    I won't get there. Also, with Pennant coming up, I will have about 2 months with no comp golf.

    Rubes do you think the fact I have no idea about my clubs swingweight, lofts, lies or lengths will be a big advantage for you?

    no.

    Do you think the fact that you constantly try and pull the piss out of everyone and everything will be an advantage for you?

    Ha ha, same boat. Will never get there, plus our pennant starts this Sunday so at least 4 or 5 weeks of no comp golf.

    I actually doubt I'll play another comp round until City of Cairns tournament in August.

    Disturbing.

    I am sorry for the piss taking rubes, it is because I am a grumpy old man with no love in his heart. If all that stuff makes you happy then it is ok with me. Except the midget in the freezer that will never be ok.

    Yoss, I would like to play off 2.0 to 2.9 consistently. If I could get to 1, great. With it getting dark so early, I play very little golf this time of year.

    But after winter season you will have more time.
    What would your goal be then.
    Just for the record, i would like to be back to 3 by the end of the year.

    I would like to play off 1. I will need to dedicate some time to practising, which is something I have never done. I purchased my first range balls in about 9 months on Sat before my round to sort out my ott issues. Got about 3/4 of the way through it.Trying to spend a lunch hour a week at Wembley to work on wedges. Did it twice a couple weeks ago and noticed instant results. Short game will be the key. I also need to settle on a bag and stay with it.

    If you get down to 1 you might have to give me a shot at NC2.
    Forum needs more banter.

    I would hope the man of integrity you are, you would offer a scratch rematch.
    Why exactly do I need to answer to you?

    I hope you've done a good enough job agreeing the terms - would hate for this to turn into another Jarro / Scottt debacle.

    Terms are pretty straight forward.

    lowest actual handicap by tee off at Nully cup II.
    Only way out I see is death.

    What about a popper-esque last minute injury?

    Rubin is a magnificent physical specimen so he will be fine.

    I am already as low as I can go so it isn't really an issue!

    What if one of the players, facing a form slump and increase in handicap, deliberately avoids competition golf?
