Maxitours at grand Hazel Grove

Another terrific day of golf was enjoyed by everyone at Hazel Grove today.

The club has won a number of awards and continues to improve with a new chipping area for its members and a new balcony to enjoy drinks in the sunshine. Fantastic progress.

I don’t know what is in the Hazel Grove air but wherever you look you see happy members. They are gardening, parking cars, running the half way house and generally making us feel very, very welcome.

What a club. Thank you.

They also have James Rowlands as their pro- great lad and friend.

There were a few hot faces in the bar after 18 holes in Mediterranean heat. Barry Caldwell had a twig stuck in his hair after searching for a ball at the last but claimed he put it there to shelter from the sun. Geoff Bickerton looked ill but on closer inspection it was the three pints of suncream he put on his face.
The bar did a roaring trade. Thank you.

We all know that golf is a marvellous game and you can play with all levels, ages and abilities.

Rob Higginbotham was proud to play with his son Jan and grandson Freddie who looked really great lads. ‘Each generation of the Higginbotham family is gradually getting better. ‘ He said proudly.

Robs dad must have been a terrible golfer.

Jonny Barton picked up his prize today after his ‘Maxitours shock of the year’ first ever victory two weeks ago. He got overexcited.
‘I’ve always wanted to get a prize from your car!’ He gibbered.
‘You’ve won a chill out top – do you want a navy one or a black one?’ I asked him calmly.
‘Whats the difference?’ he eagerly wanted to know.
‘One is navy and one is black.’ .

Scoring was the closest in Maxitours history today. Great to see.

Three teams were one off the pace with 84 points and four teams shared the winning score of 85 points!

Ex Copper but nice guy Neale Laurents team had the best front nine of the day with 45 points but fell away on the back nine.
Andrew Hill hits it straighter than I can point and he helped his Hazel Grove team into 3rd .

Jimmy Caffrey(17) and Kit Parkington(7) picked up 7 points on the closing hole as they finished in style. They teamed up with Colin Roberts(22) and Dave Marchant(17) who were short of players three days ago.
I had to inform them that their playing partners don’t play this well every week but new friendships were made so everyone was a winner.

Taking the honours was Dan Moore (16) Tony Jennison(4) John Hilton (14) and Richard Blackwell(12) the team struggled to 36 points on the front nine before catching fire on the back nine with a scorching 49 points- well played guys great score!!
