MILNGAVIE GENTS OPEN 2011
Today we were very lucky with the weather and it turned out a excellent afternoon for golf with us getting it dry and sunny the whole round. The course was in very good condition and had stood up well to the mornings monsoons.
The winner today was Davy Graham with a 1 above par 69. I am told that could have been much better but things like 4 putting from 8 feet and 2 putting from 2 inches - yes that's right from 2 inches he had a 2 putt.
In second place Ian Hutchinson beat Paul James on count back with both of them shooting 70.
There was 2 diddy's today racking up huge scores on 1 hole and the first being Alex Smart with a 10 at a par 4 and myself with a 9 also at a par 4. That hole was the low point for me as well as losing a ball at a par 3 but for Alex I think the whole round was a tough one with only 1 par and 1 birdie all day and he took 97 shots to get round.
We had 1 NR and that was Graham Dickie who threw the towel in on the 18th.
Another Hacker who battled away was big Stevie Mac who lost a wheel on his trolley at the 13th and had to carry his cart bag the last 6 holes- well done big guy as it wasn't easy out there with the heat and sun. The trolley is still lying out at the 13th abandoned for anyone interested in salvaging it.

Today we were also told that Hutch's doctor is a lady - yes the same doctor who has a putter behind her desk for him to use so she could check the balance between his ears. You couldn't make that up or could you ??
The Hackers new European Tour caddie Stevie Mac

Alex adding up his 97 shots and still smiling !!
Billy , Davy and The Mexicano -Winter Tour Champion Neil Keir
Between them they had 202 shots out on the course REAL TRUE HACKERS
and they are laughing and smiling as they finished !!!
Alex shows off with a close shot at a par 3 one of just 2 good shots hit today !! Yes he did get his 2. I also got a 2 but forgot to go and collect my winnings before I left. Alex never entered for the 2's which sums up his day.
