2018 QLD Championships - Brisbane

[benno_r]

Good evening fellow Ozgolfers,

I would like to welcome you to the 2018 Ozgolf Queensland championships in exciting Bris-vegas!

The prestigious Duncan Bennett Memorial Trophy will again be up for grabs as golfers across the country compete to be Qld's top Ozgolfer. Will you be able to defeat last years Champion, LeftyHoges, and get your name on the converted trophy?

Kicking off Thursday 13th September, and finishing on Monday 17th September, we aim to bring some of QLD's finest golf. The best part is we are paying the weekend fields during club championship season, so the courses will be as premo as they get.

THE GOLF:
Thursday 13th September - Kooralbyn Valley CC: http://ramadaresortkooralbynvalley.com.au/golf/
24 spots, 11:40am first group. Carts included. And since we like to hit the ground running, we are entered in the famous "Copperhead" Back Marker challenge.
$75 inc cart and prize fee

Friday 14th September - Royal Queensland GC: http://www.rqgolf.com.au/cms/welcome/
28 Spots, 10:00am first group. Walking only. Also includes the terrifying 2-ball Banana Cup best ball multiplier
$170 inc prize fee

Saturday 15th September - Pacific Harbour GC: http://www.pacificharbourgolf.com.au/golf/
28 spots, 11:45am first group. Carts, comp fee and pre-round burger included.
CHAMPS Day 1
$90 inc prize fee.

Sunday 16th September - Brookwater GC: http://brookwater.com.au/golf/
28 Spots, 10:30am first group. Carts Included.
CHAMPS Day 2
$125 inc cart and prize fee

Monday 17th September - Royal Nudgee - North Course: http://www.nudgeegolf.com.au/welcome/
16 Spots, 8:20am first group. Walking or Carts - 4 carts booked
$45inc prize fee. $40/cart

The Prizes:
Long drive / Multiple NTP for balls every day. Daily cash prizes for 1st and 2nd (and maybe 3rd), overall podiums, and best gross. Value TBC, but the champ usually walks away with $400+.

ACCOMMODATION:
Bookings start Thursday night, through to Sunday night at Arena Apartments in vibrant West End: http://www.arenabrisbane.com.au/

Close to eateries, cafes, breweries - seems like a great place to let Bushy loose every night.

I have booked 4x 2bed room apartments - 3 in queen + 2x single config, and 1 with 2x singles in both rooms. Prices are:
Solo room - $110/night
Share room - $55/night per person

And the fine print:
1. You will not be considered as entered until you supply your Full name, club and Golflink.
2. Deposits (min 20%) to be paid by end July. Remaining by End August. Late entries will be accepted pending availability.
3. All rounds for championship purposes will be scored as stableford.
4. We do this for fun, so don't be a dick if we don't quite have what you want, or you don't like it.

Payment by bank transfer - Please leave your user name and QLD as the message ie "QLD - username"

Any chance of updating the spreadsheet in the first post Benno?

Should be up to date. What have I missed?

[PeteyD]

Welcome aboard the last spot - NSW's sneakiest flusha, TS!!

That gives us 27 for RQ and 28 for the weekend. Thanks all for supporting this event.

Numbers don't marry, but if it's up to date all good.

[benno_r]

Numbers don't marry, but if it's up to date all good.

Yeah, we have had some late withdrawals.

Also, does anyone know Josh Atterbury?

[benno_r]

Also, there are a few outstanding monies. All players please review the table above - any non payments will have Peppas sicc'd on them.

[Daves]

Yeah, we have had some late withdrawals.

Also, does anyone know Josh Atterbury?

I had a message from a Josh about a month ago, and he was pretty flat out with work etc. He hasn't logged on since, so I assume no change to his circumstances and he would be a very unlikely starter. I do have a mobile number for him, I think.

[AndyP]

Unfortunately, I am at risk of missing this now. I was diagnosed with osteitis pubis on Friday, and the physio has suggested that I don't play golf, especially so early. I haven't decided what to do yet. The risk is that I could make things significantly worse, but I don't think that is too likely. It is more likely that it would set my recovery back a bit.

At the moment, I'm thinking that I could try to play the cart rounds on Saturday and Sunday, and nothing else, with the option of pulling the pin for the Sunday round, if things hurt like crazy after round one. I think I need to do some sort of golf fitness test first, which is hard when I've been hesitant to do too much walking this weekend.

Does anyone else have experience of playing golf with this sort of injury?

The worse part is that I will definitely not be able to participate in the OZgolf Champs parkrun.

[PeteyD]

Harden up P! Hopefully you can manage to play the weekend.

Looks like Benno paid the weather gods well this year.

Benno, do you need our golflink details?

[Jono]

Ouch AndyP. Take it easy and see how you go.

Would a massage help??

[benno_r]

Benno, do you need our golflink details?

Yes please, that would make life easier.

Yes please, that would make life easier.

[thecollective]

Yes please, that would make life easier.

depends if it comes with a happy ending

[marcel]

Not sure if this has been asked by others in the thread - is anyone able to give me a lift to Brisbane after the Kooralbyn game on Thursday?
Staying at Ashgrove but a lift to anywhere in the burbs would be greatly appreciated

[marcel]

Any Kooralnyn spots left, have a mate that'll take one if yes

[BUSHY]

I think Thursday is full. Benno should be able to confirm.
