Competition report
Well, the weather was decidedly dodgy for the whole day, although the rain did hold off until we at least finished the round. I was taking no chances and decided to play with the golfers newly qualified for first prize. And what a good decision it turned out to be!!!
From the off I found myself (15hcp) in a constant battle to keep pace with the player who claimed a 22hcp. In a moment of weakness, which will never be repeated, I ,for some reason, allocated a 20 handicap. So, on we played and had we not been on such a forgiving course a 20 handicap might have been on the mark. However, after many a sliced shot onto the next fairway, good recovery to the green and putting that would put some proīs to shame Larry Ridges walked into the clubhouse with 41pts!!! I know, I know, but on a day that Cristbel shot 37pts and Richie Bell shot 35pts, I can rest asured that the course was being kind to nearly all of us.
So with out further ado, I congratulate Larry for a fine performance and royally slice 5 shots off that handicap!! 15 now Larry, and donīt complain...... itīs what you played to!! hahahahaha!!
