G.R.I.P.S. Weekend of Golf - Sunday 20th May City GC
Putting this game out there. It is one of the bigger golfing weekends at City Golf Club, and this sunday event would be one of the few open single stroke rounds held on a sunday. I think they have some reasonable prizes this weekend.

The rough is as dead as, the fairways lush and green. Considering the weather the course looks great. The green reno's have pretty much healed up and the greens are looking good for the weekend. Vegas will be happy!

It was $16 last time I remember. I don't know if it's just $10 for this event. It's getting plenty tv advertising up here so I wouldn't be surprised if it's just $10 across the board.
And we still have some spots to fill. We've got 3 groups of 3 atm, but if no more chime in bo tomorrow arvo I'll release one spot in each group back to the field!

First post edited to reflect final groupings. Still room for any stragglers unless the free spots in each group get taken.

First post now edited to reflect scores (if you could call them that)! Had an absolute ball with my mate steve and alo. Shazza commented she could hear us in fits of laughter. Must have been while we were adding up our scores!!

Thanks for the day Goughy. City was in super nik and was surprisingly difficult in the light winds today. I'd forgotten how bloody tight some of those fairways are!
Was good to play with Pete and Ken, although at times when they were blazing away with drivers and I was bunting 3 wood off the tee, it felt like I was in the group behind! We all played ok on the back 9, (Ken -1, Pete +9, Me +3) but all managed to collapse on the front (Ken +9, Pete +20, Me +10).
Still, it was enjoyable and we all managed some good holes to show some potential for better golf. Thanks again.
P.S. AndyP - those shorts were HUGE!

he had some natty black ones on. Much better than the tan ones I'm used to seeing...
Can't help but think a little "queer eye" wouldn't go astray for our straight guy P.

Yes, the 14th, my DQ hole. Off the tee hit snap hook into tree and I thought it went close to oob. So hit a snappier hook provisional into a closer tree.
Hit my provisional again then moved onto where I thought my first had gone out. Find a bridgestone No.4 (the 4 in red) and think, great luck. Put that one on the green in good position. Then I head over to help alo look for his drive. In the end he heads back to the tee to re-tee. While alo heads back we call the group behind through. They had a little break to the group behind them so I thought this would keep things moving along.
Anyway, we eventually get to the green. My mate is having a shocker this hole and takes several to get on the green. In the meantime I have marked my ball. Once he's on the green I go to replace my ball, putting the make mark (the e6 marking) face down when I notice it says - B330 S. The group behind us are now walking up to their balls - every drive for me so far has been a hook into the left trees. I don't want to hold things up any more as I'm not scoring well so I call it.
Pissed off on the next hole (15th par 3) and hit 8 iron to about 4 mtrs and 4 putt. Then proceed to drive round the corner on the 16th, into the fairway bunkers on 17 (left fairway edge I'll take it) and the edge of the right rough on 18, 130mtrs from the green. Go figure.
I thought my driving was bad this round. But my putting was just a bit off you could say. I one putted holes 10, 16, 18 and 6 and finished with 39 putts for the round . That's an average of 2.5 putts/hole for the other 14 holes And my first round since changing my belly back to a short putter. I was averaging 34 with the belly.
I finished 90(ish with the dq) which I'm kind of surprised with considering the putting stats. Other significant stats, 1/14 fir, 5 gir. Still trying to work out how I shot 90 with those stats

How is my B330-S going anyway? I'd played more than a round with it and collected the powerlines on the 14th when we all lost sight of it! You should keep playing with it and do a story on the Bridgey's durability.... and luck!

IT was a fun today.
Thanks to ken and dion. You hit a few big drives and a few nice gay drives, and nice irons. It was great to watch ken work the ball even if it was a bad round for him.
My day was doom when I had a tap in bird on 10 our first. then hurt my wrist on 18 hitting a funkie drive. after that I missed every fairway (well the 4 when I hit driver).
The 8 on the 2 (par 3 ) killed my day-lost ball bit of sand and a three putt. I played all the par 3's bad which hurts.

The tan ones make one appearance and you never hear the end of it.
And as for the black socks (and accompanying black boots) in the clubhouse, I only wore those because they are the only shoes I had with me besides golf shoes, due to the previous evenings festivities. I know how silly they looked, but let's face it, did it really look out of place in Toowoomba?

Oh, Moe. You should have come up today. You could have played your matchplay with Azza. We didn't see him, but he seems to have left his name written on several of our greens today

Thanks for the round guys. Had a good time out.
I was surprised that i wasn't feeling seedy. I was surprisingly good considering i cracked my first beer at 4:30 on satdee arvo and didn't stop until 1:30am sunday. I think i was suffering from tiredness and a zero level care factor.
I had 101 but i wasn't actually playing that badly. Copped a lot of right hand bender kicks off fairways into trees. Never in my life have i been raped by so many trees... no stance.... and they were prickly bloody trees too.
Putter was on and off... think i need to take some more time over the short ones.
Was good to actually get to play a round of golf with you AP. I think that is the first round????
Thanks for organising the game for us Dean.
Oh and i felt about 12 years old when i had to ring mum and dad to come and pick pete and i up from the golf course.

I'm pretty sure it was, which is why I requested it. Now you'll be requesting to play with me everytime.
