    Default Kpac vs Iain

    Righto, let's try and get this done. I'm off next week, if we don't play in a comp, I'd like to keep Wednesday free so I can play at Reddy bay. Otherwise I'm good from Monday 29th.

    Ok, 1st attempt at Parkwood, all square.

    2nd attempt, Sun 18th at Robina Woods.

    If interested, a mate and I are the last group at Palm Meadows (12.40ish). ATM we're a two, so there is that option if needed...

    Not well to be honest. I'll call in the am and let you know what the verdict is.

    Helensvale is open if you still want to do it there. But i've been advised that it's "very very wet".
    Carbrook also said they're very wet, and walking only (not that that is an issue)
    The alternatives are Palm Meadows with Timmah or even Parkwood, which handles the rain a little better.
    Parkwood would be a freebie, but can't get on till 2pm. Palm Meadows (how much timmah?) i's a little further for you to drive...

    I'll slug it out at helensvale if you want to stick with it, or let me know and it can call Parkwood and get a slot there.

    I'd rather not play in slop. And unless pam meadows is super cheap, parkwood will be ok.

    We played club championships at Helensvale yesterday.....but we did suspend play at 130 as one of the greens was declared unplayable even though it was just around the hole.

    Then about 3 hours later the 1st 3rd went under. Dont know if it can recovet in just one day I suspect we might put the old first into play again ( we have 19 holes)

    Parkwood is booked in. But for a few of the low areas the course should be fine. It'll be wet, but nothing like the vale.

    Never played parkwood. Looking at some pics it looks like a nice track. Hope the weather holds off for you boys. Enjoy

    All square. Thanks for the round Kent, look forward to the rematch.

    I'm out to dinner atm. Will do a rundown later if Kpac hasn't already.

    Funny you mention slow. I have being hearing that about Parkwood. No disrespect to the new owner but the word is that they are putting as much green fee traffic on the course as they can.

    A guy that we were behind for most of the day was saying (after we joined him on 15) not long ago he played 18 holes in 7.5hrs.

    Great comeback by Iain.
    Down 4 with 5 to go he nutted consecutive birdies to play himself back into it.
    I had a putt on 17 and 18 to win, and missed them both (under 6ft) so it was there to win....

    Great game though mate!! and excellent comeback.

    Quick rundown:

    Kpac swiftly 2 down after 2, with a couple of balls in the drink to boot.
    Kpac wins the 4th and 5th to square match.
    Iain hits back on the 6th only for Kpac to win the 7th and 8th.

    At the turn Kpac 1up

    Kpac wins 10th 11th 12th to be 4 up with 6 left.
    Iain wins 13th with a par
    Iain wins the 15th with a birdie
    Iain wins the 16th with a birdie
    Kpac squares the 17th to be 1 up with 1 left.

    In failing light, my 2nd shot on the par 5 18th, cannot be found, even though it was a short iron layup, presumably it has taken a bounce off the path into the soup. Iain wins the hole

    Result - All square.

    Scores.
    Iain Gross 84 Nett 74
    Kpac Gross 87 Nett 75
    Was a really good match - Iain gave a few strokes away on the 8th hole - otherwise he'd have shot a sub 80 round.

    I wish...
    Even after the drop i had a 5ft putt to square the hole. And i missed a 6ft putt on the 17th, which would have saved me even worrying about the 18th.
    I lost it!
