Mate, I didn't play to Scousers handicap.. I think I 3 putted 10 times. The greens were the worst I've seen in a while.. No matter how hard you hit it, the ball wouldn't reach the hole.. Really frustrating.. I hit it long and straight off the tee, hit most GIR, but the putter was stone cold..
... Not a course I'll be rushing back to play..But, on the plus side, the company was great..:thup:

Oh, and hows this for a series of unfortunate events..
I borrowed the wife's Sat Nav to find the golf club. At the end of the round, I got in the car, switched on the Sat Nav, and pressed the "Home" button. It was only when I was in the middle of Cheshire that I realized that I was going the wrong way. Rather stupidly I had assumed that my wife had set the "home" function in the 12 months that she'd had it. She hadn't. The Sat Nav was taking me to Cornwall!!
.. I reset it and went home. Because I was now late, I let the fuel tank run a bit too low. When I pulled into my drive and switched off the engine, everything on the car stopped working. EVERYTHING. The key won't work, the electrics wont turn on... The car is now a complete lemon.. And I've already agreed a trade in on a new car for next weekend.. Not in a good mood about it..............:angry:

I was wondering where the hell you were going when you turned right at the lights and we all turned left! I thought you knew a shortcut

Some parts of the greens were like rolled mud, others had grass but the balls were bouncing like crazy.
Dave (Vikingman) had a great back 9 but i dont think we are allowed to give away scores. In all honesty, ballstriking was really impressive all round but with the greens it really was a shortgame course.
Memorable holes.....16th over the canyon to the fairway running at a right angle to the tee, 18th is a decent downhill par 5 with a pond infront of the green and the couple of drivable par 4's are ok also.
