Alright Dave, Yes the weather was great mate though it was a bit cool when we teed off but by the 8th tee the sweater had to come off.

Cracking day all round except my putting!! Grrrrr

Cheers for organising a top day Robin and congrats to Wrighty for winning !!!

Love BD, one of my faves and a true hidden gem. Course was superb but unfortunately my putting was not.

I'm still waiting to see photos of Si's cardi to see if I need to "up my game" :rofl:

Great day, can't believe I've never heard of the course until I met Robin (Fish). Definitely will be playing it again. Never played on such big greens. Enjoyed meeting up with a few old faces and new ones, who I had the pleasure of going around with, Stu and Andy. Glad Dick made it all the way round this time, in far better climes. Looking forward to giving the X Hot an outing on Thursday evening. Hope your ok for a week Friday Dick at your place.

Finally, well done Robin on organising a fantastic venue, with friendly bar staff and lovely grub.

I was played a hybrid for safety and knobbed it straight in. Couldn't even be bothered to look for it.

Thanks to Robin for organising a cracking day.

Thanks to Mal (Sweaty), Glyn and Will for the company. Just a shame my golf wasn't up to the course and FC's standards. I finished dead last, I had 9 going out and 9 coming back and 8 blobs. Just can't get it away off the tee.

I won a nice instructional DvD, I best get it on tomorrow to try and help my self out

You're not wrong mate, and to be fair his 3rd shot into 18 was a cracker :smirk:

Timgolfy - Were you playing a Srixon 2? If so, I found it whilst I was in the same bundu - mail me your address and I'll send it on.

I did make a 5 from there at least.:thup:

Top, top course - the 2nd best parkland course Ive played, narrowly behind St. Mellion. Unbelievably fast/roller coaster greens. Rookie error by me on the 9th tee, saying I haven't had a 3 putt so far. Cue 3 x 3 putts in the next 3 holes and 5 overall.

I missed a 2 1/2 foot putt for Birdie on SI 1, but played quite well tee to green. You could see someone having 50 putts on them greens, if they were struggling with the flatstick - honestly.

Thanks to my FC's, great score Steve. Great drive Mark (shame junior pipped you for longest drive, by taking scissors to the rough to turn it into fairway), great bunker shot Paul. Nice to also meet a few new faces (B.I.M.), and Badger (you ain't seen me - right)

Good post game ceremony by Robin - if we can get this next year on a bank holiday - I'll be there like a shot.

BTW I heard StuC whispering to his FC's at the back of the 18th - I got my DMD out to see the yardage between him and me and he can still be heard 181 yards away (for future reference) - I was still on the 17th BTW.

Fishy, thanks for organising the day it was great, a real gem of a track. Thanks to Wrighty and Metal Mickie for putting up with me for 18 holes 2 cracking fellas

Dont forget, I had to put up with you too.....especially all the talk about how great Liverpool are this season

If it had 2 purple dots either side of the number then it was mine

Sounds like it was a great day, next time I will have to remember not to arrange a club match on the same date.

 

[glynntaylor]

Gents,

Many thanks for a top day. One of the best golfing experiences I've currently played with a great bunch of lads.

Heres to many more meets!

 

[Qwerty]

Qwerty, you missed a cracker. the course was in cracking nick and the greens were lightening quick with 3&4 putts everywhere!!.

Yep, I've been a bit grumpy today Stu knowing what I was missing out on. Boilers in fleetwood can't really compare to a game at beau desert in the sun

Those greens are nuts aren't they. Land in the wrong spot and you've no chance of a 2 putt.
