Scouser v Bluewolf

[bluewolf]

Just remember Scouser, this famous quote. Says it all for me............

"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

 

[Scouser]

Sounds like a motivational speech for me!

Theres no story in a 12 handicapper bullying a 25 handicapper is there? Whereas the other way around and its miracle at Lymm-dinah :rofl:

H'mm. Not seen/played with either, so merely going from handicaps - presumably reflecting current form!

If the scores are something like 85-90 for Bluewolf and 100-105 for Scouser, it could be close. Somehow winning when failing to break 100 just doesn't seem right! If Scouser does break a ton, I think Bluewolf could struggle.

Whites? Yellows? Depends on styles of play but, on a tight course, generally easier for my medium length straight hitting to beat a long but wild-ish hitter off Yellows than Whites. The effect of visits to nasty places is somewhat nullified if Par is less likely for me.

I'm going to take that as a vote for me then....

I havnt played lymm but I've driven up to the clubhouse and from what I've seen and heard it is very tight, Id imagine you've got to play wisely round there and use your handicap well.
I can see why Junior is so straight with his 3wood and hybrid. I'd imagine they both get a lot of use.

Brilliant!

Forgot the most important bit....Actually, Yes! But wouldn't want to risk even my usual £1 'bet'!

 

[Val]

Shall we just scrap Silloth and go to Lymm and watch this unfold instead

Im thinking so, it's worth the drive down

On the match side, as much as I reckon Scouser could do with a beating im going to suggest 13 strokes might be one to far for Danny and reckon he'll need to play out his skin to beat the man in form.

Danny, take some ear plugs and you might have a chance as he'll try and talk you off your game :rofl:

I predict the match as follows, with the scores based as scouser being the man

1st - AS
2nd - 1D
3rd - 1D
4th - 2D
5th - 1D
6th - AS
7th - 1D
8th - AS
9th - 1U
10th - AS
11th - 1D
12th - 1D
13th - 2D
14th - 1D
15th - AS
16th - 1D
17th - AS
18th - 1U

I stand corrected, some score. At least you got value for money with all the shots you hit

I have now visited most of the course... And I am going to be making suggestions about managing the rough and the width of the fairways and there are toooooooo many bunkers

Is there anything at stake for the match other than bragging rights? Perhaps An edible prize for the winner bought by the Loser?

Heres a good 'un...... If Danny Loses he has to wear Scousers Comedy Flatcap at the next meet :rofl:

 

[steve7]
