Slight change of plans. Anyone available Sunday 27th arvo, Monday 28th morning?

[LeftyHoges]

OK, so assuming we win our basketball semi-final tonight (which we should) my trip has become an over-nighter and can include a game from approx 12.30pm onwards on Sunday 27th and a mid-morning game (approx 10.00am) on Monday the 28th. I would basically have to be leaving the city around 3.00PM to make it back for the bball grand final @ 8.00PM but won't be able to play too early as I'll be picking up my GF's new car early in the morning.

Bearing in mind if you play with me you will have to put up with a 2-handicapper who is in the midst of some swing changes and currently playing like a 15 handicapper, so some foul language may occur. Plus I'm also sporting a pretty bad Mo' at the moment so you'd have to stare at my ugly mug for 4+ hours (not that its any better without the Mo'). Let me know if anyone is available!!!

Preferences for courses would be East or North of the city, South-East if its not too far of a hike. If no-one is available on Mon morn can anyone suggest a course within 20-30 mins of Preston that plays comps on a Monday?
Cheers

Good stuff Kev! Glad you could join us.

Sorry forgot to mention green fees are an outrageous $29. Not bad for one of the premium public courses in Melbourne.

Also, unfortunately, I wont be able to stick around long after the game as I'll need to get to Richmond, then Oakleigh to pick up the GF's new car. Plan is that I'll need to be leaving the course no later than 1:00. Hope this doesn't put you off / out too much guys. Would have loved to have stuck around for a beer or two (hopefully there's time for that anyway) but I'm on a tightish schedule. It does look like I'll be coming to Melb quite a few times in the next six months though so there should be plenty of chances to catch up for games.

Lefty, if you need a lift from YB to Richmond, that's fine as that's where I'm headed to work afterwards.

[LeftyHoges]

Jack, that would be a HUGE help, but I don't want to put you out. I'm heading to Bridge Rd, is that anywhere near where you're going?

[Webster]

Lefty, thats right on my flight path. No problem at all.

[LeftyHoges]

[LeftyHoges]

Beauty boys, definitely an official OzGolf event then. As this years POTY is done can we add this to 2012???

Really looking forward to this gents! I just hope I hit the thing even 50% better than what I did last Saturday!

[mint]

I'm REALLY curious to see it in action. When I was a junior I used to play with a kid who did the same. I think the best cap he got to was 26, so anything lower than that is an improvement.

It's like watching Edward Scissorhands trying to put a franger on.

I laughed.






A lot!

[kev]

Only one word to describe it mint - ****ed., sorry make that two words - totally ****ed.

[mint]

hahaha jack that is the best analogy I have heard I will take it as a compliment!

KEV the funnies part about that is I was at a Titleist fitting day yesterday and the fitting bloke said the EXACT same thing..

Lefty that kid obviously didn't try hard enough to pull the piss out of every swing coach he has come across like I did ..I am down to 3

[Webster]

Kev and Jack 2 up on Lefty and Mint after 9

[LarryLong]

Sounds like vindication for people who hold the club the right way!

[Webster]

4/3 win to Jack and Kev. Quality golf all round.

[kev]

Thanks guys for some great company. Not a bad little course really.

[Webster]

It's surprisignly good Kev for an honest public track. Can't argue with the $29 midweek green fee.

How about those flying foxes? Bizarre.....
