My finest hour...I finally conquered this game

[Fishman Dan]

Don't read too much into the "What did you shoot" title. It's really only a sub-forum to keep Grunt busy.

And yes, he plays comps.

[Fishman Dan]

Fish was correct, you're such a wanker Mike !

[poidda]

I can see why Grunt cant make any friends in NSW now!

[Webster]

scarfie,

Have a scroll down the list of threads in the "What did you shoot this week" forum. Aside from this dubious chest puffing thread of yours, the rest of the threads stick to the standard format, save for Johnny Canucks official, verifiable win in the Kennedy Bay Club Championships (well done JC) and agave's first career ace (in a comp, fully verifyable - well done agave). Yet you are blurting about a round which has no credibility? Are you serious?

Just a further question for you about your supposedly par round - how many other people were playing in the group? Or were you possibly playing by yourself as suggested in post # 6 of this thread?

Don't start that Poidda - I'll happily play with Grunt anytime... in a comp, of course.

See that's the problem, he doesn't need playing partners, he wants companions!

[Fishman Dan]

How do we know that this isn't all reverse psychology? Every time something like this happens, the same few people get branded as the sh!t stirrers. The boot is on the other foot now, why don't people think of it that way?

How do we know that Scarfie (all 200 posts of him) hasn't turned up to cause trouble? How do we know that he hasn't deliberately posted this topic to bait someone? Surely he knew that Jack would bite?

Has anyone met this bloke? I doubt it - he plays solo, and never in comps? How can we tell this isn't some fake account by a vengeful Queenslander?

You've been had, Jack. I bet you feel cheap knowing that now. Typical OzGolf xenophobia.

[mikezone13]

Oh yeah...i forgot..shinier is better....Fish was correct, you're such a wanker Mike !

Cheers, now can you give me my rubber gloves back?

And I thought we were mates fishy

[Webster]

jeezuz Fishguts, next you will accuse me of being scarfie too and that I'm just talking to myself?

[PeteyD]

You been sniffing glue fish fingers?

[Fishman Dan]

You been sniffing glue fish fingers?

That's just the friggin' reaction I'm talking about. Why does someone who thinks against the common process at this place get branded 'off his head'?

Should be auslander.net/forums.

...but social round scores have nil cred....even if it did actually happen.

Gotta say I agree with the old boy on this one. I am sure that this is a personally important milestone for Scarfie however, and i congratulate you as it is a great achievement, however a social round cannot be compared against a comp round.

In most (no not all) comp rounds you have the certainty of an independent umpire -your partners. No wiggle room, no mental pressure, not the same. But an achievement all the same.

[PeteyD]

Common process? You are making some wild allegations.

Scarfie has played in 1 OzGolf day, and is just a young guy excited about his golf. His views differ from Jacks and there has been a robust debate, which is kinda one of the points of forums anyway.

Well your wrong, I have played with a couple of Ozgolf boys at Kooralbyn last week, and have bought and sold off heaps off you blokes. I'm insulted that you would accuse me off joining up to cause trouble. I joined in September last year and have been visiting the site for much longer than that. I had about 200 posts before starting this topic.

To even think that I'm a fake account just shows how wacked your thinking is.

BTW I didn't know about Jack...I didn't get a couple of PMs about him until well into this topic. Seems like his reputation is worse than mine.

As no golfer69 I'm not a member at surfers, but I would be if not for waiting lists etc. I'm a mega member at colonial.

Whats wrong with that. That is the only reason Jack drops in occasionaly.

Jacks PMS is permanent

You just lost all credibility! (My mega member brother )

[Webster]

so scarfie, were you playing alone or not?

[scarfie1]

Sure was. As I do most of the time...I'm not going to deny it.

It's funny how everyone says social golf has no cred....I've never met a bunch of blokes that were so disbelieving of others scores. I thought it was the player that had the cred or not, not the form of the game, and I would've thought I'd been here long enough to have a little cred.

Anyway..I'll leave you guys to argue it out. I'm off to actually play golf, you should try it sometime.

[Flowergirl]

All I can say is that there must be a lot of you guys that must cheat if they think they can get away with it. That's why you are questioning Scarfie's honesty. So are you they sort of guys that use the foot wedge when your playing partners aren't watching??? What ever happened to honesty, trust and integrity???
I am ashamed of you boys.

[terryand]

I know it will be a tuff job, but I will put my hand up to be the one to introduce 69'er and scarfie1 at the Champs

Terry.

[Jim]

Thanks Pete, yeah I'm not usually a spastic putter like I was on thursday. Too much pressure of performing in front of you guys, the nerves got to me

That's the difference between playing in a comp or not - 15 shots. Also reminds me of the amount of blokes who shoot great scores whilst playing matchplay - who cares. Experience suggests the moment you start boasting you have the game licked is just before you take a ginormous tumble. Just ask AndyA.

You guys really want to do something about Jack - he is quite a troublemaker.

[terryand]

Oh look who got a pm from his mate, welcome back stranger

Terry.

[Jim]

You're all my mates on here Tez.

Where have the smilies gone?

[peter_rs]

In all honesty - what's wrong with a little niggle? It's not like he called 100% of OzGolfers a bunch of 'self-pleasurers'.

Who did that.....

Calm down Flowergirl. No need to get those knickers in a twist. We are just establishing the circumstances as they apply to scarfies "par" round. Interesting that it took 9 pages for him to come clean on the very important fact that he was playing alone.

But enough of this bickering. It's a lovely day outside and I'm off for a hit myself soon. There is a little 5900m course not far from here which should be easy to get on as its not comp day. I'm feeling confident, even though I will be playing alone. I think I can post a 64 or maybe a 65 today. Now would that be threadworthy?

PS. I have no idea who Jim is.
