Results from the Mere Golf and Country Club.

The Mere golf and country club was in superb condition for the final Maxitours event of the summer tour. The ‘refreshing’ drizzle didn’t dampen the players spirits and this great golf course was in top condition. Mark Boler and his greenstaff can be proud of the tremendous greens which got nothing but praise all day.

The venue is a playground for the rich and famous, at lunchtime Mere member Sir Alex Fergusson nearly choked on his bacon bap and hid behind his newspaper in the corner of the atrium as he caught sight of Roberto Mancini savouring a fresh pasta dish, complimented with a fine glass of Italian white wine.

When The Mere comes up on the Maxitours rota most players give their shoes an extra polish, comb their hair and put on their smartest golfing outfit. Kevin Barker bucked the trend today as he wore perhaps the worst sweater ever seen at a maxitours event. However this didn’t stop him making great pars on the 5th and 7th holes on his way to a respectable 35 points.

Willie Morgan became the latest Manchester United legend to play on Maxitours and he teamed up with Vale Royal owner Steve Graham. It was Graham who did most of the work appearing on the card 12 times. A birdie on the short twelfth was the highlight of his magical round. ‘The first time I got on the card was when it dropped out of our partners pocket and I trod on it by mistake’ said 8 handicapper Morgan. The home team picked up first prize with their tremendous 44 points.

Gary Garner continued his rich vein of form once again finishing second as he scored an excellent 43 points partnering Mark Green. Mytton Folds Ray Standing and Gary Davies, Andy Cunningham and Roger Percival from Lymm, Paul Granelli and Jonathon Brett from Mere all scored an excellent 42 points in the damp conditions.

Last match in was Kenny Jepsons happy go lucky group of four, ‘Any good wee man?’ asked scotsman Willie Morgan anxiously waiting to collect his first prize. He nearly fell off his chair when Kenny declared both pairs had scored a total of 48 points. ‘I had 22 with my partner and the other two had 26’ smiled Jepson with that famous twinkle in his eye.

Many thanks for supporting today’s event.

The Colin Roberts Classic at Conwy

The sun was cracking the flags at fantastic Conwy today. Despite poor weather in Manchester the Maxitours golfers who travelled the short distance down the coast enjoyed blue skies and classic blustery links conditions.

‘Those greens were superb-they must the best in Wales ’ said Andy Hall an intelligent policeman from Cheadle.

European Tour caddy James Baker yesterday helped Jamie Donaldson to yet another top ten finish in the Portuguese Open, today he relished playing on the tough seaside challenge. ‘This is proper golf’ he said ‘this would really sort out the boys on tour’. Playing alongside his dad, best friend James Davidsion and Ollie Wilson his Tytherington team recorded a superb 75 points which was always going to be tough to beat.

Maxitours regular Alan Clough was a celebrity in the 1970’s and he used to walk around his home town of Cheadle Hulme in his flares proudly showing off his BBC Motocross Trophy, today he was famously ‘scrambling’ around the Conwy course helping his Hazel Grove team get a respectable 70 points.

Ian George, Jim Cox, Dave Collinson and Steve Dunphy- the not so good looking but talented golfing quartet from Denton , teamed up well and were delighted with 74 points and an excellent second place finish.

The competitive Shrigley Hall team had another high finish as they scored 73 points for 3rd place, ‘its not fair we could have won if my handicap was higher’ complained ex marine Stubbens.

The strong wind was enjoyed by all the competitors and Roy Bramwell rolled back the years as the 75 year old incredibly hit a drive and a 7 iron onto the downwind par 5 sixteenth, unfortunately on the previous hole which played into the wind Roy hit a drive and 7 iron shots before he reached the green.

Tony Lowe looked very windswept as he staggered into the clubhouse ‘the last time I felt wind like that was when I jumped out of an aeroplane for charity’ said the Sale member.

Incredibly out of a field of 84 talented players nobody managed to par the long 5th hole ‘it was bloody ridiculous’ said Bernard McDonald as he staggered into the clubhouse.

The course was playing so tough it was suggested that instead of having a twos sweep a threes sweep may be more suitable. A two was no problem however for Ian Ainsworth who celebrated his 70th birthday by chipping in on the 15th hole. Millionaire Joe Kirwan also recorded tremendous 2’s on the 2nd and 18th holes however he failed to enter the sweep due to the uncertainty in the current economic climate.

Joe did however win nearest the pin on the 2nd hole.

Many thanks to all who played today on this world class links. A big thank-you to Colin Roberts for his sponsorship of todays event.

Maxitours at Pleasington

It had rained for forty days and forty nights in Blackburn but the Pleasington course was in great condition for todays Maxitours event.

The course was a delight for the many birdwatchers and trainspotters amongst the Maxitours players. Brian Hopkins kept a lookout for the resident peregrine falcons as he searched for Alan Pengellys ball deep in the shrubs on the 7th hole.

Trainspotter Steve Gill jotted down a couple of engine numbers as playing partner Chris Meikleham nearly hit the 8.45 commuter train to Bury with a vicious hook as he played the 5th hole. A few holes later a big slice sent Chris’ ball over the railway fence once again, this time his ball narrowly missing the 10.45 to Blackpool .

The scoring was excellent all day, Ray Massey playing with Paul Woodcock hit a majestic nine iron to three feet to set up a birdie on the 18th hole and Gary Garner playing with his big hitting son David hit his 7 iron even closer as both players helped their pairings to record 44 points.

‘Carpet Bob Kwan’ (who is not as daft as he looks) whilst selling unsuspecting punter Andrew Westwell a quality carpet last year, discovered he was a scratch player at Pleasington. A little light came on in Bobs head- ‘this is the man for me!’ thought Bob.

Kwan sold Andy a top of the range carpet but more importantly he persuaded him to play with him in todays event. The two combined superbly and Kwans birdies on the 5th and 16th holes backed up the classy Westwells sparkling golf as both players recorded their first maxitours win with a wonderful 45 points. Well played chaps.

On form Rob Weston and Trevor Webb from Knutsford were on fire for twelve holes however an average finish saw the likeable grey haired double act just scrape into the top ten.

All todays players were entered into the two’s sweep and this caused Neville Dennis and Alan Clough to get over-excited as they waited to hear what the reward would be as they both recorded perhaps the first twos of their career. Alan sat near the recording table for most of the afternoon and looked devastated each time a two was registered, ‘Bloody hell -how many balls am I going to get now?’ he sniffed.

Big Neville Dennis left several answer phone messages as my phone kept ringing on the drive home. ‘as everyone finished?’ ‘ow many twos was thee?’ ‘ow many balls will ah git?’ ‘where the hell are ya!’ pestered local legend Neville.

Ross Birch, Moby Rawthore, John Davies, Paul Bradley, Andy Lawman and Dave Bowers all played well to be in the prizes.

Many thanks to all who supported todays event.

Nearest the Pin on the 10th was won by Dave Bowers and nearest the pin on the 16th was won by Barry Eddlestone both receive 1 dozen AD333s.
