What a shame Andy just lost a stack of shots. That'll teach him for playing comp golf!

Surreptitious edit there PeteyD,
Thanks Reenie, but ALo and I are both married! ;-)

BrisWesty
27th May 2007, 08:48 PM
OK Andy, shall we set this up for Nudgee Plate?

Fishman Dan
27th May 2007, 09:33 PM
Westy - that's an honour board event. That's his specialty!!!

Jarro
28th May 2007, 12:15 AM
Alo still hasn't confirmed his availability for the Nudge Plate BW :-s

BrisWesty
29th May 2007, 06:32 AM
That's good, because I've just had to pull out. I'd better PM the man!

AndyP
29th May 2007, 07:20 AM
Are you both available on the Queen's Birthday holiday?
Maybe Beerwah has a comp on? Nambour definitely does.

A-Lo might be spending a bit more time at home once July comes.

BrisWesty
29th May 2007, 09:41 PM
Alaina's b'day Queen's birthday weekend (isn't that appropriate)!
She's off to DFO with her Mum on Saturday, so it won't be happening then. I think she's already made plans for the Sunday lunch but don't know if she's organised anything for Monday as yet.

BrisWesty

Nope, PeteyG has taken alo's spot as the chat room sitter.

Alo actually does work these days so isn't in the chat room so much. I will give him a push to play the matchplay.

He's no gheyer than you Petey. He's just a snappy dresser. ;)

BrisWesty

Hey ALo, would you be up for a game on the Monday morning of the Queen's birthday weekend?

andylo
8th June 2007, 06:29 AM
Where's the ideal location? :)

AndyP
8th June 2007, 07:49 AM
I'll offer Nambour again, guys.

BrisWesty
8th June 2007, 08:36 AM
Given I'm apparently going to see Shrek 3 in the afternoon with the girls it'll need to be close to home.

andylo
8th June 2007, 09:27 AM
I am not too sure about this weekend now.... all need to depends on tomorrow's check up. I will try to let you guys know. If you don't hear from me, obviously I am not avaliable (staying in hospital maybe?)

BrisWesty
8th June 2007, 09:53 AM
Is your foot still giving you grief?

Or is this CLo/baby stuff?

andylo
8th June 2007, 10:01 AM
baby stuff...

I already cut off the darn foot and use a titantium one for replacement :roll:

I saw it this morning and it wasn't too bad.

The match should have been played at Woodford. :razz:

BrisWesty
10th June 2007, 06:22 AM
Probably would have been a tie anyway - was only 1 point in it.

Caboolture is playing 4BBB tomorrow, so I'd be happy to have a hit elsewhere if that works for ALo, if he's prepared to play after a 10 day break!

I'd even go somewhere closer to town if that would assist Andy to come along too.

BrisWesty
19th June 2007, 05:19 PM
I've offered to play at Riverlakes this Saturday if that enables us to get the match play over with.

Can anyone fill me in on what the costs will be to play in the comp?

Would anyone else be interested in coming along too? Not sticking this in as a separate thread yet, just in case Andy can't make it.

shazza_rs
19th June 2007, 05:22 PM
Briswesty... pete and i will be playing there on saturday....

comp fee should be 20 bucks i think.... don't know never paid a visitors comp fee

Jono
19th June 2007, 05:32 PM
You guys still haven't played this yet?

What time were you thinking of playing Westy?

AndyP
19th June 2007, 10:11 PM
I'll offer Nambour yet again, as I am up there again this weekend, although I'm not sure what time I can play or whether I can get a full group. I'd also doubt that A-Lo would be willing to travel. The fixture says Saturday's format is Par.

BrisWesty
20th June 2007, 05:44 AM
I'd be looking at playing early-ish

andylo
20th June 2007, 06:36 AM
Sorry guys, can't make it at all :(

From tomorrow my mum will be here to "help out".... which really means I need to behave and take care of 1 more person.

From what I can see the bub can come out anytime while we are speaking (typing) and bub is really getting down and low.

I doubted I can even see my golf club for the next 2-3 weeks! :cry: Any idea when is the due date for the 2nd round?

goughy
20th June 2007, 06:51 AM
Can I have back in!!! I only just lost, and ap got 5 games to play 2 matches. And I'm available!!

peter_rs
20th June 2007, 07:22 AM
end of the month alo so 10 days

AndyP
20th June 2007, 07:41 AM
.......with some allowance usually. It would depend on when you realistically think you can get out for this game, and match up with Westy's schedule without holding up the rest of the draw..

BrisVegas

man up lady bug. I played my matchplay game against Nudgee the day after bubs was born when my wife was in hospital. What better time? They got all the care and attention they need close at hand. What more could you offer?

Grunt
20th June 2007, 08:03 AM
Have to agree there BV, the period between birth and homecoming has to be appreciated as you wont get anywhere near as good a period to do what you want to do for some time to come.

andylo
20th June 2007, 12:53 PM
Westy,

I can do it this Saturday 11am onward, and Sunday anytime.

Or, next weekend, but perferable on Sunday.

Same as week after that too.

BrisWesty
21st June 2007, 10:06 PM
Shazza, when are you and Pete playing on Saturday? And do you have a spare spot? Besides yourselves (who have already sorted your stuff out) it looks like we've got 5 trying to fit into 4 at the moment.

shazza_rs
22nd June 2007, 05:57 AM
pete and i are playing a 7:58am.

Just rang the pro shop and if alo hasn't already booked you in there is no spots left in the field... only for a twosome at 12:28.

BrisWesty
22nd June 2007, 06:32 AM
Thanks Shazza.

DC, that might be an option for you and your mate (despite AP's protestations to the contrary) perhaps?

BrisWesty
23rd June 2007, 06:19 PM
At long last - game on - Woodford - no, Nambour - no, Nudgee - no, Riverlakes - yes

Andy Lo didn't have to forfeit due to the pitter patter of little feet. Jarro bailed out. ;-)

1st - ALo on the green in reg, BW went way left then into the greenside bunker, out to 2m. ALo 2 putted for a simple par, and Westy sand saved. All square.

2nd - Par 5 - ALo went left off the tee, got on the green in 4, BW on in regulation - both to about 15m. ALo 2 putted, BW 3 putted. All square.

3rd - Par 3 - Both on in regulation, about 15m from the hole (again). BW 3 putted (again), ALo showed him how to putt by making his comeback putt for par. ALo 1 up

4th - Par 4 - ALo gets his first shot. Doesn't nail his drive and lays up short of the water, puts his third in the left rear bunker, and walks away with triple. BW gets on in regulation to about 15m (for the 3rd time in a row), and only just lags the ball down the hill close enough for a tap in par. Back to square.

5th - Par 4 - ALo slightly right of centre, BW just off fairway to the left. Neither on in reg, but ALo plugs his 3rd in the top of the bunker guarding the green. He has no shot, and takes 2 to get out. Westy almost putts in from off the green for par, but settles for bogey to go one up.

6th - Par 5 - ALo pulls his iron into the water on the left. BW lays up short of the creek. Both end up in the trees on the right with our next shot. ALo plays a brilliant draw out over the water and scrub on the right and ends up just short of the green. Westy is pretty close to the tree, so just punches out onto the fairway. Both then get up and down with a 1 putt, but Westy's par beat ALo's bogey. Westy 2 up.

7th - short par 4 - ALo goes left off the tee, and puts his second in the water left of the green. BW flirts with the water on the right off the tee and puts his 2nd on in reg. ALo gets his next on. Both 2 putt, and Westy extends the lead to 3 up.

8th - par 3 - ALo gets a shot. ALo goes left, and after he advises Westy not to go right, Westy goes right. At this point in time Pete and Shazza rock up. ALo gets to the fringe with his 2nd then up and down from there for bogey. Westy duffs his 2nd into the bunker, gets out, hits his putt and starts walking before the putt finishes rolling, but to his surprise it actually falls into the hole. ALo stops the rot and it's back to 2up.

9th - Par 4 - Pete drives the cart to the tee and back again with ALo and Westy hanging on for grim death. Turns out he's actually scoping the opposition for the next round of matchplay. Westy gets a par in regulation, ALo has to settle for bogey and Westy's 3up at the turn.

10th - long par 4 - ALo gets a shot. ALo has a dirty hole (let me rephrase that). Westy doesn't do much better. Both drown balls in the lake at different stages, but Westy's double just beats ALo's quad bogey - 4 up.

11th - par 4 - ALo goes into one of the left traps and chips out. Westy is about 30 m short of the green off the tee. Westy's chip hits the tree just left of the green an richochets into the bunker on the right. More ugly golf ensues and both players walk off with double bogeys to halve the hole. Westy wonders where his form has gone from the first 9?

12th - par 4 - Another shot for ALo. Westy's on in reg and ALo's on the fringe but Andy rolls in a clutch putt from about 3m to register a par and win the hole. 3 up - 6 to play.

13th - long par 5 - ALo hits his tee shot into the water. Westy thinks he's home and hosed. ALo proceeds to reload and play the rest of the hole as a par, almost chipping in to get his bogey/birdie. Westy loses his 2nd somewhere. Reloads, and ends up 3 putting from near the 10th flag (double green). ALo's double beats Westy's triple. This is getting ugly folks! - 2 up.

14th - Par 3 - Both players are short of the green, chip on and just miss par putts. Hole halved. 2 up, 4 to play.

15th - Short Par 4 - ALo tops his hybrid, Westy hits into the water. ALo puts his second on the right fringe of the green. Westy finds his ball, and hits his 3rd to about 5m. ALo chips to about 5m. Both players wuss out on their downhill putts and tap in for bogey. 2 up, 3 to play. Westy is leaving an oil slick behind him.

16th - par 3 - ALo gets a shot and rolls his tee shot onto the green about 8m from the hole. Westy misses the green slightly long and left of the hole, but a similar distance from the flag. "Do you want the flag in or out?" "Oh, take it out, no leave it in." At this point Westy has no idea about what to do, sp plays a pitch and run that hits the flag (that he'd changed his mind and left in) and the ball falls straight into the hole for a birdie 2. If the ball hadn't hit the flag it probably would have been another 5m past. Pressure's on Andy, leaves his first putt a couple of metres short, and his second putt slides by the left side of the hole. Game over 3 and 2.

Played the last 2 holes bogey, par.

Andy didn't play anywhere near his best, but still competed. He was a very gracious host and it was really pleasant getting to know him a little more. A lovely day for golf too. The rain held off, and there were only a couple of little sprinkles. It was cool, but how many times have we bitched about it being too hot.

I've ended up with 83 off the stick - 4 over for the first 9 (5 GIR), and 9 over for the back 9 (oops). Certainly left some putts out there, and 2 lost balls as well, so it could have been anything.

3/3 sand saves (that's a first for me)
6 GIR
6 fairways
32 putts with a chip in & 3 3 putts (could do without those 3 though).

Felt very clean hitting the ball and it felt like it was getting some reasonable distance too, so overall very happy with the round.

If you ever get the chance have a hit with with Andy's practice "balls". Very cool!

I really like Riverlakes. It makes you think, and while it's not as long as some other courses there's definitely no identical holes. I found it fairly tough reading some of the distances, it can be quite deceptive on occasion.

Eags and Jarro, you missed out. There were lots of sledging opportunities that went begging.

Yep, it was terrible weather at my joint all day so there was no way in hell I was going out in it just for a social hit.
If it was a comp, then maybe I would of ventured out ;)
