Maxitours at brilliant Bramhall

Bramhall Golf Club keep raising the bar. The members are already blessed with a tremendous clubhouse but other improvements are taking place all the time. The paths around the course look great and new indoor range facilities look tremendous. This is a brilliant club and a real pleasure to play.

‘They are probably the best fairways in Cheshire!’ Observed Prestburys Graeme Grieve after enjoying his golf round today.

‘They must fertilize these fairways and greens- they are like carpets’ Observed Saddleworths wealthiest member, Dave Rhodes.

Martin Humphries was also full of praise. ‘I love this course! Its my favourite venue of the year.’ The well-travelled dedicated golfer declared after his round.

Pros tip of the week: Keep away from Andy Oakes.

Andy won his one and only major at Prestbury last week and will talk you through every hole if you mention it. I made the fatal mistake at check in and after five minutes the queue was backing up towards the entrance door. As the bar maid locked up tonight he bent down under the shutters and asked her if she had heard about his victory.

Nigel Ashton’s golf has been on the crest of a slump in recent weeks but today the charismatic ex headmaster enjoyed his new 7 wood. His team recorded a season best 4th place finish. Likeable Stu Rogers birdied the 1st hole to get the team moving nicely.

Bramhall Captain John Pacey is a lovely man and we were honoured to have him playing today. The two handicapper helped Simon Hemsley, Joe Kirwan and Ian King take 3rd spot.

Prestburys Chris Adams(9), Richard Johnson(13), Nick Hargreaves(90 and Andy ‘just the one major’ Oakes(5) took 2nd place. Andy continued his excellent form collecting three 2’s in a round of just 69 shots. Quality.

Winning today was Kevin Hart(9), Mark Foley(5), lower tier football manager Karl Marginson(8) and Paul Yearsley (9). Yearsley has lost three stone in recent weeks but he ate up the Bramhall course today to give the team a hard-earned victory on a breezy but beautiful golf course. Thanks to everyone for your 100% attendance today. Superb. Tim
