Cheap round at Bearwood Lakes this coming Monday (21st)

[Smiffy]

Playing at Bearwood Lakes on Monday afternoon, as a warm up for the forthcoming Trilby Tour game on 12th July.
Region3 (Gary) is joining me along with a mate of mine (Paul) who is a member there.
Paul can sign 3 players in at guest rate which is £40.00 per person, terrific value to play this fantastic course.
We are teeing off at 2.30 and have a space free.
First come, first served

Will you be wearing the aforementioned titfers?

Will you be wearing the aforementioned titfers?

Nope.
Get them issued to us on the day

 

[Imurg]

If only I didn't have to be back home by 6 I'd bite your hand off.

Grrrr. I'll get there one day.

Yes please Smiffy

What time are you planning on getting to the club?

 

[Smiffy]

Yes please Smiffy

What time are you planning on getting to the club?

I'm planning on meeting up with Gary (Region3) about 1.30 so that we can have a quick bite to eat before we tee off.
What's your "proper" name and what handicap are you off?

Anthony and I play off 11. I will aim to get there around the same time - not very far for me to travel

Hi Rob - played today and the course was really good - greens are now as they should be - first time this year that I was getting nervous on most putts, just the way it shold be - like my 4 put on 14! Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow.
Cheers
Paul

Looking forward to it (as always) Paul.
Will be there about 1.30 mate.
And how could you 4 putt the 14th? One of the easiest greens on the course....

Welcome to the site by the way

Hi Rob
It ain't easy when the pin is front middle and I was back middle, there are two valleys to cross - I putted off the front - the ball was really rolling and slopes were coming into play much more than they have - puts were often breaking 90 degrees as they slowed! If you are slightly in thewrong place now you need to get speed and direction ight, which mkes going for a lag very difficult!

Won the second round of the singles - we both didn't play very well, I was getting 9 shots but tended to loose the shot holes and win the others! 1 up on 18, with a shot and stuck it out-of bounds onto the Bearwood Road - a fantastic high slice! Hence another trip down one - he stuck his drive in the woods and had to chip out but a good chip left him a tricky 10 footer from above the hole - he missed. I had 75 yards to go after a big drive but left a really tricky put and then a Denis Wise with break for the win, which I holed - very relieved!! Great fun round even though form was still poor! Club champs next weekend so looking forward to my last attempt for any form tomorrow.
Cheers
Paul

Hi Paul,
I'm really looking forward to the game tomorrow after everything Smiffy's said and what I've read on t'internet.

Hoping to pick up some good tips about the course for the comp there next month.

Sounds like the greens are tricky
Gary

 

[PNWokingham]

Hi Gary
Looking forward to seeing you there tomorrow. One of the main defences are the greens, which are usually quick, although this year they have been slower probably due to some snow/frost damage. If you are playing well you can score well, there are no tricks, but you need to put yourself in the right positions on the greens if they are speedy - I hope they are stil good tomorrow.
Cheers
Paul

 

[TXL]

Paul, Sounds like your greens have just come good in the same way ours did a couple of weeks ago. I think the green keepers deliberately left them long later this year due to the hard winter. Certainly paid off as ours are both true and quick now.

I look forward to tomorrow.

 

[Smiffy]

You're gonna have a great time lads.
Weather forecast is good, should be a cracking day for it.
Paul, are we playing for our normal £50.00 front 9, £50.00 back 9 and £50.00 the match mate and £50.00 birdies or shall we ease off for £25.00 to make it a little easier on the new lads?

At least it will be cheaper than the round I had at Sunningdale

 

[PNWokingham]

Rob - you can choose the format, by all means let's keep things cheap!
See you all later
Cheers

Individual Stableford, £5.00 in the pot, winner takes all I guess....who do you want the cheque made payable to

 

[TXL]

Many thanks for the invite Rob and also to Paul for hosting us. Many thanks to Gary, Rob & Paul for your company on the course, I thoroughly enjoyed the golf and the course.

I look forward to meeting up again in the near future for another eventful round where maybe all of us can manage to get at least one birdie

Smiffy got a birdie?
Did he hole a 4 iron or something ?
