A splendid day for a game of golf
or doing some last minute Christmas shopping
The early 7:24 am start was painful for some (we all know who) causing a shemozzle and shuffling a couple of members around. Thanks for your patience Don & Andrea
Oh Shelley, what did you think when putting Steph into group 2?
BEFORE THE GAME
|
Birgit, Derek & Frances in festive attires |
|
Paul B. not looking bad either |
|
and Frances just having fun |
|
some wise words |
|
Shelley, Birgit & Karl - Karl's wife couldn't decide which shirt to buy, so she tailored 1 out of 2 - Shelley's festive shirt is still sitting at home. OK, bring it on next year! |
|
good to see Michael/Mick back on the course |
|
Boris & Greg |
|
Gary pink-ish |
|
what a cute couple, Paul B still smiling before hitting his first ball |
ON THE COURSE
Paul B marked his ball " HO HO HO" he will never do that again.
|
Paul B's first drive, the ladies tee didn't fit onto the photo, too far away |
Instead of driving it 200 m down the fairway, it flew straight up and landed 1 m in front of the green teebox. Paul later admitted it was a trick shot only performed to entertain his audience.
Thanks Paul, it worked a treat, the rest of the group had a couple of giggles, also known as "Schadenfreude" and relaxed for their own drives.
|
Paul's 2nd drive |
Andrea had a great first 9, but ran in a couple of troubles, but never fails to laugh about herself.
True golf spirit
|
Andrea pole dancing at hole # 12, yep she double bogeyd that one. luckily she has 2 shots there |
|
and just kicking it out on #14 |
|
bunker precision work done by Paul B. and Birgit |
Citations on the course:
Mark Wilson was heard swearing "yet another f#$%ing par"
and was granted 5 bogeys on the back nine.
Yes there is a golf god.
Lynne about Mark Smith: "I have never seen someone playing not good and staying so calm". That's the golf spirit....one week a champ next week the lollies.
Karl to Birgit: " I wanna get better without practicing" Won't happen!
|
"Don't drink and drive" Gardi's drive on the 9th after popping a can of beer. Was it his first?
|
Hole #18: Karl placed his 2nd shot around 60 m from the pin, pitched it on and right into the hole. What a birdie!! Champ Karl!

Karl @ hole 18 |
There were other dramas, but let's share that later.
THE RESULTS
Novelties:
LDM1 Keith beaten by Gardi
NTP2 Andrea the one and only
LDW5 Stiff knees beaten by Andrea
NTPI210 Keith the other one and only
NTB14 a lot of contesters, France, Stiff, Gary, but Gardi got closest
The more important results:
- Karl won with a fantastic score of 41, 26 pts on the back 9!!
- Runner-up Captain Gerry not bad either, his secret is to practice at Wanneroo and watches lots of golf you-tube videos.
- Mark Wilson beaten by Gerry on countback by 2 points, his secret is his virtual golf range at home.
THE GOLDEN HOLE
Here the hero of the minute, Karl with Andrea helping to measure and confirm the win.
but a couple of minutes later power woman Lynne put her ball a meter from the pin.
Lynne was in a fierce battle with Mark to winning the lollies and after checking the distance she told him: "I will use my 6 rescue perfect for 126 m...and how right she was.
Well done Lynne.
|
could have been a hole in 1 |
|
no hard feelings, Karl, there are more golden holes to win |
|
Only 46 bugs, but the Golden Hole is not about the money, but the honor. |
|
Thanks Hunter, we all will take the advise on board. No lollies next week |
