Myself and Simmb entered the pairs of this and lost in the 4th round. Since that match in Feb our opponents have been dropped 13 shots between them.

Check out any number of other 'high worth' (mainly Dubai trip) competitions over the last couple of years - and the Trilby.
You'll find a couple of names featuring quite often!

strange a certain player was off 13 when he won a TT event 3 years ago but is now off 17!

Scoring is pretty poor. Only one guy under par off full handicap. Forest of Arden isn't that tough, given the thinly veiled banditry suggestions I'd have expected to see some really good scoring.

I would back tom Muldoon to walk away with the title this year! Shame I wasn't allowed to defend but playing tom off 17 and giving him 11 shots I would struggle as it's hard to beat him after he was cut to 11 in trilby last year!
Id put my money on the short game wizard.
7 pars and 1 blob off 17 for 36 points, your havin' a larf....
If he was off 11 last year how can he be off 17 now? That would equate to 60 x 0.1 rounds?

Ah right - the yearly hunt for glory from the usual suspects whose handicaps always seem to increase.
Thats why its not worth entering these sort of comps because you cant trust the majority of their handicaps.

Not sure about that, I think it doesn't matter what comps you play there are always people who play consistently well when it matters, guess it's there mindset , I'd still back him to win in Dubai by a few, he's a likeable guy too.

So in the TT he is 11 and other he is 17 ??
Im guessing these people dont put their scores from these comps into their clubs so they can have a fair reflected handicap
Dodgy handicaps - wont go near those tournaments.
Will stick to affiliated Pro Ams
