Clearly the weather forecast frightened a lot of players off today.
The car park was almost empty.
Just the SOS hard core turned up.
We tee'd off early, and had the course pretty much to ourselves.
Didn't have to wait on any holes.
No one in front of us.
Completed the round in three and a half hours.
In fact, a delightful day of golf all round.
Oh, the weather? Two minutes of rain. Tops.
Did we rubbish the nervous nellies? Did we ever.
Some trees just grow in the wrong places
Not worth breaking one of those nice Ping irons on, Max. Take a drop!
The new technology in the pro shop didn't cause any problems.
A countback tussle for second, third and fourth.
And again, the first prize winner also wins the raffle. How often does that happen?
Brett deftly managed the fines, and informed us that three out of four in his group managed to score a windy.
Kerry has this hat if anyone has lost it.
Next week, it's Match Play on the Old Course. The draw? Of course, here it is. (Handicap figures from when player last played on the Old Course)
And if you're worried about whether you should be spending your money on some expensive clubs, here's some serious research (you may need subtitles for the Manchester accent).

Sorry, that's the SOS hard corps
We tee'd off early, and had the course pretty much to ourselves.

| Plenty of time to get tense and nervous over those little putts |
Didn't have to wait on any holes.
 |
| That looked suspiciously like a windy to me, Derek. |
No one in front of us.
Completed the round in three and a half hours.

| How about Apocalypse Now? |
In fact, a delightful day of golf all round.
