The Backyard Golf Society

I will start off this week by reminding members that at our meeting last week it was decided that if you are not here every week, you must phone David to let him know when you will be playing as we only have 4 tee times every week and we do not want to disappoint anyone.

A good turn out with 14 players this past week with everyone in all competitions.  After working out that we were following two 5-ball groups, it was decided that we would go off with one 4-ball and two 5-balls.  Two and three quarter hours later we had finished 9 holes and, not being the most patient of golfers on the Eastern Seaboard, 5 players retired to the bars of Ban Chang and 9 completed the course two and a half hours later!

‘Mister Consistency’ JJ took the game with 36 points and Bernie came in second with 34.  Nearest the pin will be rolled over to next week as well as 8 skins.  Skin results for this week showed that Bernie is on his game as he took (9) and Dan M a solitary (1).

Everyone met up again at Mama’s Bar in Ban Chang with the main topic of conversation being “when are these tourists going home?”
