Crookhorn Nov 2021
|
So a game in November just.
We planned for a short game as we were informed that 3 holes would be closed. However the weather gods leading up to the game were very kind to
us and the course. But a few days before we arrived, the local lads had used 3 greens for
motocross practice so some temporary greens on the day.
The weather on the lead up was good on the day however it was freezing with gale force winds.
10 sturdy souls arrived to play the match. Due to the conditions the scores were not going to break any records
Nearest the pin on the 3rd Jacob
Nearest the pin on the 16 Keith B
Overall winner on 29 points Bruce
Andy will try and arrange a game for late in January keep a lookout for his email.

Chiddingfold Oct 2021
|
On an overcast day six members turned up at Chiddingfold, sadly Steve
Stickland with a bad back and John Edwards with a cold/virus couldn't
play. Two sets of three teed off on time and away we went.
Paul Smith came in first with thirty six points. John Green in second
with thirty five points. Robert Holmes with thirty three points. Keith
Beilby with thirty points. Jacob Heller and Stuart Moon with joint fifth
with fifteen points each. John Green won nearest the pins on 6th and
13th. Well done to Paul for the win and everyone enjoyed the day.
Hope someone can organise the next round in November The consensus was
Milford but anywhere will do.

East Horton Sept 2021

What is normally the Captains Cup took place but not for the Cup this
year, as we haven't had enough games to actually qualify to take
part in the event due to Covid. Eight of us arrived including
Jacob (Robs Grandson and only his second round on a full course) for
bacon rolls and Coffee. After 18 holes on the Greenwood, 5 shots clear
our Captain returned 33 points Rob on 28, Steve and Bruce on 26. Steve
managed to dribble on the 6th green for nearest the pin. and Bruce took
the Longest drive on the 18th.
In for a later than planned ham egg and chips and then onto the eleven
holes on the Parkland, Nearest in two on the 292 yard 4th was not
taken. Then the devastating news after 29 holes the bar was shut.
A very quick count up saw the below results with an extra prize of a new
Brolly donated by Graham went to Andy for best Last Eleven.

TOWER Aug 2021
|
Well it was good to meet up in a more relaxed Covid safe'ish
environment (hopefully). Eight came to the Tower for what should
have been a sunny day, but the weather gods decided different, overcast
with the occasional drizzle was the order of the day.
Bruce led the front with 21, with Keith B close behind. on 20 Nearest
the pin on 3rd was taken from Bruce by Rob But taken again by Keith B
Back nine saw Paul with a mere 24 points followed by Rob on 20. Nearest
the pin in 2 on the 13th saw Rob the only contender. We won't mention
John E or Stuart Moon chipping down the hole a couple of times or Stuart
playing with a loose head on his driver. Wow what difference it made
when tightened.
Totting up the score saw Paul take the prize with 40 points and 2 shot
cut. Bruce with 38, Rob 36 and Keith B 35 all getting a 1 shot
cut.
It was good to see Lyn taking part riding round in a buggy, but deciding
to call it a day on the 15th.
See some of you at East Horton on 4th Sept

SOUTHWICK PARK July 2021

| The second game since Covid 19 restrictions started in March 2020, the
other game being Milford, way back in October last year. Six of us
arrived at the course but it was nearly only five playing as John
Edwards locked his keys in his car. John Green saved the day (we won't
ask how he knew how to get in) John G led the way with 19 points at the turn, 3 points ahead of
Steve on 16. Steve was on song with the par threes winning both nearest
the pins, even though he was sporting a huge bruise on his leg thanks to
John G's tee shot on the dog leg 4th. The greens were undulating and very fast as the Club
Championship had taken place that morning. Lots of out of bounds which I
kept on visiting. A nice coarse around a fishing lake.
Steve and John Edwards came home in 17 points, John G managed 16
points, winning with a total of 35. Steve 2nd with 33 and 3rd a very
proud John Edwards on 27.
John G drops two shots to 22, Rob up to 22 and Bruce up to 19.
It was good to get some normality back with the hope the next game on
the Tower Sat 21st August has a better turnout.
Bruce obo John G |
