Room for 1 team at Mottram Hall NEXT THURSDAY and room for 1 team at Crosland Heath on Thursday 28th November
Maxitours at super Shrigley
Huge thanks to Shrigley Hall for standing in so late in the day. The golf course was immaculate and the greens were terrific. Thanks to Golf Manager Andy- brilliant.
‘That is a great venue.’ Declared John Cross ‘My team loved it out there!’
There were clear blue skies first thing this morning before some fog rolled in during the morning tee times.
‘I’m a bit worried Tim.’ Admitted Roy Ainsworth.
‘If visibility drops to less than 130 yards I wont be able to see where my Driver lands.’
Seventeen teams enjoyed the stunning putting surfaces- how they get the greens that good in November is beyond me.
‘I’m delighted I played today – my missus wanted to go shopping and that was the other option. That was never going to happen.’ Confessed James Stringer.
That reminded me of a story from Maxitours regular Joe Kirwan a couple of years ago who told me he was dragged into Marks and Spencers for some Christmas shopping but was delighted to find a huge mirror where he could work on his backswing. He looked around the store to locate his wife only to see another bloke doing the same thing in a different mirror. Love it.
Scoring was good today as the course is absolutely no push over.
Roy Ainsworth, Dave Hanson, Robbie Blair and Tom Keeling took 3rd lace with 86 points. This was equalled by Heyrose legend Steve Blakeway playing with Neil Evans, John Cross and Dave Greenwood who take 2nd on the card play off.
Winning today with 87 points and receiving a two shot handicap reduction after an impressive recent run of results were Maxitours regulars Andy Hamlett, Steve Austin, Richard Blackwell and Gary Smith. These four are brilliant guys who play in the right spirit and have found a rich vein of form. Last year they struggled but something has really clicked over the past two months. Well played chaps.
