After 36 holes together he may not be 'the' mate any longer.Corrected for you....
Just back after a full week in 1066 country and the Sussex coast where I enjoyed glorious sunshine on the beaches all week EXCEPT the Friday when attending the Cooden Beach meet!
Huge thanks to Smiffy for a well organised day which ran like a well oiled machine, unlike my swing and game which resembled a clip from Paint Your Wagon as the wheels continued to fall off
Great to meet some well known and some new names from the forum and to meet up with some old faces too. I don't know why but I was expecting a links course being right on the coast but it was more than a testing parkland course for the kind of day I was having and by all accounts quite a few more going by the overall lost ball count!
My thanks to Leftie, a very good solid player & Sawtooth who can back up his forum drive distances, I clocked most of them over 300yds with a great drive at 324yds, both were excellent company in the morning and Rick who I have wanted to play alongside for a while but was a shame I didn't turn up & Jimboo who played some excellent irons and is Cat1 material in waiting, again both excellent company in the afternoon.
I'm sorry I can't remember everyone's names in the photos so please feel free to copy them and place names underneath.
Smiffy gets us underway with traditional fag in hand.
Everyone else is warming up
The playing groups, I think 1 or 2 groups sneaked off whilst I went to put my shoes on so, apologies and tuff titty
The wildlife, especially the Foxes were very tame and approached you at the tee and rummaged in your unattended bag looking for food! The younger of the 2 had a sweet tooth and shared my Mars Bar
Murph & Paul emerge looking for their balls
Nope, that's not yours Murph, but, your getting warmer
Found it!
Now, what's the local rule, bummer, its OOB so of he runs back to where he played last, must have a decent card
Very tidy course with some well protected greens.
A thoroughly enjoyable day irrelevant of the golf (loose term) I played and an excellent week on the coast where Max had his first experience of the beach & sea :thup:

It was worth going back, as I got up and down from 116 yards for a five for two.
I wasn't on a score though!

It went to the left tight against the trees/bushes so the provisional that went right of the green wasn't needed

Very good Robin, I still made a 5 for 2.... :ears: I was going to spare your blushes on the par 3 12th where your second shot into the green was further away than your tee shot.......and where Murph who was standing 30 yards behind you had to duck to avoid being hit...... Grab a coffee while I download the iPhone!!! :swing:
No problem matey, I can laugh at it, shanked the tee shot (not 2nd shot) into a fence to the front right by the walkway and rebounded behind us all where Murph was sneaking around in the bushes. Brand new ball on that tee totally shagged with a single blow, you really don't get your moneys worth nowadays do you :rofl:
