HUTCHY
March 2011 and Hutchy won the Spoon at our Grand Final. Sitting in the lounge before dinner he was oblivious to the Spoon peeking round the window, courtesy of Brian Newall.

The post about Ian's visit to his doctor following this Final became the most viewed post of the year.

I think it deserves another wee airing in the lead up to this years final.

To be posted soon !!!

CAWDER NUTTERS !!!!!



What can I say about this. It certainly ain't golf and definitely not fun that's for sure.
But on Sunday a brave 6 men set off in shocking conditions and after 8 holes it was down to 5 men as one collapsed due to hypothermia and frost  bite.
He was left lying at the side of the green and the rest told him to make his own way back to club house as they all had good scores on and weren't going in because of  a wee  blizzard.
The other NUTTERS continued to sledge their way round the course and completed 18 snow covered holes in a white out.
I jut hope there weren't to many Cawder members there to witness the "crew from Lenzie " oot in blizzard conditions as we will all be tarred with the same brush .
What they will be saying is that we are all fucking NUTTERS that " Lenzie team "

LOOKING VERY WINDY



WEATHER FOR SUNDAY

It's to be dry but just 2 degrees.

The winds will be a major factor possibly the strongest we have ever played in on any Tour round.

They are to be sustained at 20mph and the gusts 39mph all day !!

Wrap up and put a couple of bricks in your pockets to stop you blowing off the course.

One things for sure the scoring will be wild also !!!

As they say it's the same for everyone.

Full field of 28 playing.

List and details  in earlier post.

PRACTICE ROUNDS ARE NOT ON !!!

SCORECARD FOR ST MICHAEL'S GOLF COURSE

16th with the railway and OB on the left
Who's sneaking up for practice round ??

There is a certain player who is currently near the top of the leaderboard that is possibly planning to go for a practise round this week before Sundays round. He is obviously taking this very serious and as most haven't played this course it seems he is trying to get any advantage he can.

Is this the true spirit of a winter golf tournament ?

Fucking right it's not.

Anyone found to have been up practising on the course shall have a 10 points deduction !!!

To let everyone see the course details I have posted the scorecard. Doesn't look very long but that normally means lot's of trouble elsewhere. There's also the railway line to avoid on 16. Who will end up on the rail tracks ?

With a bit of luck it will be the desperate bastard going up to practice before.

15th par 3 and all downhill

We will use the 7th and the 15th as the nearest the pin holes.

The back 9 holes were all designed by Old Tom Morris.

First tee time 10.40am so a little bit later in starting than normal.

After the last rounds poor show for the draw lets all try and be there for 10.20am please !!


16th fairway

Full numbers for Sunday unless someones Maw,Wifey or Burd puts the foot down and says "your no going it's ma day"
