WIRRINA

Sunday 13 January 2013

Cool morning with constant light rain for opening few holes.  Dried up and we got on with it.  Almost a blue sky trying to show through by the time we finished.

14 starters, 5 carts and 4 walkers, three of whom carried, and one pulled, and two of whom looked very cute in matching blue tie down waterproof hats (didn't help their scores, as you'll see by the names absent from the ball-winners on the day).

Dave Hammond won the day with 38 points, Steve White 35, Nick and the Meister on 32, Bronte and Phil Methofer 30, and no-one else scored a ball, except Rossco who got both NTP and Long Drive.

Slug came back to the field after the Handicapper ripped into him for having 43 points off 15 at McCracken on the Thursday prior, and couldn't continue the great form.

A couple of the carts probably covered close to 13 km's which is impressive, given the course is only 5697 metres long.  It was a long walk, as Bronte eventually got the cart couple he was playing with to carry his clubs.

Thanks to Phil for the post game BBQ at his shack down at Carrickalinga, and the funniest thing ever concerning his ex-wife and a video.

Next game is 3rd February, and is the Group 4 competition held at Victor.  We had 4 groups last year, and have nominated the same number again.  We will need the confirmed nominations for this game, as we have to pre-pay for the round.  More info to come out on this one.

I will also forward by email the Ambrose nomination form for Victor, but you will have to arrange your own groups, payments etc.
