The battle of the Ginge! Peter_rs vs Kpac - 16/03/08 - Nudgee South

[shazza_rs]

Okay so the battle of the ginge is well upon us! I thought they were a dying breed.

Let the sledge begin!!

[markTHEblake]

The great thing about this match is that half the ginger tossers are eliminated after round 1.

Regardless I am backing the gold coast kid. They breed em tougher down here.

Can I get $10 bucks on kpac being the closest to the colour of the setting sun?

bit romantic

[kpac]

so basically what you are saying kpac is that you can't close out a match and when you get close to it you lose????

Thats right, tried the close approach last yeah - wasn't my bag - i'll stick to closing them out early this year

[AndyP]

It helps if you don't get off to 3 down or 4 down starts.

you still here?

[AndyP]

We're in the same group. Get used to it.

[kpac]

you are bringing the driver along this time tho aren't you rs?

[peter_rs]

I will tell you on the second hole. I have picked up something nasty from Vegas and its not pretty with the short stuff so it may be wise to avoid short irons

On the other hand if I hit driver I could be that far of line

How is the Exotic going?

[kpac]

How is the Exotic going?

good enough..... not really a necessary club around that course - may've been playing 69'r too much realised the wisdom in the bunt. Driver may not be needed.

[Jarro]

You'll need driver for 17 for sure

[peter_rs]

kpac have you played the south of the Back... there are some long holes that are always into wind.

(I'm leaving the obvious innuendo alone for a change! )

Glad to be rid of the shanks. Good luck with them. I managed to keep my scores under the tonne in the couple of months I had them.

Well done Dion, the old hilary swanks can really start to destroy your confidence over time. I wonder who will be the next poor bastard on Oz golf to get the curse

Rid of the shanks?? When did this happen? I sense a whole lot of positive thinking going on here.

Eags, what are you doing mentioning shanks only a couple of weeks before mammoth battle at Barny?!? I would hate for them to get back in your head. Actually, have you ever completely recovered, or do you slip one in every now and then!

Mate, I haven't even looked like having one for the last 20 rounds, sounds to me like you are a bit worried

[markTHEblake]

Not me, though I have lots of them when I practice, not unusual to shank the first 3 or 4.

The only shank i can remember on a golf course was at least 15 years ago lol:

[Jarro]

If the last time you had one was 15 years ago Blakey, then you're more than overdue

[Jarro]

Somebody going to give us a wrapup of this match or what ?

[AndyP]

I'll wait for one of the players to report first.

[peter_rs]

Ok Jarro kpac must still be on the road.

The ginger assassin lives another day. He has become a bunter very sad.

I couldn't start any better birdie, birdie. Missed a short putt on 4 for par to go 2 up. In stupid moment kicked my putter..... in the process bending the shaft. Walking done the next shazza convinced me it was not bent.... but I was not a believer and started missing all kinds of putts and lost track of the match. kpac wins the next 4 (with a couple of ties). I went out in 19 pts with 13 putts in 5 holes, 2 down at the turn. kpac out in 22.

kpac wins the next two with pars. I decided to trust the putter in whatever state it was and win I click my swing into gear and win the next 2. Then the first mayor swing fault, I blocked it straight right when I was aiming for a draw into the wind.... result water & kpac win. The last draw I stirred kpac about bunting and he went with driver on the short 15... he smoked it. kpac was about 40m short on line with the green, my drive is pin high right of the bunkers. kpac 3 putts to my 2.

2 down on 16 tee. I pull the tee shot and short side myself kpac hits the green. my ball sits on the down slope of back side of the bunker. I cann't hold the green with my next and chip back on and tap in for a 4. kpac closes the door with a 2 putt.

Sad to lose the match but happy to lose shooting under my hcp and didn't throw it away completely.

Welcome to 12 or 13 kpac.

Too much time spent with that 69er prick, if you ask me.

what did you putt with ?

[TS]

If you kick the putter and bent the shaft, you are not allow to use that putter during the match anymore.

[shazza_rs]

TS and 3oneday... if you bothered to read the whole post.... i convinced him that it wasn't bent.... which it wasn't.... it was all in his head.
