SPRING CUP, ROUND ONE

 

SPRING CUP, ROUND 1 - STROKE

.

It was cold

.

Suprisingly cold

.

But clear, and reasonably still

The three Pauls!

None of which explains why good scores were hard to come by

The three girls

The eager anticipation of an Eagles win

Obviously not

The thorn between two roses

Perhaps the excitement of a World Cup quarter final

Possibly

Birgit and friend supporting the Matildas

However, the game seems to have been generally enjoyed in a good spirit

Judging by the generosity displayed at the bar

And the donations to the Jeans for Genes charity

(Our last week of donations)

.

Glen Kelly has possibly established a record with a six-putt on the 15^th

(Although there is talk of Steph having made a similar figure on the 9^th way back one day when the flag was in a particularly nasty position)

.

And Goochy has laid claim to the distinction of failing to hit a single fairway all afternoon (yes, it was one of those sort of days)

Peter goes punk

So, the first round results:

.

Winners!

And there were birdies:

Lynley on the sixth

Glenn Kelly on the seventh

Glen Pope on the seventh, 

Gary on the seventeenth

and Paul Gardner, who got off to a scorching start with birdies on the second and fourth

Show me the lollies!

.

Next week - a sausage sizzle with, apparently, a twist. More will be revealed when you get there, but there will be special treats (straight to Perry Lakes after the game, no hanging around at the bar)

Man of Mystery

It's Colin!

The Golden Hole failed to go off, although Shelley would like to note that she “came close”. Goochy chose his club carefully and managed to go 50m past the hole - possibly mistook the 6 for a 9, easily done.

Keith on the Golden Hole..

.not scaring the pin today

The Longest Drive ladies on the fourth, claimed today by Steph

The mens’ Longest Drive, on the same hole. Boris, then Pug Dog, then Paul Gardner. He would like to note that he went “miles past”!

.

Nearest the Pin in two on the sixth, we had 4D, but trumped by Lynley who put it “in the hole”!

And nearest the pin in two on the thirteenth, Earle first, then Gim, but Karl got even closer.

Karl brings his golfing talents to winning the raffle

A novel novelty on the seventeenth, the Longest Putt, saw Boris, beaten by Peter, but extended even further by Gary.

And perhaps sledge of the day - Goochy noted that Glen had to rush off, as he had a bullfight to attend.

el Matador!
