Maxitours at Lymm

Lymm golf course just keeps getting better and better. Reports from all players were excellent as the pure Lymm greens were the talk of the clubhouse. Congratulations to new head green keeper Rob Cooper who is doing a fine job. Chair of green Andrew Cox is incredibly pround.

It is also great to catch up with head pro Steve McCarthy and his assistant Fizz. They are the heartbeat of this club and are loved by all.

The upper part of the course is raised as it was built on the soil taken out of the Manchester ship canal and this part always plays firm and fast. The contrast between the lusher lower holes is excellent and makes for a very interesting test of golf.

Never lend Paul Ashley your golf shoes. Pete Keena had a two week-old pair he had just worn in and he kindly lent them to his playing partner. Paul disappeared after attempting an optimistic wedge shot from the ditch at the last. When he reappeared, he looked like a drowned rat. Pete’s shoes were black.

Chris Hoesli from Huddersfield played today. He loved coming back to the Club where he was the first ever junior captain in 1975. His name sits proudly on the honours board. As a nice touch today he wore the same schoolboy shorts he wore 50 years ago.

In todays event scoring was close. Wychwoods Paul Price, Pete Keena, Nigel Edwards and soggy Paul Ashley were 4th on 86 pts pipped by Clitheroe Seniors Simon Raine, Roland Horridge, Philip Cort and Denis Greenup.

Gary Neiles is still waiting for a win. His team of Martyn Molyneaux, Gavin Connor and John Longworth were leading form much of the day with 87 points before late in the day Hazel Grove’s Dave Stewardson(8), Dave Cain(8), Steve Todd(11) and Mark Redfern(5) beat them on a card play off with 45 points on their closing nine holes. Excellent.

Thanks to Matt for running my day so efficiently before I took over late in the day.

Yours in golf
