Chart Hills; thanks once again to Sandy & Smiffy for organising the golf day at Chart Hills today.
I had a very enjoyable, albeit challenging day's golf.
The course was in excellent condition and well worth a visit.
Great club and great people!
Dhan
 
Many, many thanks to Sandy (and Smiffy I suppose) for yet another great Forum meet.

Super course which I thought was playing tough today but loved the greens :)

As always great company, this time with Dhan, Chrisd, and Jimboo and it was good to meet up with many "old" friends and put faces to names that I hadn't met before.

Congrats to Ray for a splendid 38 points. Steady as a rock as usual.

Rich, my share of the 2's money will be winging it's way shortly to the H4H fund.
 
Yes, thoroughly enjoyed today Dhan, Leftie and James were great company and, like Leftie, my 2's money will likely be with H for H on the day.

Thanks Sandy and Smiffy for the hard work that arranges these meets and congrats to the prize winners.
 
Today was great, tough conditions with the wind but course was in great condition even after some heavy rain. Company was great, thanks to Si Wookie, LIG and Charlie. If I could only sink a put from 6 foot I might have beaten 38 points.
 
Yep another good day out - thanks for organising Sandy and Smiffy and playing partners for the usual good company.

That wind was tough today and made a few holes seem very long. Thought the course in general was testing but fair and in good nick.

Good drive home for me as well - comfortably back in time for the start of the football.
 
Yep echo the comments made by others already, was a fantastic day out. Course was in good nick and played well, good company before during and after the gold - couldn't really ask for more than that to be honest.

Thanks to Sandy and Smifty for putting it all together - look forward to playing it again next year.
 
Really enjoyable day, and a big thanks to Sandy and her sidekick for organising it.

Would love to think we could make this a regular event, as Chart Hills is a cracking course. Not easy in the wind, and plenty of bunkers to avoid. I managed to stay out of all but one, and that was GUR.;) Sandy Ed and Lee were great company. Sandy has such a smooth swing, and is a great ball striker. Ed hits the ball miles, and if he played more would be lower than 7 handicap. Lee my guest kept us entertained with his chipping.:whistle:

Good to see some old reprobates again, plus some new faces. Special thank you to Charlie, Roger and Chris for very generously giving their prize money to H4H. Nice touch guys.:thup:

Thanks again Sandy and Rob. Job well done .

PS Chart Hills have very generously donated a fourball to the H4H auction. Having now played the course I can confirm it will be well worth bidding on.
 
So glad you all enjoyed it. I love the course to bits, and as a club it's great - very relaxed and inclusive but at the same time there are a lot of members that take their golf seriously. Perfect really. Does rather sharpen up your bunker play too!!!
Anyway, if we want to do it again I'm sure they'd have us. I'll check on what the rates would be a bit earlier; in late spring or summer and we can set something up.
Thanks to everyone for coming along and making it a good day x
 
Thanks to Sandy for setting it up, finally got to play Chart Hills and it was well worth the wait. Really enjoyed the course it was challenging and interesting, luckily only found 3 bunkers. Thanks to Wookie, LIG and Mashley great company even though I was about 30 yards behind your drives most of the time (so I must have been driving it about 270??:fore::whistle:) and some great ball striking from you guys.

Looking forward to Chart Hills 2014!

Wow, that was worth the drive home!

Really hope to make this event if it happens next year. Gutted to have missed it, but ran out of holiday, so it was this or HFH at West Hill, which won out for obvious reasons.
 
Cracking day! Loved the course and will be back. Had a great time with swanny32 (Chris) and Gary. Cheers fellas!
Despite my fight with the anaconda (which I lost, badly) was a fantastic day and a stunning golf course. Rode my luck on a few holes which buffered what threatened to be a pretty poor score, happy to come in with 30 points. Great company, superb track, good nosh. Thanks to Sandy and Smiffy, looking forward to returning next year and getting revenge on the anaconda!

First off a great big thanks to Sandy for organising this - especially after the March washout - lovely place to visit and play. :thup:
(OK Smiffy gets a mention too...... but only because his jumper this morning was nothing at all like his red Cooden one from a couple of years ago :whistle:) Cheers mate!

Had a great laugh with Mashley, Hooker and Wookie - well, I had to laugh to avoid crying on the front nine, as my game went AWOL! Only 4 provisionals and 4 balls lost today. Thanks for putting up with my army golf, guys.... and for finding my ball - time after time. Looking forward to the next time! :cheers:

Hooker - You still managed to out-score us with your 'short' drives and plaing to handicap points in those conditions is impressive.

I reckon, if there had been a prize for the greatest difference between front 9 and back 9 scores I would have been onto a winner! :fore:
And did anyone else manage to avoid ALL 138 bunkers today?:ears: I won't mention the ponds, lakes or ditches! :whistle:
 
Great day, thanks to everybody for attending.
Course was in great shape, especially the greens.
Didn't play too well, my driving was all over the place, I think I only hit 5 fairways....finished with 28 points.
A hard day at the office.
Thanks to Sandy for organising. I'm bloody knackered this morning. So unfit it's untrue.
:(:(:(
