Who's keen on a game? It's the only time I can play for weeks, so I've just booked a group. There are plenty of spots on the sheet around this time, so more groups is not an issue at the moment.

nuttedit -- 80/69
Vegas -- 83/75
kpac -- 89/77
Jaybam -- 86/81
Iain -- 92/81
Golfer69 -- 94/83
poidda -- 98/86
Shavey -- NCR

Well try for the matchplay here.


Be careful with Windaroo and late tee times...can go 5 hours around there.

Yeah I know, but it's the only chance I have to play.

poidda

I'm sure we can if need be, but I don't even know if Shavey is in yet? If a 6th jumps on board, I'll book another.

Actually, maybe Perci is keen for our matchplay as well?!?!

jaybam
15th April 2008, 11:50 AM
No worries either way im keen :)

Crikey you blokes are quick off the mark! - BrisVegas

That's right... I didn't even know I was in :) but G69 and I have a sixth sense...

He knew I had been thinking about our matchplay there just like he knows I want him to pick me up (and my back-breaking bag), stop off for a pie on the way home and our usual venture to the Robina TAB ;)

I wonder if he knew that I might have something on that weekend though...

Yeah, I did ask Vegas if he wanted a game as I can garunatee he will show up. Is there something wrong with that?

I'm still waiting to hear back from Nuttedit, so it looks like there'll be more groups.

I assume you two are keen as well, so that makes 8.

AndyP
15th April 2008, 02:59 PM
If you put me in pencil, it makes it okay when I pull out a few days before, doesn't it?

Nah, you made it for being a wanker! :)

You want in for this as I'll book another group if there's 6 of us?!?

BrisVegas

oh yeah true. that was in the minutes of our last Krispy Kreme Tour AGM and I forgot to carry it over to the 2008 schedule. My bad.

I'll pop individual letters of invitation into the post box tonight, so you should receive them by Thursday. If you don't get one consider yourself on "The List"

no such thing as sand saves at windaroo. That would imply there was actually sand in the bunkers to begin with :)

Haven't they been listed on the Krispy Kreme Tour website?

BTW a Krispy Kreme store opens in the Brisbane CBD this coming week.

poidda
27th April 2008, 09:13 AM
Cheers for the games guys. The golf was pretty ordinary, and I think I hit more houses than greens in reg, so was always going to struggle from the first tee.

I've added the scores in the first post, and kpac picked up the cash in third place. Gotta love that don't ya nuttedit.

As for Windaroo, it's in terrible condition for no reason other than they obviously don't give a f**k. I won't be rushing back there in a hurry.

jaybam
27th April 2008, 09:19 AM
Cheers for organising the game though poidda was good fun. Even though as we all said it wasnt in the greatest condition. Just reminded me of why i left there last year to find somewhere else. Oh well will find some where else for the next game. Cheers again :)

kpac
27th April 2008, 11:13 AM
cheers poid for organising, was a good day for a laugh. I started with a 9 and thought i shoun't have bothered coming, thankfully things got a little better and i hit some decent shorts in the middle, finishing double/double/double... :roll: but it was an interesting matchplay to watch and good fun golf albeit rubbish conditions. The entire course is disappointing, they've got good holes, good space, tough course and nice grass, but bunkers and greens are an absolute joke! Long putts were seeing backswings get parallel!

markTHEblake
27th April 2008, 04:00 PM

I think I need a spell from playing and and even longer spell from Windaroo.

Hmmm, there's a definite theme emerging here :?

What's the main beef with Windy at the moment ? Bunkers have been crap for ages but the rest of the course was in pretty good shape last time i played there :-s Are the greens crappy too now ?

It's a real shame if they're letting it go to the doghouse ... the layout is pretty interesting/enjoyable in my opinion.

Is windaroo the Mac Grange of Brisbane? Could be good but alas it will never be.

Jarro

Grunt, Windaroo is a far better course than MacGrange

Trust me Grunt we don't have anything even close to a Mac Grange here in Brisbane, thank **** :shock:

Good to hear, Jim & I played there yesterday and they still only have photocopies for scorecards. Not improving at all.

27th April 2008, 06:13 PM
That was once one of the top courses up here. Pity to see it go to crap.

BrisVegas
27th April 2008, 07:15 PM
It's a really interesting layout. But it is back to the shit nick it was in 10 years ago. I'll give it a miss for a while I think. Carbrook and Riverlakes are better options in that vicinity now.

Iain
27th April 2008, 07:52 PM
Or the Bay, not sure I'd put Riverlakes too much ahead of Windy...

Thanks for the game Dion, John and Brett. Like everyone said, too bad for the shit greens! But I was hitting hooks off the tee anyway, so I wasn't going to danger the scorers.

goughy
27th April 2008, 09:20 PM
I got the impression that windy was everyones love bunny! Seemed to a number of games there and all the chatter about snake gully! Unless I got the wrong course.

So has the condition of it dropped dramatically in a short time?

jaybam
27th April 2008, 09:27 PM
yes would be the short answer :)

kpac
27th April 2008, 09:31 PM

i've got it, i'll try get it too you sometime before the weekend.

Snake Gully is a fun hole. I hit driver, 3 wood to be on the back fringe and walked off with a nice double.

Windaroo's bunker have been awful for a long time now. But that's the worst I've seen the greens.

BrisVegas
28th April 2008, 08:45 AM
That drive of poidda's down 18 was HUGE. I was 10 short of the LD marker and felt like I'd got all of it. Poidda flew it by 20. He's an ape.

poidda
28th April 2008, 08:56 AM
The only one he hit longer than that was after we agreed to play the 18th hole for $20..then he proceeded to rip one 300.

Hey you forgot to mention the bet was for $20 and I had to hit driver off the tee. You just wanted to see me collect my 5th house of the day.
