Silly boy, wasted your good shots.
How was your putting, no good getting on in reg and 4 putting.
Is there a planned arrival for Dotty & I? Trying to work out the correct theme for our arrival.

The rain of the last month cleared and the 12 intrepid NSW vs ACT Ozgolfers showed up at a sunny and windy Mt Broughton.
The traditional NSW vs ACT grudge match of TG vs Grunt and Dotty vs Benno lead the groups away, with Benno hoiking it into deep poo left and Grunt no better to the right.
Straight away it was Dotty 1 up and TG 1 up.
Dotty moved quickly to be three up after three, and maintained his lead until the halfway mark. TG had Grunt covered, as both Grunt and myself discovered that snap hooks are a quick way to lose pills at the Mount.
Benno won 10 and was robbed by some nasty bunker casual water on 11, and Dotty looked home at four up after 12. Grunt was goneski with TG hitting fairways and making the crucial ups and downs as everyones favourite Qantas engineer sprayed it around like a curry through a sick indian...
Benno parred 13 and hit a 4 iron into a stiff breeze to 10 foot to bring the margin back to 2 down, whilst Grunt conceded on the 15th green to give the ACT their first ever win in the matchplay title. Dotty hit a brilliant chip from a dead spot to make par, and Benno bogied to sit dormie with three to play.
Dotty's ever reliable hybrid again skirted the edge of a bunker before rolling on the green to make an easy par and win 3 and 2 - so NSW retains on the Bledisloe scoring system 1-1.
Overall, the big winner was BlueScooter. Off a ridiculous 26 handicap, Scooter smoked driver all day, hit brilliant irons, and ended up with 89 off the stick for 45 points.
Daylight was second, with Tongueboy (now there is a story) ending up with an impressive 36, with Jerry Springer, TG and our host TerryS all on 33. Dotty ended up with 29, Matty and Benno 27, Philty Phil on 26 and taking home the NSW ACT NAGA - Grunt with 19.
Jono could only play the front 9 before heading off to work, and Macjack disappeared after the 15th having to head back to Sydney for work.
Highlights were plenty, but a big thanks to Terrys for hosting us. There was hardly another group on the course, and considering the weather we'd had the last month it was in brilliant condition. Only one ball found its way onto the coal train line with Jerry clearing it for 6 and out.
And Grunt - look out for the snake....
Final results
Matchplay - NSW1 ACT 1 - NSW retains on Bledisloe scoring system.
Stableford Score Champs - ACT 111 (45+33+33), NSW 98 (36, 33, 29) - ACT wins
Individual - BlueScooter - 45 points.

Another great NSW/ACT OzGolf day.
Many thanks Benno, TG and Grunt, for the companionship, the commentary and the non-stop laughs. Many thanks to TerryS for hosting us, and great to meet those that travelled north/south for the game.
ps. Revised scoring system #7 ... Dotty wins, as he still had the same ball he started with.

Thanks for the game yesterday guys, both my health and my golf was poor. I dead set have now Idea if it is going to be a good shot or a hook or a slice.
TG, thanks for a great match, it all came down to a couple of really poor hole by myself but you played pretty good. Still only 2-1 so I guess the next match will be just as important for you
I know we all talked of other venues but with Mt Broughton such a good course and to have it like we did yesterday how about we make this an annual event. maybe not the ACT V NSW Cup but just the Mt Broughton Cup. We could even get enough to have it as an official Ozgolf Event. How does March 2010 sound? I will post it in another thread.

That may have been TG's putter after 3 putting to lose the hole

They did have a blackboard with Saturday's local rules behind the proshop door, with play as it lies and drop permitted outside bunkers marked as GUR.

Benno, we know how dirty these NSW lads play, maybe we need to review our fairness at all costs policy....
Thanks for the game lads, a really good day out. It was nice to get ACT's first point, a momumental moment.
Snake!

Why didn't any of the 4 in our group know this? Because we just don't listen I spose
I told everyone in my group! Bunkers with Water to be treated as GUR through the green. I think that as you didn't drop out of the GUR, it's a penalty and loss of hole anyway.

Big thanks to Terry for hosting, wish I had left home earlier (so I could have organised the wedge) and met the people I hadn't met and then not have to work after (was only half an hour late which wasn't too bad). Probably a good thing I didn't play the last two holes, only had two pills left! Considering the rain the course was in great shape! Was very enjoyable playing with Matty and Jerrry Springer, Matt is a great advertisement for the teacher who has fixed his game. He hits it really well, not to mention bloody high!
Would love to see how many balls they would find if they cut the long stuff.
As a matter of interest, what's the quickest way back onto the freeway to Sydney?
By the way, the m5 tunnel is a ****ing joke!

The way I go is to turn left out of Mt Broughton, then first left (forgotten the name) follow that for about 7km turn left and the highway is right there.

The quickest way back to the highway is to turn right onto the Illawarra highway and go back into Moss vale. Turn left into Waite Street towards Berrima, follow this till you get to the train track and turn left just after them, then its about 2km to the Freeway.
there is a shorter way where you turn left directly after leaving the course, but that involves a river crossing and it would have been a bit high this week.

Guys,
If we are going to turn this into an annual Mt Broughton Cup then I reckon we should turn the St Andrews balls into a perpetual trophy with the name, date and score that won the day.
If the majority of people are in agreement or just the organisers, I will bring it along to the next cup. I also reckon the winner should also supply the wine for the winner and naga at the next Cup.
So if it is agreed and the Cup happens next year then I will bring along the balls, with my name on it and two bottles of wine.
Any objections please unload now.
