North West England 2015 OOM

Weird, coz me and Podge were arranging a time for Tuesday, see a few posts up the page.

He wanted to play early and I asked how early and was waiting for his reply.

Looking at the posts I think he is intending on playing twice.

Yes indeed - looking at playing twice if possible. Louise how early are you able to make it - I can do literally straight after first light at say 6.30am????

Later game is going to be at Eccleston Park with Dave and the Wolf

nice one Steve, have you booked a time mate? As late as possible but without rushing would suit me if no preference
 
Louise give us a bell or send us your mobi number. I need to do early to avoid having to take leave. Could play your gaff if needed - whats the earliest you can play?

Steve, I'll try get to your place for 345, is that ok:
 
Tonight seen the Wolfman (Bluewolf) take on Mc Hammer (Davemc) at Eccleston Park so in order to keep myself amused I thought I would help deliver a blow by blow account of the evening - so here we go with some bedtime reading for you all:

1st - Steady start by both off the T with Dave Mc taking the Wolf went OOB - Dave Mc 1 up
2nd - One of the players went: driver to bunker, chip out, 3 wood in to a tree to bounce back just short of the green, chip in for birdie to beat a par on a hole where he doesn't get any extra shots - Dave Mc 2 up
3rd - Nice steady drive which would become the theme of the evening for the Wolf, approach was left short, however recovered with a short chip and 1 putt to win the hole - Dave Mc 1 up
4th - Both with a bogie to half the hole - Dave Mc 1 up
5th - Par 5 hole that seen the wolf shaking on the T with thoughts of the 2nd still fresh in his mind and memories of last time he played this hole, would his memories came back to haunt him? Yes they would as the Wolf left his approach short due to the pressure courtesy of Dave's approach to 15 ft. Par for Dave - Dave Mc 2 up
6th - War of attrition finished in a draw due to Dave getting a shot - Dave Mc 2 up
7th - par 5 and shaky bum time again for the Wolf, but the smile appears after Dave puts his T shot in to the water! Dave then drops, hits hybrid and a lovely approach with a single putt to get a par, level the hole (gross) and take the honours on a SI7 hole - Dave Mc 3 up
8th -par 3 seen experience come to the fore. Gentle tap to the front of the green and 2 putt to win the hole for the Wolf - Dave Mc 2 up
9th - SI1 solid drive, good iron, up and down resulting in a par for the Wolf, is the tide beginning to turn? - Dave Mc 1 up

10th - 3 off the T for Dave ended this hole with the match back to evens. Loosing 3 on the bounce, has he lost that lovin feeling????
11th - 6 shots plays 5 to see it continue at halves. Has Dave Mc stopped the rot???? - still Evens
12th - A long par 4 finds a good drive followed up with a lovely approach to 15ft from 193 yards........... all for nothing as Dave Mc has lost his ball in the rough. The Wolf goes 1 up - is it the end for Dave Mc?????
13th - Arguably the worst T shot to win a hole, although the Wolf will explain how he meant to control it through the gap and around the contours! Big dave's monster arms launching it beyond the green and OOB meant the Wolf goes 2 up and the tide has changed
14th - SI2 seen Dave Mc approach first = wet to see the shot advantage disappear. The Wolf from 153 yards lands right hand side of the green. Nice chip wins the hole.................. for the Wolf - Wolfman goes 3 up and has anyone seen the arms and legs from Dave's teddy
15th. Interesting hole with Dave taking the scenic route to hit a glorious chip to inches for a bogie and to take the hole. Is the comeback on? - Wolf 2 up
16th. WOW JUST WOW. Dave Mc up first puts it to a foot from 170 odd yards followed by the Wolf putting it to about 2 inches (see picture attached). Dave Mc gets a shot and starts to real in the Wolf - Wolf 1 up
17th. Typical golf hole and from a high within minutes you can hit a low as Dave Mc found out. Dave sends his shot well right whilst the Wolf cool as you like strokes it on the the green to take the hole - Wolf 2 up and the match
18th. All is not lost and after scoring birdie on the 16th Dave Mc manages to find another, and his third of the night, to win the final hole and gain another 5 points back.

Scores on the doors:
Dave Mc 41 points
Blue Wolf 66 points

The card is here on display as Bluewolf wanted to prove to everyone that he can actually play golf!!!!!!

Have they not yet top dressed them and brushed it into the holes to sort it. They were tined last week so should have been fully filled, brushed, watered and rolled by now. I think me needs to have a word in the shell like of Gen Manager.

Happy to play elsewhere if you prefer Stu
 
Lol. Great write up Podge. Was a fantastic game and could have gone either way. That 16th hole was amazing. Never seen 2 tee shots like it. Was quite funny to knock it to 2" and still lose the hole.
Oh, and I shot under handicap!!!!!!!!!!
 
Haha, great write up Steve. It was a Cracking round with 2 top notch fellas.

Danny really did play some solid stuff. The man literally missed 1 fairway all night, even that was not by much. The look of sheer horror when I sunk that chip on 2 will stay with me a long time.

as for me, 1-7 was pretty good. 8-14 an absolute mare, which I still can't explain. The win on 15, was much needed, which lead to an unbelievable couple of minutes on 16. 17 was a real let down. 18 was probably the best 3 consecutive shots I've ever played.

all in all, a fantastic night. Loved it :thup:
