INVITATION FROM MICK

I'M THE 
BIRTHDAY 
BOY




This Saturday night Mick Drummond is having a 30th (Aye right ! ) birthday party at the Giffnock North Social Club. He has asked me to invite any Hacker/partner along for a night out and join him in his celebrations.

Mick has been away on holiday for the last 3 weeks and is sorry for the short notice. He hasn't told me a time but I am guessing 7-7.30pm.

Have a good night Mick and at the next Hackers match as well as a handicap certificate bring along your birth certificate !

30th ma arse !!

LATEST MATCHPLAY RESULTS

JOHN AND SIMON AND INTO THE SEMI FINAL

John Wynn beat Brian Murphy 3-2 at Lenzie last weekend but John said it was a lot tighter than the score shows.

Simon Jessney beat Billy Gibson 3-2 also at Carnwarth and even tho Billy had 3 birdies it wasn't enough to beat Simon.

Billy lost 3 balls and that cancelled out his birdie holes but he said Simon was just to good for him on the night.

So well done to both and they are into the semi.

The draw for the semi finals will be on the 31st of July or before  if all ties are completed early.

GLASGOW GAILES


GLASGOW GAILES
THE 17TH OFF THE 
BLACK TEES
(not recommended for us Hackers)




I was down at Gailes yesterday walking around with Craig who was out for a practice round for the weekends Tennent Cup. It is in fantastic condition from tee to green and you are all in for a treat. The rough is knee deep and fairways very very tight as they have grown the rough in- bring loads of balls !!!.

The above picture is the very tight 17th a par 4 measuring 403yds off the black tees. You can see the whites 50yards in front on the LHS  and the Hackers yellow tees some 90 yards ahead on the RHS. Also you can see the rough and just how deep and tight it is from this photo.

Measuring some 6903yds off the blacks it's a tough course. The yellows are are 6300yds and that will be the tees used for our Summer match.

I won't be playing this year as I am up in Nairn that weekend with Craig for the Scottish Northern Championship but I'm sure you will all have a good time.
