Maxitours www.designerradiatorsdirect.co.uk AMAM at Sandiway

A stunning day for golf greeted over 100 Maxitours golfers at Sandiway today.
Once again we were made to feel very welcome by this wonderful club.

The magical weather also produced some magical shots.
First Jim O’Driscoll holed his second shot for an eagle on the stroke index one 7th hole, then Phil Lockett holed his approach shot to win nearest the Pin in two on the par four 8th hole. Finally the unlikely figure of Bob Sutton could be seen happily picking his ball out of the 18th hole after a superb hole in one.

Tony Wilson rarely gives his team mates compliments however today he congratulated team mate Frank Hindle on an excellent front nine- ‘Frank was brilliant he really kept us in it early on today -mind you he was rubbish for the other 27 holes’ he quickly added.

In the two day event the scoring was very close indeed with Eddy Sterling, Dave Blood and Pete Short’s team all finishing just short on 162 after two solid rounds. Chris Hegarty(8), Paul Bennett(11), Graham(10) and Malcolm Brownhill(12) had the round of the day with a superb 86 point haul which moved them up into a second place finish.

Pie connoisseurs Des Kelly(16), Phil Lockett(8), Pete Hall (4)and Hetash Patel(20) led overnight and after a solid start they started to feel the heat on the back nine. A tremendous Lockett birdie at the last calmed the nerves and they enjoyed their victory over a post round pint of San Miguel or two.

Many thanks to all players for supporting my first two day event, the event proved to be a big success and looks set to be repeated next year.

Thanks also to the event sponsor Jonathon Lynch who not only supported the event but played great golf this week.

Maxitours at Stockport www.designerradiatorsdirect.com AM AM

Day one of the fantastic two day AM AM at Stockport and Sandiway saw well over 100 competitors playing the superb Stockport Golf Club in lovely warm bright conditions.

Overnight rain had left some Saharan sand deposits on players cars which arrived from the African desert on the warm Southerly wind. Iain Perkins added a bit more sand to the atmosphere as he struggled to get out of the bunker on the 16th.

Head Golf Pro Gary Norcott advised us before play that there may be the odd wet patch on the course but Maxitours players found the exact opposite and they were very impressed with the Cheshire gem. Big Jim Driscoll said that there were no occasions when he saw any casual water. ‘He’s carrying so much weight on a dry day he can take his normal stance in the car park and water comes over his shoes’ remarked playing partner Frank Massey.

In today’s event the benign conditions saw some excellent golf. Colin Lynch usually only gets a Maxitours mention due to the fact he has a salmon pink Ferrari, his Lambourghini driving son sponsored today’s event and this inspired the cheerful Lancastrian to play some of the best golf of his career. Teaming up alongside Lewis Birch and Adam Swarbrick they took the daily prize with a solid 85 points.

Talented Colin is with another team tomorrow and so unfortunately he is ineligible for the main 36 hole prize.

In pole position is the Des Kelly team from Poulton Park with 84 points, Dave Blood’s team from Denton is in second place with 82 points. Swinton Park ’s Pete O’Neill and Eddy Sterling from Wychwood Park have ordered their teams to have an early night as they are just four shots off the early pace.

Colin Roberts Alsager team (76 points) face a sleepless night as they attempt to win the seniors prize tomorrow.

Bob Sutton and Ron Sloanes teams nearly made Maxitours history by failing to make the cut but due to the new Maxitours 20 shot rule (within 20 shots of the leaders) they narrowly made the grade.

Last few spots for one or both days in the ‘DESINGNERRADIATORSDIRECT’ AMAM at Stockport this Monday £25 and Sandiway this Tuesday £25! (see below for times) Mere Golf and Country Club Thurs 10th April- spaces Dunham Forest Thurs 17th –last few spaces Conwy Monday 21st -spaces Maxitours at blossoming Ringway The first Maxitours event of the Spring saw the fabulous Ringway Golf Club bathed in glorious sunshine this morning. The freshly mown golf course looked a real picture and was a credit to their talented grounds staff. With Mothers Day just around the corner wild swinging author Dave Wilson was literally smelling the flowers during his round today. He was to be seen regularly inspecting the local daffodils as the vast majority of his drives missed the generous parkland fairways. Anton Ellis brought a group of old friends from Knutsford Golf Club with him to Ringway. With a combined age of 302 the team members were delighted to not only finish their round but to finish their round with the same ball they started with. ‘Unfortunately we don’t hit it far enough to lose our balls anymore’ said an upbeat Ellis. It is widely accepted that the three greatest sporting comebacks of all time were Botham’s Ashes in 1981, followed by Liverpool’s Champions league win against AC Milan in 2005 and then the Ryder Cup miracle at Medinah in 2012. This top three was challenged today however when Neville Dennis returned to the sporting arena after two serious operations and seven months away from the game. Seventy seven year old Neville rolled back the years and also rolled in three wonderful net birdies to help his team take fourth place and seal the Maxitours seniors prize. His legendary golfing status is now fully confirmed. Another Maxitours player rolling back the years was John Hilton. He always either signs his scorecard quietly in the car park or by the results desk where there is always a healthy supply of writing utensils. As he walked into the Clubhouse after his round John was quick to spot Gemma the attractive blond waitress (who is a firm favourite amongst many Maxitours players) and made an impressively quick diversion to the bar ‘excuse me love have you got a pen I could borrow?’ he smoothly asked, closely followed up with his best movie star smile. The early starters made the most of the pleasant sunny conditions and Airline pilot Dave Keen(13) helped his Bramall teammates Charlie Rooney(14), Ian King(8) and Russell Humphries(19) take third place with 82 points. Paul Dalby(3), Phil Vokes(2), Barney Ross(3) and Paul Sherlock(5) were in the fourth match out and their 84 points led the field for most of the afternoon. Winning today however were the likeable and ever-present low handicap Tytherington team of Andy Stubbens(4), Martin Firth(6), Gareth Lover(7) and their secret weapon -‘dangerous Andy Hockenhull.(19)’ The affable high handicapper usually has plenty of wild shots in his locker. Today he had the round of his life as he rolled in three long birdie putts to secure a resounding victory (and also a resounding Maxitours handicap reduction.) Great golf chaps, very well played indeed. Many thanks for your support to all who played today and also thanks to Ringway Club Manager Fiona Cornelious and renowned Club Professional Nick Ryan for their valuable help and expertise. Yours in Golf, Tim.
