SPRING CUP ROUND 2

.

 

The second round of the Spring Cup

.

Yes, it was still technically winter..

The ducks taking an interest on
what's happening on the 2nd green

But the weather was beautifully spring-like

.

Perth at its very best

Earle trespassing on the 12th

Some of us had not distinguished ourselves on the first round

So no pressure today

The only thing we turned up for, really.

 

We were reminded, there’s no wipe when you’re playing stroke. If you don’t complete the hole, or you have a disaster, it’s a 10 for pars 4 & 5, and a 7 for a par 3. You don’t get to DQ - you take the maximum stroke.

Karl has completed three rounds, and has applied for membership of SOS. The committee will consider.

This is Karl

Some novel novelties today:

.

Nearest the bunker on the 5th (without going in) - Keith, beaten by Derek

.

Nearest in three on the 8th - Goochy, beaten by Popey

.

Women’s longest drive on the 13th - Carol, Vicky, Lynley, then Steph (by a mile!)

Men’s longest drive on the 13th - Vicky (?), beaten by Popey, Gary, Pugsy and then Coops.

NTP on the 18th, Keith, Earle, Gary and Steph!

Today’s results:

So, the first few placings  for the Spring Cup:

Steph, with                                 143 
Gary and Paul Gardner with       148 
Gerry with                                   151
Paul Cooper with                        153
Lynne and Peter with                  154
Shelley, Goochy,and Derek with 155

A clear winner - congratulations, Steph!



Birdies for Goochy and Peter on the 10th

Goochy's eagle putt on the 10th

 Gary on the 18th, Gardy on the 4th and 15th (both par 5s)

Carol flirts with Danger on the 14th
(and someone else on the 15th)

No birthdays today

We welcomed Vicky back after a six-month lay-off

.

And of course, we had the sausage sizzle to look forward to

.

Special thanks to Carol, Shelley, Earle, Vicky, Goochy who helped get it all together

And extra treats with excellent chicken strips, and a range of fine wines.

Just another great day with SOS

















Next week, Club Championships, Round 6 of 7
