Sharpley Springs Autumn meet - who's up for it?

[Beezerk]

Bit earlier for me probably, definitely need to warm up on the range and putting green first. Coffee sounds good though to warm the old cockles.

 

[Kellfire]

Whoops I thought this was in October! Sorry lads, definitely out of this one, hand is still nowhere near ready.

 

[splashtryagain]

Looking forward to this!
I think??!! Not playing much at the moment so could be interesting....

Weather looks good, course in good nick, see ya Sunday

 

[Wayman]

I was at the range other day and greens looked good

 

[Beezerk]

Are people meeting in the bar for a coffee first of all or do we just say hello whilst changing our shoes in the car park five minutes before tee off? I was aiming to get there for about 10.40 ish. Is that a little late, first tee is 11.30 I think, or about right?

Does anyone know what the others look like? I know I've briefly met LT a while ago but I ain't got a clue about anyone else.
I'll have my garish luminous green Nike bag so can't really miss me!

 

[Lord Tyrion]

I'll have a carnation in my button hole and a trilby on. In reality, blue top, black pinstripe trousers. I'll be the one looking around hoping to see a friendly face. See you all shortly.

So a good day was had by all, some great golf, some poor golf (me) really good to meet Neil, Martin and Andy (Lord Tyrion, Beezerk and Splashtryitagain) great front 9 from Martin (23 points) and also him and Neil 1 up in the match, Martin decided to give the rest of us a chance and laid off on the back 9 but not so much to be caught, Martin finished winning on 35 points and him and neil took the match 3&2.
Sharpley is quite a new course, less than 10 years old, not the longest but plenty of thought and positional play needed.
All in all a good day and look forward to the next NE get together some time in October

You too mate, plan is to invite each other to home courses, can also fall back on Sharpley as it promises no Winter Tees or Greens, hopefully another meet before Christmas.

Yeah that sounds great...bonus with sharpley being 10 minutes away from me haha

It's my go to course in winter at times, drains so well.

It can be brutal at times in winter though with it being exposed on the top of the hill.

Good golf (not me - dead last) good company and good course, good day all round! Thanks for organising this Paul, my turn next! Word of advice - do not take beezerk on for money, he's a bit handy.
See arrange a game thread!

 

[Wayman]

Sorry missed you lot today was busy doing things.
You's had some good weather hopefully get another meet here
Play beezerk for money just start talking about clubs and shafts and he goes all potty haha

 

[Beezerk]

Cracking day of golf, a bonus to be on the winning side but the result wasn't important because the company was top notch.
Quite how far Andy hits the ball defies gravity, it was worth the admission price alone just to witness his "tonkage". Hopefully we can get something sorted in the near future *cough* Hexham *cough* for another meet.
And to top it all off, I found my wedge in the van, it must have fallen out when I was farting around in the morning.

Fist pumps all around

In the Van, in the f-in-van, I knew you were playing mind games to throw me and Andy off😃
Good call on Andy 311 yard drive on to the putting surface on a Par 4.







Downhill, wind assisted!

I know, felt a right tit when I saw it there after the fuss I made ha ha.
Would have definitely been 40 points had she been in the bag ne:

 

[splashtryagain]

And the useless eedjit missed the putt��
In the van??? Well we had asked everyone we could find if they'd seen it��
I was ready to blame it on the fat orange buggy boys!

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Cracking day, good people to play with. Very enjoyable. I'm sure I heard Andy's golf balls shout "surrender". Fair mashes the ball.

Sharpley was a good choice. I had not heard of the place before this was arranged but I was very impressed by it. I would happily recommend it to anyone who has not been there.

Martin - Pleased you found your wedge. I've already started "watching" mini drivers on ebay, curse you for letting me try yours. You should have said no.......

Thanks again to Paul for organising the round. Hope to see you all again, and others, at Hexham.

You know it makes sense :thup:
