Maxitours at Conwy Golf Club
Conwy Golf Club was enjoyed by one hundred and ten competitors who teed off in today’s event. The course was so good considerate Giles Terry actually hit his tee shot onto the roof of the green keepers sheds as he played the 17th hole so that he could go over and thank the lads personally for all their terrific work.
The sun really came out for a glorious afternoons golf, Steve Brown was in the bar ‘I think its clouding over and getting dark’ he said before his long suffering mates pointed out he was looking through the dark tinted window.
Ron Hopkins is a Maxitours regular and world renowned gynaecologist and he played once again this week. Rather worryingly he lost his putter on 2nd hole and has absolutely no idea where he put it.
Steve Garnett(11) from Davyhulme Golf Club played with his talented twin boys today- Sam(+1) and Josh (scr). He thought his team mates were pointing out dead sheep on the welsh hillside all the way round. ‘It’s STILL EWE’ they kept telling him as he happily three putted most of the tricky Conwy greens.
Dave Stanhope’s(11) day went from bad to worse. First he was drawn to partner tubby Dave Antrobus(7), then he was narrowly pipped into 3rd place on a card play off in the main event after scoring a career best 43 points. Most upsetting of all for the High Legh member was when his post round packet of crisps were blown off the balcony just seconds after he opened them. Devastated Stanhope nearly fell through the railings as he tried in vain to rescue his favourite nibbles.
Second place went to Kevin Reeves(17) and Bob Chester(8) from Lymm. Kevin is a well known vet who specialises in greyhound rehabilitation. He has been known to chase a few rabbits himself during his round but today Kevin stayed on the fairways and was delighted to take second place with 43 points.
Late in the day the wind dropped a little and Charles Herbert(16) and Ross Birch(10) made the most of the conditions to score an excellent 45 points. Ross had a tremendous finish when he picked up 4 points on both the tough 16th and 18th holes after making excellent birdies. Well played chaps.
Many thanks to all players for your terrific support today, Tim.
