro]

can I play in Jarro's group?

Cool.

... not only will i get a free lesson in grass identification, grip techniques, Ebay listings and ARU bullshit, i'll also get to see first hand the wonders a chiropractor can perform.

[AndyP]

Any thought on groups yet ?
Yep, I have a draft.

Terry.

[PeteyD]

Hey that's right jimmy, try that again and I'll kick yer big brown bahoogie.

[Moe Norman]

. not only will i get a free lesson in grass identification, grip techniques, Ebay listings and ARU bullshit I know nothing about the golf grip, which is quite clear when you see mine. I just don't give tips to other players, particularly those with HCP's half mine ;)

[Iain]

Then you're on the wrong forum mate.....

[BrisWesty]

Andy, can I get one of the earlier tee times? I've got to be back on the northside by about 1:30pm.

[AndyP]

Okay, I'll shuffle someone out from my draft that didn't require the early time.

Shavey, I need to pass on the groups, including all names and clubs to McLeod on Thursday. So you'll need to confirm by then, and I'll see if I can find extra places in the field.

[BrisWesty]

and if Shavey does confirm, perhaps Matchplay part 2 is in order?

[shavey]

BW.. let's do it!

Hopefully McLeod can sort this one out...

[terryand]

I'm thinking of getting a cart for this game seeing as I have a bit of a drive home after :?

Could you please organize one for me A-Lo.

Terry.

[AndyP]

BW.. let's do it!

Hopefully McLeod can sort this one out...
I'll ring tomorrow to see if they have any early groups with 2 spots available. Fingers crossed.


Could you please organize one for me A-Lo.
Are you taking the piss?

[Moe Norman]

AP - if there is a lone group with 2 spots, me and Andreas are happy to take it so the matchplay isn't ruined.

OR

if required (I'd prefer nto to as it will be my first game in 3 months) I can play my first round mathplay

[AndyP]

Thanks for the offer, Thommo, I may take you up on it, as I was wondering who I would slot into the two. Of course, I have to get those spots first.

Azza isn't playing, so you can't play your matchplay???

[Moe Norman]

i wasn't aware who i was playing in the matchplay, so thats sweet

[AndyP]

So you've had no contact with him and vice versa? That's a concern.

[dc68]

Well dq both of them!!!!!!!!!!



;)

[AndyP]

Well dq both of them!!!!!!!!!!
You don't have a conflict of interest, do you, Dave? ;)

Anyone else want to play to make it a round 30? Invite a friend maybe.

I'll start sending out some PMs to grab full names and home clubs of those I don't already know.

[Moe Norman]

probably because I haven't been abe to play golf for 3 months - whats the point of contact?

[AndyP]

Sorry Shavey, they no longer have anything available in the morning and they have a waiting list for those morning groups (at this stage I didn't add your name to it).
There is afternoon groups available though.
Do you want to just stay as a reserve within our group in the event that one of us pull out in the last week and a bit?

Do you want to just stay as a reserve within our group in the event that one of us pull out in the last week and a bit?


Don't you mean WHEN one of us pulls out?

[AndyP]

I actually expected a pullout by now, but it hasn't happened. Regardless, it's still bigger than Ben Hur.

[dc68]

True

[Moe Norman]

its not really fair for the big man to miss out for a non ozgolfer.

i can switch me and the danish man to the arvo if there is a spot

[Jarro]

I actually expected a pullout by now, but it hasn't happened.


Wait till you post the groupings ;)

[AndyP]

You could also argue that it's not really fair for someone to be moved for someone that registered late. ;)

Andreas has come to a few days now, and probably knows a few of the guys.
It's up to you though. I haven't supplied any names to the club yet, so you would just have to book yourself in the arvo, and not worry about crossing out names in the morning. Let me know what you want to do/have done.

[Moe Norman]

we both want to lay and have leave passes arranged.

what time isn't an issue, but obviously we'd prefer to be grouped with Jarro.

[andylo]

we both want to lay and we'd prefer to be grouped with Jarro.

:mrgreen:

[BrisVegas]

Wait till you post the groupings ;)

true. (cough.... cough...) :wink:

[poidda]

Why doesn't Shavey just take Alo's spot. He probably wont show anyway. :)

[dc68]

Was wondering how long that was going to take!

[shavey]

Still plenty of time for a dropout or 5..

Really want to continue my matchplay with BW and this is the perfect opportunity due to our travelling times..

Will wait and see what happens with those already registered..

[just]

Why doesn't Shavey just take Alo's spot. He probably wont show anyway. :)

Just tell his missus that he needs to do housework and he'll be out in a flash.

[BrisWesty]

I'm happy to go in with MTB, ALo and Macca if you want.

[gazgolf1]

Sorry I have been a bit slack on this thread....Would like to get Blakey and my matchplay game out of the way here.
So maker of groups please keep us in mind. :)

[AndyP]

Don't worry, Gaz, Blakey has already been in my ear and I'd already assumed.

Westy, your early request will be taken care of.

[markTHEblake]

Sorry Gaz, I never mentioned it to you before, I simply have to be in the 1st group.
(mainly becuase i know your not a morning person)

[Moe Norman]

went to the range today to hit my first golf ball in 10 weeks.

hit it like a busted arse, but so far so good on the pain front - so this day is officially locked in for me now!

[markTHEblake]

hit it like a busted arse,

Sounds like a hustle to me.

Moe Norman or Titanic Thompson?

[AndyP]

I hope you pull up okay this morning, Moe.

[AndyP]

I've worked my magic on the draw again, taking into account the time requests and matchplay first. Then I've tried to mix up the groups to get OZgolfers to play with others they may not have played with before, or not very often.

Once again AP shows his excellent organizing skills. Thank AP.

[Moe Norman]

Excellent!

See you on the tee Jarro :)

[Jarro]

nice work P :p

[AndyP]

Do you want to run throught the architectural merits or failures of the 10th hole for him now, just so he has something to get started on?

[Moe Norman]

I don't know whats wrong with the 10th?

PS: I know Jarro doesn't want to hear about it so I won't say a word - I hope he affords me the same courtesy ;)

I've had one game with the big man, and I thought it was very enjoyable.

[Jarro]

I'll have my iPod on during the round

[Moe Norman]

thats not very sociable, we will have a Danish guest.

(who is a massive ho with a lag at the top of his swing, so you should get along really well ! )

[Rusty]

ah, that last timeslot suits me perfectly :)

[PeteyD]

We have every tee off the 10th for an hour?? This is Biggerer than Ben Hur!

Make that almost. Still pretty imprssive field of Ozgolfers.

[markTHEblake]

Is Anyone going past/nearby Keperra that is able to give Macleod a lift to Macleod.
(he lives adjacent to Keppera GC clubhouse)

Should be pretty safe for you, its early in morning and his endorphins wont have kicked in yet.

Only lift to golf required, I'll be taking him away early (do i here everyone saying thank god) cheers.

[markTHEblake]

shavey
dougk

(Nb, will need to be in very early group too if cant be done doesnt matter and yes, he has a handicap)

[gazgolf1]

Macleod

Who?? ;)

[PeteyD]

Do NOT have any food in the car if you pick him up ;)

[markTHEblake]

and don't drink his staminade.

[BrisWesty]

I can probably go to "Maccas drivethrough" at Keperra. I'll be the one driving around Keperra yelling out "Macleod". Will be just after 6am though.

[markTHEblake]

I'll let him know, thanks.

[BrisWesty]

I will need an address.

[shavey]

C'mon guys, where are the usual suspects for dropping out or is 5 days still too much notice ;)

[steverawlo]

Shavey, I can't say this far out but my neck/back is killing me after an ill fated "horsey ride" given to my two year old daughter. I'm off to the physio tomorrow so I'll know more then. It's bloody stiff and sore at the moment but I really want to Choppa a hiding so I'll give it until late as possible to rule myself out.

[Jarro]

steverawlo = :smt061

c'mon mate, you've only got a pain in the neck ... i have to play with one in my group :roll:


:razz:

[AndyP]

C'mon guys, where are the usual suspects for dropping out or is 5 days still too much notice ;)
I can't remember how many pulled out in the last week last year, but I didn't pull the pin until the evening before.

[Moe Norman]

i'm looking forward to seeing the Bridgey's in action Jarro - have considered a set of them myself.

[Jarro]

You should get a set Moe, they are very nice 8)

It's bloody stiff and sore at the moment but I really want to Choppa a hiding so I'll give it until late as possible to rule myself out.

Don't worry about me mate. If you are not good for this weekend, we can reschedule. I want to make sure you are 110% so there are no excuses when I give you a hiding.
Now if you go and tell me that you can't drink with a sore back then we will be having words ;)

[andylo]

AP, we don't have any course guide etc on this course do we?

Also can you recall if they hand out the pin position/distance like Headland does?

[goughy]

Centre of the green alo, every shot over 100mtrs go centre of the green.

[kpac]

every shot over 100mtrs go centre of the green.
:shock: EVERY shot, "centre of the green" :lol: :lol:

[Jarro]

How about "keep up with the group in front" ;)

[AndyP]

Don't worry about me mate. If you are not good for this weekend, we can reschedule. I want to make sure you are 110% so there are no excuses when I give you a hiding.
Now if you go and tell me that you can't drink with a sore back then we will be having words ;)
Would the drinking then be rescheduled as well?


AP, we don't have any course guide etc on this course do we?
No, I don't.


Also can you recall if they hand out the pin position/distance like Headland does?I can't remember being handed one, but it has been two years since I played it.

[goughy]

Depending when rob's dad and mum are heading home I could with the smallest possibility put myself in as another reserve. Although I seriously doubt a 2nd will be needed for such a huge day.

[steverawlo]

steverawlo = :smt061

Way to kick a man while he's down Jarro............:wink:

Feeling pretty confident about making it. The Gregory Peck is feeling better every day. Physio reckons I've had a mild case of whiplash!! What's doing there???

[AndyP]

Depending when rob's dad and mum are heading home I could with the smallest possibility put myself in as another reserve. Although I seriously doubt a 2nd will be needed for such a huge day.
Why tease yourself like this?
I think you'd be third reserve.

[Choppa]

[quote=AndyP;153095]Would the drinking then be rescheduled as well?
[quote]

I knew you didn't have permission to go. You are looking for an excuse now so you don't have to tell us that your wife is making you come straight home after work ;)

[BrisVegas]

You are looking for an excuse now so you don't have to tell us that your wife is making you come straight home after work ;)

:oops: did i mention i'm only a chance for drinks...:wink:

[Moe Norman]

i didn't know there were drinks - I'm no chance for that.

[goughy]

Why tease yourself like this?
I think you'd be third reserve.

Not teasing myself. If I don't play this (which I doubt I will) I'll play up here. Maybe even my first saturday gome for more than 2 years I think!

[AndyP]

There's been a withdrawal from notlob. Congratulations shavey, you are in.

As a result, I have to change the groups around slightly.
A-Lo will need to go to the first group, Westy and Shavey will play in the second, and billybaub moves to a later time. This also means dougk can't be a reserve, unless there is a pullout from the first two groups. Hope this doesn't cause too many problems.

Who's this billybaub dude, don't think i've ever met him :?

I played with him at Redland Bay last year.......what a tool..........NOT.

He's cool. Young bloke with the world at his feet. I think he had just come back from the world cup soccer when we played at Redland Bay, lucky bastard.

Can anyone help me understand this?

AndyP has the start time as 7:06 to 7:54 and I'm down for a group at 7:36. Now do I turn up at least fifteen minutes prior to 7:06, 7:36 or 7:54?

Am I considered late if I turn up at 8:00 and the last group is halfway down the 10th and I tee off and run after them and catch them up?

Inquiring minds need to know!!

p.s. Can someone provide me the address of McCleod GC so I can find my way there?

[Jarro]

does that make you a 9 marker?


nope, back to 11 again ;)

Swing tips will not be coming your way Moe :wink:

Gertrude McLeod Cresent
Mt Ommaney

And if you turn up late you will be boiled in oil ... err I think they won't let you play.

[just]

Don't worry Petey, I won't let OZGOLF or Gertrude down, I'll be there on time!:wink:

[Moe Norman]

just.

turn off at Mt. Ommaney shopping centre, then take the first left down past the shopiing centre heading west. From there it is signed all the way.

[PeteyD]

First right moe?

[AndyP]

First right moe?
He is talking about the intersection straight after the roundabout off the highway, which is a left.
It should be a right at the second set of lights after this, then another turn right into Gertrude a few streets down.

[PeteyD]

Ok that clears that up :)

[AndyP]

Ok that clears that up :)
Coming from your direction, you'd be better off getting the exit before that one anyway.
Hope that confuses you. :D

[PeteyD]

Nah I shall be fine, particularly with the still drunk navigator in the shotgun seat.

It seems like just yesterday we were at McLeod for this thing last year! Geez time flies....

Dont trust anyone. Google is your friend.
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=McLeod+Country+Golf+Club,+Mount+Ommaney+brisbane&sll=-27.550742,152.918487&sspn=0.02028,0.035448&layer=&ie=UTF8&z=14&ll=-27.541306,152.940331&spn=0.040564,0.070896&om=1&iwloc=A

[AndyP]

That map with an approximation is a great help.........

[poidda]

For those who haven't used the internet before, this map might help betterer. http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=+Gertrude+McLeod+Crescent,+Mount+Ommaney+brisban e&sll=-27.541306,152.940331&sspn=0.035617,0.066776&layer=&ie=UTF8&z=17&ll=-27.551389,152.925375&spn=0.004452,0.008347&om=1

You will notice some '+' and '-' buttons. This will move you about the map if you need. Also there are other '+' and '-' buttons which zoom in and ou. (yes i know this is confusing. which is which, I hear you ask?!?!)

Next week we'll learn how to drag the map about by pressing the button (left one that is) and moving the mouse at the same time, followed by using the mouse wheel to zoom in/out. This all takes some skill and hours of practise.


I hope this now helps!

[AndyP]

At least the map is over the right spot now instead of my house.

The hybrid map is pretty cool.

[BrisWesty]

Match play with Shavey is ON.
How'd that happen?
How cool is that!
Love ya work AndyP!

Looking forward to watching Vegas and Tezza go to work on each other too.

[Choppa]

Looking forward to watching Vegas and Tezza go to work on each other too.

:-s

[AndyP]

I know most of us know to do this, but I said I would pass it on.


Could you pass on to your group that they put/write their full GolfLink number at the top of their cards. This will assist us when checking cards and handicaps if you maintain your record of providing a winner on the day.

[BrisVegas]

Tez - what hcap are you on now? Do you still have one?

[BrisVegas]

AndyP - will you be providing colour, laminated course guides for everyone playing this thing???

I could certainly use some tips, after some of the odd places I seem to end up at this "sl@t" of a course...

[AndyP]

Their site has a course map and a scorecard and there's always google earth. I couldn't find a scorecard at home though to find out if their matchplay index is standard.

[BrisWesty]

:-s

Should I have rephrased that, Choppa?

Their matchplay should be worth watching. Is that better?

[Choppa]

:smt023

[shavey]

Looking forward to another epic matchplay round against my nemisis BW ;)

[BrisWesty]

Bring it on Biatch! ;-)

[terryand]

Tez - what hcap are you on now? Do you still have one?

Still have one, still 8. You're throwing the party Vegas :) Albeit a little one :-s

Infact while I was at Windy on Saturday I paid up my AGU maintenence fees until the end of June 2008 8-)

Terry.

[BrisVegas]

Still have one, still 8. You're throwing the party Vegas :) Albeit a little one :-s

Last time we played, I think you spotted me a couple and beat me by about 10. :( Hopefully it's closer this time. ;)

[Choppa]

Oh look out, my new driver just arrived (thanks mystery ho).
I have one hand on this cup already :mrgreen:

[Jarro]

Well, you've got one hand on something :p

[Choppa]

2 hands on that, and still one on the cup ;)

[Jarro]

You have 3 hands ?? :-s

[AndyP]

I like how you are thinking about the Cup and not even worrying about the match against Steve, because you consider it to be a walkover.
