Vivary Away Friendly

Captain Siabi Reports: 

The match at the forest of Vivary was uncomfortable, to say the least. All CST teams were giving shots in some cases up to 12.

I never thought we can play another course and actually lose 4 shots, but at Vivary, we did.

The return match will be interesting as their platers will be getting 3-4 shots.

They gave us a good hiding winning the match 5 to 1. Only Martin Leigh & Terry Rutherford managed to win their match 1up.

James T Lauchlan  adds:

Also doesn't change the fact a 30 handicapper gets 9 shots n shoots 2 eagles 4 birdies the rest pars to beat you 6n5. N laughs when you point out he says he was a 22 handicap till recently. Av said my gripe. We were beaten. But there's always the return

..but hang on a darn minute, inches below is a listing of our home comp, using same language as Jim ( well close anyway) - where 4 Points means Nett Eagle...
Ken Trott had 5 Birdies, 2 Eagles and an Albatross - with a 3 on the 18th with 2 shots  !!




Martyn Jewell sums it up eloquently as usual below :-

What a field for the Super Seniors Cup!  Ladbrokes have joint favourites - Barrow and Hinds. But they may need to watch out for a high priced outsider.  Who, after Monday's win, may Trott up and take the converted 🏆. Early to bed boys!

Tote Betting has, of course, Stuart Pope as firm favourite as silverware always seems to bring out  the worst in him ...
