Well thats not keeping a low profile

[chrisd]

Having won a few competitions recently, and two more in the Golf Week that finished on Friday, with only one being qualifying for handicap and my name being bandied around as a bandit, I thought that todays Texas Scramble with my regular partner and me, partnering two higher handicappers would be an ideal way of keeping under the radar!

So the two imports, with our regular ones being unavailable, were a right couple of pee takers and after a couple of holes thought that I'd just enjoy the morning with a healthy dose of banter (most at my expense as the oldie) A fair few pars started to turn into the odd birdie and when we bogied a hole and I thought "that was that" but more birdies and a 6.5 combined 10% handicap bought us in at 57.4 - and 3rd place - and more "bandit" comments

Not only that, but the assitant pro was doing a challenge for a £5 on the par 3 18th and if anyone hit closer than him on the 194 yarder, they got a £10. Me - 15 foot from the pin, him in the bunker! Let him keep the tenner as it was a members charity game for a cancer charity for his daughter who died aged 6 and he has raised £40k + so far.

I hope the handicap Sec will be charitable as well !

Rule 19 is going to catch up with you mr sockets

Where's the hc sitting at the moment

 

[louise_a]

lokking at your handicap movement, I cant see why you get called a bandit.

 

[mashleyR7]

You should invite me to play a few comps with you, the way i've been playing you wont win a thing so no one will care if you are a bandit!!

10.6 OS, only the monthly medal counted for adjustment. Most of the other wins have been pairs or team comps but I have more than pulled my weight. Did a gross 75 in winning the pairs betterball and so happy where my game is at the moment.

They keeep talking about " special Adjustments" with the new CONGU software but as the scores are not logged, they won't flag up. When I was on the Golf Committee I did plenty of Rule 19 and thought some may want to get their own back!

Crikey me Chris, talk about a hot streak! Hope it continues for you and that you get the reward of a cut. Sounds like it's due!

 

[Mattyboy]

So Oddsocks has passed the hot streak to Chris. If we are keeping it in the South East can I have a borrow some time?
