A glorious morning with a light breeze greeted the morning players in today’s Maxitours at the lovely Pleasington Golf Club.

The course was in super condition and all credit to the green keeping staff for presenting it so well. Also to the catering and bar staff serving excellent quality food throughout the day.

Scoring was good with some early groups posting some very impressive scores.

The day was littered with unusual occurrences from James Cash making an eagle 2 on the par 4 6^th to Jim Clarke’s team where Pete Ledger hit the pin on the 12^th but he must have somehow angered the golfing gods as he saw his ball ricochet into a bunker leading to an unfortunate 5 – there’s no justice in this game Pete !!!

After coming off a high of 2^nd place last week at Lancaster Steve Heywood’s team must have also angered the golfing gods as they were dragged down to earth with a bump with a low of 71 points where all 4 players somehow managed blob the 15^th – maybe best not buy your lottery ticket this week !!!

The real story of the day however goes to Mottram Hall’s Brendon Poynts who scored a Hole in 1 on the 167 yard Par 3 10^th with a perfectly struck 6 iron. He’d also been waiting on news of the arrival of his 1^st grandchild by his daughter and coincidentally within moments of his achievement he checked his phone to find out his grandson had just been born – CONGRATULATIONS ! Definitely but your lottery ticket tonight Brendon !!!

Today’s winners with a magnificent 90 points were Colin Roberts, Carl Deville, Lee Braxton and Mark Downward closely followed on 89 by Dave Buckley, Dave Carter, Graham Campbell and Tony Rooney.

Maxitours at “Sunny” Lancaster

The weather was stunning in Lancaster today. Whilst some Manchester courses were closed due to heavy rain not a single drop fell on my players and temperatures were touching 20 degrees as the sun shone all afternoon. Everyone who made the short trip up the M6 had a terrific day.

‘Those fairways are like carpets!’ announced observant Rick Shaw.
‘What a Clubhouse, what great views, What a course!’ Declared Lewis Marland.
Lancaster is a firm favourite for Maxitours golfers and I was urged to rebook for next year by plenty of players.
Thanks to Niall and all his bar staff for their terrific hospitality.

The clubhouse is an absolute cracker and it has an incredible history. James 1 held court here in 1617 and bestowed knighthoods on two of his citizens. The first St Leger was also run here and vestiges of this are still evident on the left of the 9th fairway and the 18th tee.

The final hole at Lancaster was described by the late Peter Allis as one of the finest closing holes in the country and it is loved by everyone who plays here. Everyone that is except those in Richard Blackwell’s team. They stood on the 18th tee requiring 3 points for a second place finish – they managed just 1.

Simon Ashton is known as the Gareth Southgate of Hazel Grove. His preparation is second to non. Last night they had a practice round and then stayed overnight in the Lancaster dormy house. His meticulous preparation resulted in a 4th place finish today. It was only the eight pints each they had that prevented them from winning.

The Manchester Hopwood Team of Steve Heywood(5), Dave(5) and Donna Sully(14) and Graham Davenport(10) took 2nd place with 83 points after some solid golf.

Winning first prize were the team of Darren Booth(7) from Stand, Mike Wilson(11) from Hopwood Mark Timperley(10) from Bury and Martin Lang (6)from Saddleworth. The likeable fourball have played in many events over the years but their career earnings amount to a Maxitours shirt each and a pitchfork (this was a free gift). Mike Wilson was the lethal weapon today.
‘He is incredibly handy for an old man’ Complimented team mate Lang.
Well played chaps great score on a beautiful but testing course.

Airline pilot Dave Keen hit the first shot of the day into the 18th green and his nearest the pin shot was good enough to beat the rest of the field. He takes off with the prize.

“A glorious day at a glorious venue” as one player described his experience after playing today.

The course was in superb condition with many comments about the greens and condition of the course in general.

Fraser with his catering and bar team were kept busy all day with a constant flow of hungry golfers with great quality food and drink with 5 star service as always.

Sarah Ormrod overcame her back issues and after a tentative start, as the round progressed, her back eased allowing her to finish with a superb birdie nett eagle on the Par 5 18^th which nudged her and partner Dave Greenwood into pole position on 43 points.

In 2^nd with 42 points was Simon Poucher and his 83 year partner Gordon Stow who rolled back the years proving that age is just a number. Well done Gordon !!

Scoring was exceptionally tight for other places with no fewer than 6 pairs tied for 3^rd on 41 points which then triggered count back calculations. Four pairs had 21 points each on the back 9 with it then going to who had the best last 6. Out of these 3 pairs they had 14 points each which then meant who had the best last 3 holes? Coming out on top was the pairing of Andy Buckley and Stuart Park having 8 points, Alison Shipston and James Brown next on 7 with Jim Clarke & Pete Ledger on 6.

PHEW !!! Thank you to my good friend PGA Professional Matt Turnock who worked all this out. He said he’d never known such a close result.

On the other end of the spectrum one player said of his partner “He had no issues at all hitting the woods, it was getting out of them that was the problem”.

Maxitours at gorgeous Hazel Grove

Hazel Grove was incredibly good today. If you are thinking of a ‘day out’ I can highly recommend this Cheshire jewel. Nearly everyone who handed their scorecard in told me how terrific the course was – congratulations to head green keeper Vincent Jenson and his staff.

An old friend of mine Martin Swindells runs the catering at hazel grove and he always provides first class hospitality – thanks Martin.

John Cunningham doesn’t get out much. The new handicap system is a mystery to him.
‘Do you know what. I played on two courses in Wales last week and my handicap was different both days!’
You don’t say John.

Welshman Dave Cooper was smiling after Wales victory over Turkey last night. He thinks they might win the Euros.
‘We’ve won the six nations and now the football! ‘
Well, the Welsh certainly didn’t win the golf today Dave.

There were 4 teams staring at last place with 72 points. Everyone was delighted when Andy Moon’s team came in with a paltry 66 points. ‘We are literally over the moon‘ Declared Dave Sully.

The course was set up for the Club Championship so pins were tucked away. This didn’t stop on form Simon Hemsleys team from scoring a solid 86 points first thing this morning.

Jim Clarke(11), Chris Clarke(10) Pete Ledger(16) and Graham Jackson(10) have lost their winning feeling in the last 12 months. The once deadly quartet have hit a brick wall and it is rumoured team captain Jim has hired a motivational speaker. They finally clicked today and were delighted with 88 points.

Today’s shock winners were The Bramall Park team of Peter Maher(16), Gary Phillips(16), Nigel Hall (8) and Charlie Beadle(16). These are lovely guys but in recent months they have regularly featured near the bottom half of the leaderboard. Nigel and Gary both birdied the 6th to get the team moving with an eight point bonus.

Well played guys great golf.
Thanks to everyone for your 100% attendance yet again.

I require a partner for a pairs pro am at Mottram Hall this Tuesday. Please let me know if you fancy a game with me! £100 Entry.
