Official Thread: William HUnt Trilby Tour 2012

I'm on the reserve list and not sure how it works. Has anyone been a reserve last yer? Do they tell you when you cna enter and which ones have spaces left? Might be up for caddying at Caversham if anyone is interested and I don't get in by right

I was a reserve last year. places were full early on but either they released additional venues or someone dropped out because I was contacted. They either called me or mailed me and I went to the website and paid up the balance and played at Foxhills.

Theres every chance the same will happen to you Martin. If you dont get in though and you're still up for caddying at Caversham then it would be great if you could caddy for me. If you dont get in yourself or get a better offer that is!!

Just had an email from Trilby Tour saying from the 14th Feb I might be able to book a place if one becomes free. I wish I had got on the list sooner.

Fingers crossed!
 
My place will definately be coming free. Credit where credit is due though. I have just had an E mail informing me that they are going to refund my deposit due to all the problems experienced. I wasn't really expecting that so I will compliment them on their actions in this case...And then I will go and spend it on something pointless..
 
Waste of time playing in this , too many bandits playing of handicaps that are 4or 5 to high , play for the experience b all means and if you win great , i know a guy in it last year off a 10 handicap , 5 or 6 would be more to the mark
 
Never pointless when you take money off Smiffy. What's your score so far. Played 3 - lost 2 H1 Smiffy. Time we dropped partners and went at it head to head mano v mano

I'd be up for that Homer. I'll even let you choose the venue. It would be interesting to see the result and compare the "lessons, practice and warm up" approach to the "never set foot on a range, turn up in the car, rush to the tee and get on with it" one.
And as for my "score?".....don't forget you were playing with Hywel. Not being funny mate, he did the real damage. :whistle:

Wow, this is like Rocky. :rofl:

Get it right
;)

Stuff the Trilby Tour, Homer vs Smiffy singles matchplay would be worth the Sky Subs alone. Especially if they were dressed up in some ridiculous outfit.

It may have to be broadcast after the watershed, as it wouldn't be suitable for a family audience.

TT do rigorous checks on your handicap as much as any other comp organiser could do anyway.
I cant see that organiser can completely guard against banditry but the TT do their best and the 3/4 format helps.

In my 4 ball at Foxhills a "1" handicapper won the group and qualified of 36 pts so no 44 pts playing of 18 from anybody on the day. He went on to win the playoff that day, infact the 4 finalists that day were all 4 and below.

I dont doubt what you say but tbh , if a 10 plays to 5 or 6 is that a bandit or someone who is just having a good round?

Dont we all have a -5 round in us once in a while?
 
I am still waiting for Homer to suggest a venue and date.
:whistle:

He's been really busy running round Berkshire trying to find a Vokey wedge in the right spec. ;) his made up friend is very demanding.

Are you gonna play under the mantle of 'protector of truth and justice' ?
