2012 Vic Ozgolf Matchplay
Detail
Annual Ozgolf Matchplay event for the Mexicans. After closing date for interest, Bruce and myself will draw 1st round matches out of the hat. Matches will then be posted here. Round 1 will have a cut off date of. (more than likely end of May, due to the lateness of the draw). Round 2 will consist of all round 1 match winners (if odd number of entries some players may get auto entry to second round i.e. last years winner. Round 2 will have a cut off date of (more than likely end of June). Round 3 will consist of all round 2 match winners (if odd number of entries lucky losers get auto entry to third round) Round 3 will have a cut off date of (more than likely end of September). All subsequent rounds will be determined after final numbers have been confirmed. Format is handicapped matchplay i.e. one player has a handicap of 18 and the opponent has a handicap of 15 then the 18 h'caper will get a shot on the 3 hardest holes. It is advisable to organise golf days in an attempt to get multiple matches completed on the one day, also those new Ozgolf members can get to know other Victorian golfers, (all Interstate Ozgolfers are most welcome to play in these days if they are in town)It is the reponsibility of both players of a match to coordinate the playing of said match.Those players that do not have an official handicap are welcome to play, a handicap must be nominated by them prior to teh match in line with their ability. If a hustler is found within the ranks, I reserve the right to do something REALLY REALLY REALLY humiliating to them.

All Victorian Ozgolfers, who nominate for the annual Matchplay event do so with the understanding that they commit to jointly organise and complete a match with the drawn opponent within the allocated timeframe. If you believe that your commitments, outside of Ozgolf, will not allow the required opportunity to play the match please do not nominate in the first place. If a competitor can show evidence where they have attempted to organise a match, on mulitple occasions, at a perceived convenient time with their opponent without success, the match committee reserves the right to award the match (by walkover) to the competitor that has attempted to organise the match. This is an attempt to get this thing run and won annually. Anything not clear let me know.

BGH - just be nice to her. I don't think anybody's tried that tactic yet. If you stay away from the skirt jokes she'll be lacking motivation.

Andi, I look forward to a repeat of our 18th hole choke-fest from a couple of years back, but with a different result this time. Seeing as we're both Richmond supporters, I think it's only fair that the loser should be awarded ninth place?

Sounds like our first round venue is sewn up, but I'd happily offer Queenscliff on a Sunday (or Saturday, for that matter) as a venue for a round two game and see how many we can get down here. I'll obviously be playing. Might also be a way to make the travel slightly easier for the winner out of Lefty and Jack.

Just throwing it out there.

[Firey]

Firey this could get messy!!! Hhaha

Any suggestions for a venue for the carnage Mint?

I'm tied up for a few Sundays caddying for VGA pennant but happy to host around the Easter weekend.

Well FlowerGirl hasn't replied to my PM yet so at this stage I think my game plan is to hope that she doesn't see it by the round cut-off and win my forfeit.

Solid game plan.

Got a backup? You know, just in case...

Lefty, how are you placed these next couple of weeks for a hit after work at PF?

[LeftyHoges]

Lefty, how are you placed these next couple of weeks for a hit after work at PF?

Well, if we're going to do it after work it better be this week or next I suppose as Daylight savings finishes next weekend (31st March / 1st April) doesn't it?

I could probably do Tuesday or Wednesday next week, or this week if necessary...

[mint]

Sounds good mate the monday would work best for me I am thinking

[paulyboy]

Ian, I think you're at Kooringal.
I'm at Sandhurst so we're not far apart.
Any preferences?
Happy to come to you, our greens are absolutely disgraceful ATM but you're welcome to come here too.
Or somewhere else? I'm easy.

[ParkRoyal]

Chappy, is the Easter Monday doable for you?

[chappy1970]

Sorry PR no good, are you free this Sunday morning?

You going down Larry!!!!!!!

[BGH]

Does anyone have any alternate contact details for FlowerGirl? Doesn't look like she has visited the site in a few weeks.

[LeftyHoges]

Lefty, how are you placed these next couple of weeks for a hit after work at PF?

Just looking at the weather forecast and next Tuesday looks ideal. Very little wind which means we could have a low scoring shootout!

EASY!? Excellent news

They cored the Kooringal greens about 3 weeks ago now, so they should be OK. I am playing Saturday so will let you know.

I am willing to travel to play. Would be good to have one of the other games on the same day.

I can play on either a Saturday or Sunday (14/15 April is really the only days I can't play)

Can you play any other day of the week?

[LeftyHoges]

Come join Jack and I at Port Fairy!!!

[IanO]

Come join Jack and I at Port Fairy!!!

Wow, what a tempting offer! Only a 7hr round trip for a 4hr game of golf I might pass just this one time.

[LeftyHoges]

Wow, what a tempting offer! Only a 7hr round trip for a 4hr game of golf I might pass just this one time.

It'll only be 4 hours if you make all 18 holes. better play well

[mint]

Want me to pick you up on the day mate?

She's getting her teeth pulled out at the moment in preparation for joining the Collingwood Cheer Squad.

Brilliant. I put this in a PM, but didn't realise it wasn't going to the rest:

Hard to say no to that offer - not just because of the course, but also because I'm told that Firey has been known to employ a little bit of good old fashioned 'mental disintegration' against Andi and I'm happy to take all the help that's on offer.

Want me to pick you up on the day mate?

I think Andi is going to be the one in need of somebody to pick him up. Off the floor.

I'd best remember to book the group then.



Hopefully Mint will do the right thing by me and play like crap.

[LeftyHoges]

Hopefully Mint will do the right thing by me and play like crap.

I'm sure you know this already but just remember not to watch the swing. You'll spend more time wondering how he does it than concentrating on your own game.
