Well, Ladies Day and maybe the fact that this coincided with a beautiful Autumn day, certainly brought back the crowds for today's game so i feel obliged to start with a list of 'Welcome Backs'.
So in no particular order,,,,,,
Kerry 'My Beautiful Wife' Gardner
Gary 'Baby Daddy' Burgess
Derek 'Butterfly Hunter' & Frances 'The Enigma' Longhurst
Colin 'Grey Nomad' Kerr
Hopefully i didn't forget anyone, and if i did apologies,,,,,,, my excuse as always the best coverall,,,,,i was drinking my beer!
Ok so let's get into the actual event that is Ladies Day, and after much cajooling by my good lady wife it was deemed necessary that one should indeed dress for the part,,,,, if only for the Tee-Off.
As the Announcer called the SOS group to the tee a rather 'strong' looking 'lady' sauntered up to the 1st and posed for a couple of pics,,,,, a true vision in green!
Thankfully for all it only lasted for the first shot as the free-flowing dress really does get in the way of the swing!

The Game
The rules for the game were simple, for the women they simply had to compete for the Ladies Day Cup.
But the men could only use 5 woods or below (no drivers, rescues, hybrids etc etc).
This caused for a check of all bags to make sure no offending clubs were present.
Gary tried to sneak in his 'driving iron' which of course didn't pass The Scrutineer only to be heard trying to justify the selection of such a flagrant abuse of the rules (only joking pal!) by saying that good old favourite
The men also had the dubious honour of playing for the NAGA award, which combined with the lollies is much sort after and highly coveted award.

I also need to present a 'Bravery Award' to Peter for walking/limping/stumbling through the complete 18 holes without a moan or a grimace (apart from moaning about his golf!), it almost made us feel sorry for him!
Well done Sir Limpalot you showed us youngsters your true grit!
Next Week
The first week of the Club Championship, plus a Putting Competition, so bring your A-Game SOS.
That's all from me folks, so until we cross balls in a few weeks time, laters xxx
