4BBB Burgham Park, NE Area, 24th Sept

Good man Martyn :thup:. It's the best way to cure a hangover.

I should add, coffee and a bacon buttie is in with the fee :whoo:. What more could a golfer wish for.
 
A stunning victory for team Tyrion in the open at Burgham today with a mighty net 63 (par 72) :whoo:A funny format I haven't played in before, 4BBB strokeplay so every shot counted, and some confusion reigned for a while with the scorecards :D
Am I glad I decided to get out of bed early this morning, lovely, looong course in great condition and top company, plus a win to boot ;)
Splash and his driver, insane, I'll never tire of seeing those booming draws lol.
 
Many thanks to Lord Tyrion for organising this - well done to the victors, you played very solidly. The clue should have come on the front nine when Paul and I were having to hole 20 footers to keep in sight.
A course I had never heard of before but would gladly go back to - long, but wide, and in lovely condition.
Thanks guys, well done - what was the prize?
Odd that LT was the overall scorer for the comp....
 
Cracking stuff today and really good company, as it usually is with forum get togethers. Splashtryagain and Scotty Cameron put in a very respectable score, it was lads, I collated the scores, but Beezerk and myself smashed it out of the park today (okay so that is a bit dramatic but allow me a little licence).

We actually dovetailed very well which is the key to pairs golf. Beezerk kindly scored well on the longer holes where I struggle. He particularly helped on the last 6-7 holes where unbeknownst to him my back started to spasm!

All in all, a smashing day and another good advert for forum gatherings, even small ones. I also get to spend the winnings, golf vouchers, on golf gear without having to explain or justify to my wife 😁 for once.

Tbc but approx £75 each in golf vouchers will not be far out. Very happy😁🍻.

No card was coming in lower than our score, not one that didn't have "an error" anyway😂.
 
Well done, lads, 63 is a cracking score. Wish I could have been there but am currently languishing in the Lake District, sans clubs. Please let me know when you're arranging anything else, Lord T, eager to play your course for the first time.
 
Well done to Neil and Martyn on your win, you both gelled well together. Also thanks to Andy for putting up with my woeful performance, not used to playing off the whites at Burgham, it makes it a lot, lot harder than the yellows which I was used to.

Next time a game is arranged let me know, it's always worth the drive up the road to play a really good course in such condition.
 
It would be a pleasure to host everyone, and more, again. If we arrange it just between ourselves, ie not via an Open, then we will most definitely be playing off the yellows. Swingit and Beezerk can smash the ball out of site, quality second shots, not just off the tee, but for the rest of us the yellows make it a better, more varied and more enjoyable course.
