A challange / some bragging rights /a good cause

Ah yes, I think I was confusing you with Fat Tiger who is a member at Brough.

If you fancy a knock sometime drop me a line, your place or mine is fine. We are still on winter tee's until next month and on main greens now weather permitting. The course is generally a good test of golf and was in excellent condition last year, the only greens I played on that came close last summer were at Hillside!

Sounds good to me. Let me know when you are free and we can go from there.
 
Just awaiting confirmation of a cut from last weekend, should take me to mid 15's if anyone wants to take me on. Pity I just missed Airlie Andy as we are local and could have doubled it up with a match sometime.

I don't mind losing double for such a good cause if you want to go up against me as well?

OK, and I agree that the cause is so worthwhile I will double up if I lose out to Rosecott whether or not he wants to make it a 3 way challenge - will post my new handicap as the starting point at the weekend.

Rosecott is up for a 3-way challenge.
 
And all taken in good fooling, by you Dan.

It takes a special man to keep smiling, whilst wearing a flat cap, whilst trotting over to the OOB practice gound to retrieve his ball, whilst on the first hole, whilst in front of a few forummers,whilst only having 6 points on the front 9.

A special talent. :)
I didn't go over and get it. I was too ashamed. That 6 points was the lowlight of my golfing career so far. I haven't got much better since TBH. I seem to have left my swing on the practise range at West Lancs....
 
If your 26.7 why do you want to give someone a minimum 6 point start? Surely your looking for someone no less than 23/24 :whistle:

Reason being I expect I'm actually playing off of 22/23 rather than 27 (though my official is 26.7). I expect my handicap to drop fairly sharply soon and then level out around the 20 mark.

That and I like a challenge and it's for a good cause anyway so what the heck if I lose right :)
 
One for the mods.

Is there a way of setting something up for those participating to record any progress with handicap movement (up or down) so that we can watch the excitement mount?

Along with your ball then. :)

With your attitude, I have no doubt you'll come good. I'll also be well happy for you. :thup:
 
Your a top man!

BTW, I'm also now on the h/cap committee, but had no input on this one, as they were unanimous in me dropping a full shot.

It may be very interesting when it comes to Podgster v Scousers challenge. :)



Congrats on the cut

As to that comment I shall reply to your face on Sunday


Are you a cat 1 now... :whistle:
