VIC Champs predictions and goals thread

[LeftyHoges]

OK, I lied, one more thread about the champs!

Put em in here boys and girls. What will happen? What do you want to happen?

Please note this is not about the Friday match, we have a thread for that sledging already.

My predictions:

DC to fall at the last hurdle to AndyP and miss out on yet another champs title.
NAGA to be not from VIC.

My goals:
150 points for 5 days golf.
Max of 2 double bogies or worse.
Don't snap any wedges.

[AndyP]

Did you tank on Saturday?

[Bruce]

Tanking is such an ugly word. This was score management as part of the long term of goal accomplishment.

[PeteyD]

Did you get the first round pick?

[peter_rs]

Thursday -as expected
Friday-big match play win and a half in the 4ball... Surprise fireball pick (courty must of had a feeling) 2.5 Pts of the teams 5.5
Sat- scrappy 35 Pts with more signs of improvement... I told shazza I could maybe go a couple better
Sun-solid with luck 42 Pts, played well under game book preasure.
Monday... Crashing to earth maybe

Takes to shazza and Paige last night was the only bad night of the trip. Thanks to flower girl for the bed

Out to a thank you dinner.

[PeteyD]

go the reds

You will burn in hell .... er keep.

[Marto65]

This thread is a joke.

I will be happy if I wake up Tuesday morning, without any stupid tattoos, STD's or black eyes.

Ok ... only 2 of those are serious ...

One day left mate. Did you make it through last night unscarred?

[WBennett]

Twenty eight points will be handy today.

[kev]

I will score more points on Monday than any of the previous 4 days.

Fail.

I thought I had the game conquered after yesterdays effort...

[Marto65]

Work on that chip and run shot Kevmeister.

[kev]

Work on that chip and run shot Kevmeister.

Yeah.

[andigold]

I set no goals and made no predictions and yet I still managed to not meet them

[Marto65]

And yet you won the Table Tennis?

[Lucasto23]

Goals considered achieved, no one went to bed drunk after me except the baby sitters on Friday and I was sloshed every night and broke the 100

[Iain]

I'll be stoked if I average 30 points a round. Not get too blind on either of the nights.

Success!!

Iain to beat Benno 3 and 2.

Everything else is insignificant.

Sorry Dotty.

[andigold]

And yet you won the Table Tennis?

Yeah, I'm an athlete

Yay!!!!! no tattoo, no black eye..... waiting on the doctors results for the other, damn the spa's upstairs.

Given Popper's current ailments, prediction that he'll smash me in our match on Friday.

I like predicting stuff like that because I usually get it wrong.
...

Not this time bloke, 100% correct

Hahahah... I just given the 'neighbour' a truck load of cash to bet on you. Hedging my bets. I win, I drink for free... I lose.... Well I still drink for free.

I hate doing goals and the such for things like this. As Courty has shown, they become a bit of a burden. Everyone has gotten on the CLUB 150 train. 150 points seems like it is achieveable, if you hit the ball ok, and the weather holds out. Otherwise... well it could be anything. Good luck with the mission.

Popper's goals for the Vic Champs
# One birdie everyday. Happy with more.
# Break my handicap one round, somewhere. Do that I will be stoked.
# Not be the NAGA

Seriously though..... I don't know if you all quite realise how excited I am to be playing some top course. I have a very limited golf history. Sure there is some good tracks up here..But not the class of down there. It is going to be fun. Not to mention some of the suprises that are instore for everyone. Will really add to the event.

The doctor just told me no golf for 2 weeks, hahahaha... Funny **** he is ( i think he is serious). See how is all works out. I will come down no matter what. I will hit some balls/play saturday and see how I pull up. That will give me a better indication of how I am going to go.

No birdie at St Andrews Beach.... DAMN!!!!
Wasn't the NAGA..... YAY!
Had one good round..... YAY!

Rounds were the following

Kingswood: 28pts
Southern: 32pts
St Andrews Beach: 26pts ( finished 1,1, wipe wipe, after being 5 points after 5 holes)
Moonah Legends: 39pts
Spring Valley: 26pts

Not unhappy with how I played considering the leadd up. The rib was fine by Saturday, troubled me a little sleeping and the calf held up. Tongue is mighty sore today..... no idea why

[AndyP]

I predict that I may have to drink the same make of beer more than once.

Two Crowns at Spring Valley and two Red Duck Ambers at the hotel were the double ups, but I had 13 different beers over the weekend. Thanks for the help, andigold.

As for the run, 18:40 was no chance after a long Friday and limited sleep. 19:32 is more than respectable while running under the influence.

[Courty]

Don't let the facts get in the way of a good story, Favourite!For me, I'll be rolling out the ol' faithful 30pt per round average again (150pts for the trip). Anything less & I'll be living up to past form.

And true to form, I fell short again. I could have easily made it if I could have worked out the greens a bit better this time round.

Did miss out?? What did you have? I had 151, and stunk it up!!!!

Surely you went close

[Monsta]

It will be an experience for you monsta then ozgolf match play is never good

You were right with this Pete, it wasnt a good experience for me

But it was fun..

144. A perfect pyramid of poo: 26, 29, 34, 29, 26. However, I'm happy that I broke 80 at St. Andrew's Beach, and for the first time ever was tied for a placing in the lead group after Saturday.

Blah, blah, blah...

What did you have Sunday?

What did you have when it mattered, on Friday?

Exactly.

[Marto65]

It's called the Champs. Friday wasnt even a comp round,

It mattered Saturday / Sunday.

Got you by 2. Scratch.

Again.

Exactly.
