Having a look at my comps left this year it all seems to have gone rather quick.
I have two away days,two 4bbb comps.
I have the captains day at my own club,plus i need two more medal rounds for the GM/Howdidido comp and thats it.
Just back to club comps.
What have you got left? :(
 
Nearly every Wednesday and Saturday we have an open and then a members comp on a Sunday, so quite a few left
 
How many do you want?????????



Its not quite how many i want,it is more like the quality of comps left.
Our saturday and sunday comps and our weekly wednesday club comps are not really well supported.
Last wed there were 3 players,and on saturday we had a Texas scramble where 4 teams entered.
So away days and good comps are something to look forward to.
 
Bloody hell thats not a lot of enterants, ours are always full and some people miss out. Why such a lack of interest?




Good question,and a contensious one at that.
Our club membership is dimminishing rapidly.
We now have 3 seperate factions.
The seniors,the team golfers and the general.
On a Saturday its basically roll up and play,we generally have 15 to 20 that turn up most weeks between 7.46 and 8.30 most enter the comp.
Then the team section turn up about 1,most weeks they wont enter the comp,they have there own hustle.
They will enter generally team comps because they feel they have a better chance to win[being lower handicappers].
They wont enter any stablefords or bogeys.
There is fast becoming no incentive to enter the comps[i came second last week and won a tenner,plus £11.50 in the sweep.
 
Club champs this weekend coming, then captains charity day, 4 nations cup, plenty of medals/stablefords still too

Have also got a pro-am at Brocket Hall next month :)
 
Looking at the list I have maybe 4 stablefords but only 1 medal left.
Bit of a bummer as I only have 1 score in the howdidido OOM when you need 3 to have a chance - good job it was free to enter.
 
GM centeneary final in oct in forrest of arden , realy loking forward to that , 2nd weekend of captain this week , worst round ever on sunday means Im out of contention & playing with the also rans on sat ,, have to play as it is second last GOY comp . which i was leading up to last week .. couple of society outings , 2nd in GOY in that . going for 3 years in a row , down to scratch so cant see that happening .. couple of scrambles & 3 man comps etc so loads to be geting on with .. just need the weather ha
 
I've given up playing in any club comps. I have got a 36 hole County Open at Cromer tomorrow and 36 hole Open at Felixstowe on Sunday though. So apart from those i'm not playing in anything that involves keeping a card.
 
We have at least one comp most weekends until the end of October. We have one or two comps a month for the rest of the year but they are not qualifiers.

I have one more social team match left as well away at Newark
 
Only got a Charity day left on Sunday and thats it for my season as Im away for the next few weeks. On a plus side I will be playing the Saturday swindle and winter league thru the whole of winter.
 
One more weekend of Golf then my membership is over until I find a new club in my new town of residence... Cambridge :D

Probably going to join one in March or April

Its just down the road from where I am moving too, has a 9 month minimum waiting list :(
 
Golf Monthly Centenary Final
Powerplay event
Members/guest day
Club match vs Maidenhead
Ascot Masters (invite only for comp winners in the last 12 months)

Other than that we'll still have our usual monthly medal and stablefords throughout the year to give me achance to get down lower
