My group was the 1st down the 18th so we were tasked to put the marker out on the fairway to start it off, we had to leave it behind for the next group to do :rofl:

Next years event may be by invitatation only, and past winners are not guaranteed a place.

We were expecting someone to carry the first fairway bunker, it was only 300 yards.
West Hill advised us to use this hole, but probably didn't realise the average forum driving distance. Did anyone drive the bunker ?

That sounds really painful Rob. Have you got medical insurance ?Nope. Had a 25lb 8oz Mirror Carp out this morning......bloody expensive though. I snapped the tip off of one of my rods

I pegged on up after we had finished and stuck it in there. Was playing a soft cut at the centre of bunker that didn't!

I was level with the bunker in three.
My tee shot was officially measured at 117 yards by one of my partners.:angry:Next years event may be by invitatation only, and past winners are not guaranteed a place.

Would have been good for longest drive after the first group (assuming it was down the middle!, defending champ opened things up in style!) but then Greg (GB72) smoked one 120 in our group.

How have you managed to find those extra yards off the tee since we last played together?

The bunker was right on my landing distance
so I decided to hit a really crap shot about 180yds into the heather on the right instead :clap:Pieman hit his driver about 250ft into the air and still knocked it past me :angry:

I'd moved it onto 277yds according to my Skycaddie... Jimbob will know how much he moved it on from mine....

I posted a brief appreciation under another thread last night when having just got home; it had been a long day.
After nearly 24 hours I feel that my previous comment was a little inadequate and would, therefore, like to more fully thank Rick & Richard for their fantastic organisation of one of the most memorable days golfing I have ever had.
Appreciation too for the ladies who did such a wonderful job; I barely noticed parting with the cash and I trust that whoever won the bottle of Champers has a suitable opportunity to enjoy it.
West Hill GC; what a venue and what an effort on their part handing over their course for most of the day with a very significant reduction in their normal rate.
My partners SaintHacker (Paul), Sawtooth (Sean) & Rob2 (Rob) were not only great company but also amazingly patient to put up with me, a hobbling old wreck. Our team picture does look like a pretty impressive defensive wall.
But, (arthritis etc; permitting) I will return, if only to again support such a worthwhile cause. Besides the missus only lets me go if it is for charity.

Indeed he is, cracking company the night before and anyone who can still smile after a score like that deserves nothing but encouragement. Look forward to seeing you at the next one adiemel.
My thanks to adiemel, Fish, Hobbit, Kraxx68, Khamelion and viscount17 who came to the curry Sunday night, a very good time was had by all, except possibly Kraxx68 when he eventually emerged from the toilet; go on, tell us what you were really thinking
Thanks to swanny32, Davey & therod for their company during the day, my thanks and appreciation to richart & rickg for their efforts in giving us all a great day whilst raising a lot of money for a very worthy cause and thanks to all at GM for their support, both on the day and for the forum in general. Oh, and sorry about the balls rickg.........

Cheers Steve nice of you to think I hit it straight. Well it was straight left into the trees, kicked in further and I had to play out left handed. I will teach you the shot one day.

Yup the earlier mentioned 287 sounds about right although I don't have a laser thingy. Was about 10 yards short of the bunker hitting a 7 iron in. Still ended up with a quid in the bucket after missing a four footer for par ...
