NW Winter Links League Table

We are at a distinct advantage considering we have an opportunity to play most weeks.


I'd be happy for it to be 'any full round score' as the league is looking a little light.

Still need to put the points on the board though.

On last week's evidence I'd need to play 36 holes to keep up !!!

Tbh Gaz, I did the 2 minimum (originally 4) Just to encourage meets over the winter.
Also if it was single scores from the outset I was worried in case Half the Forum Signed up and I had a nightmare updating the scores.

Ive no problem with single scores now the league is in place but I'd feel like it'd be defeating the original Aim and I'm sure the scores will start coming in now Christmas is out of the way :thup:

Appreciate you doing this Dave as its a bit of fun. hope this gets a few more cards in. :)
 
I saw the video on twitter of Lymm, unbelievable the amount of flooding. Hopefully its not done too much damage etc.

It'll be ok. It's the holes on the bottom that will take longer to recover. The heathland holes should be ok now.....just no one can get to them!!!
 
I'll get some rounds played soon enough. Not really picked up the clubs since mid October. Not had the time or the weathers been *****. Gonna be a few weeks before I get the chance again, maybe February!!! Oh well, it's not like I can get any worse is it???
 
38 at Huyton & Prescot today for me.

34 points for Odvan

Not sure what Stu and Duffers scored, think Stu had 25. Dave mc had 22.

Some scoring in this weather mate, well played :cheers:

Hope the rain stayed away for you?

At last someone might be able to challenge Pedro and Gary's weekly scores ;)
 
A massive 30 pts at Formby Hall for me. I reckon I had 6 X 3 putts and missed a further 2 from a couple of feet. 34 was winning when I left too. There was almost a helicopter incident, but we were playing with someone we didn't know so I restrained myself :) :)

I reckon Css will be 20 pts though so stick me down for 46 :rofl:

We got absolutely drenched down the first and second but after that it was fine.

Very windy though and the ball wasnt travelling too far, course played very long.

Didnt really feel like i played that well to be fair, only hit about 4 GIR. Chipping and putting was solid though.
 
42 points for me @ Formby Hall, if you look at my card in a mirror! Joint 12th when leaving and bound to have held on :mmm:

Andy played very well in tough conditions, and did very well not to windmill his putter in the general direction of Skem. Should be worth another couple of points for restraint!

Nearest the pn today felt nearly as pointless as @ Souherness.
 
As birchy said, I banked a whopping 22pts. This included 5 blobs and 8pts at the turn. Picked up a little until the 13th where I devolped a new shot, the miss, followed by a top that went all of 1/2 inch. Bad times.

Great to catch up again, even managed a few social pints.

However stuey now has my clubs and is probably gonna keep them hostage till I do some work in his. It mightn't be a bad thing in hind sight...
 
Out again today at Stand which I have to say, was in superb nick considering all the rain, fairways were fantastic and greens ran very well too in the main - and that's with another overnight deluge that ran on into the morning.

Anyway, was out with this little bloke called Scott. Some say he has 4 mules to carry his water for him and some say that he has a massive collection of sombrero's.

So despite scoring 38 points, that pain in the arse scored a super 41 :thup:
 
Jeez Birchy's on a mission just now! Well played again, good scoring from you aswell Matt.

Played SAOL with Junior, Karl and Huds today, didn't finish due to the horrific rain but after 16 holes I think Karl and Junior both had about 37 points?

I was on 33 and Huds would have had a cricket score if he'd putted out!!

Great game actually, good golf all round.
 
Great game at St Ann's Old Links. Even with the wind, we all played really well. I had 35 pts after 16 holes. Me and Huds let Junior and NWJ back in it after being 3 up at one point and we were one up when rain and wind stopped play. It was Southerness/Aberdovey like. I even managed to snap hook a drive 200 yards and it ended up behind me on the 18th.....

Cracking day for a game today at Stand. Well i say cracking but that just means it wasnt pissing it down :D

Course is in fantastic condition, its similar condition to a links course at this time of year its that good. Fairways were lovely for hitting off and greens were in great nick too.

Started off poorly but a lovely birdie putt from off the green on the 6th got things moving in the right direction much to Matt's dismay :rofl:

Some great play all round and a thoroughly enjoyable last round of 2015 :thup:
