West Midlands Saturday 2nd September 2006

A very windy but thankfully dry day saw a wide range of performances. The best of the day came from club captain Pete with a solid round comprising of 9 pars and a birdie for his 45points. Next came new society member Brian (Left) with one of his best rounds ever, made up of 7 pars and no blobs and using his two shots a hole to full effect with a couple of nett eagles. Slotting into 3rd place was off course Gez who had a slightly below average front nine going out in 47, he then came to life with a vengeance on the back 9. Six pars and a birdie in 7 holes was only spoilt with a single and double bogey either side to finish the back 9 in a superb 37 for a haul of 40points. Despite all that Gez had a good old moan about the course complaining there was too much concrete!!

Steve W and Jim C both continued there good form with another solid round both playing slightly better than there handicaps, ending up with a 38 and 37 respectively. Jim (right) chipping on to the green at the 18th after just finishing on the waters edge. The only other person to play to or better than his handicap was Bez who posted a solid par round of 36points.

As for those who will wish to forget the day was top society handicap man Craig who had a absolute nightmare with 8 blobs, 5 nett pars and only 1 nett birdie for his total of 15pts.

Below Dave W and Sean A looking pensive watching the other guys teeing off at the first. Dave ended up with a below average round of 29 while Sean was pretty steady with 32;

 

Cam had another up and down round with his normal mixture of power and lost balls. After a relaxing holiday his wayward hitting started from the first but a good back nine pulled his score back to a respective 32 points.

Krys and Lee both had poor days in the wind ending up with 24 and 26 respectfully.
