West Hill Draw

[USER1999]

M3 from m25 is stuffed. Not moved for half an hour.

Avoid

And then suddenly, 70 mph. Mad.

Had a bad night with my back guys and won't be making it this morning.
Real shame as I really wanted to play the course but in a fair bit of pain atm.

Apologies and have fun guys.

Sorry to hear that Steve. Get well soon.

May be you shouldn't swing so hard?

Cheers Murph. Planning on getting my back better and swinging it harder than ever soon mate, upto the 75% mark!!

Hope you and the guys all have a great day at West Hill. :thup:

Steve, sorry you couldn't make it, but I did get your money back from the Club, so if you send me your bank details I will settle up with you. You were missed mate, especially on the long drive hole, which had a huge bunker just where your normal drive would go.

The course was in excellent condition, just the first green frozen, the rest excellent for the time of year. Pin positions very tricky, and some quick putts down hill and down wind. The scoring was good, especially when you consider another Society playing in front of us with about 20 in it was won with 30 points.oo:

Hope everyone enjoyed the day, and agree with me that West Hill is a top course, and well worth a revisit.

Well played to the winners, and it was lucky for Nick that the stableford he won was a non qualifier.

Cracking course, hope everyone had a really enjoyable day. Well done richart for organising :thup:

Really annoyed I couldn't make this - and as it happens the reason I couldn't didn't materialise so I could have come anyway..

AARRGGHH!!

Glad it was a good day.

Just as well you didn't play as we had perfect numbers.:ears:



:rofl:

 

[golfdub]

Thanks Richard for the great day, just a shame that I could get in groove as you can tell with my lousy 16 points and 9 of the those we're on the last 4 holes which by then it was way to late for any chance to save the card ;(

 

[USER1999]

The best shots I hit all day were in the practice nets before going out.

Coincidentally, that was also the last time I felt warm.

Even my putter was stone cold.

Nice course though, and awesome food.

21pts is pretty good for you normally

I know. More than a point a hole is just obscene.

Rich... Great work at organising it.. had a fab day.. Happy to finish with my score. Picked up a few tips from Murph & Golfdud.

Also enjoyed the banter at my table... great lads and great good ( i think I ate about 50 quid worth of food )

Finally: Can I propose my approach shot on the 18th for the 'Shot of the day'. 130y to the flag, thinned it with an 8 iron to see it sail past the pin, narrowly miss the clubhouse window and a bloke walking across, bounce off the wall and trickle down to the edge of the green!!!! Not having any skill can be an advantage. (any other candidates?)

Murph was pretty good at recovering from the heather.

 

[Crow]

I say well played Murph, 21 was a very decent score today.

21 & 16 points respectively... what can you possibly have learned?

How to get in the rough and stay in it

21 & 16 points respectively... what can you possibly have learned?

On the first hole I shot a 10!! I was trying to be too brave, while both Murph & Jason took their medicine & chipped out. After that I realised whats good for M&J, is good for me.. so I started playing a bit more conservatively.. <just one example>

 

[USER1999]

I was good out of the sand today. Trouble is, I was equally good at getting in there!
