Results from tremendous Ringway

Posted on August 31, 2017 by tpmaxwell

Dear Maxitours player,
Many thanks for playing at Ringway Golf Club today. The ever popular Karen Gallagher kindly ran the event for me as I am on holiday with my family in Norfolk so the report is brief.

I believe there were tremendous comments from my players regarding the condition of this classic Manchester parkland course. Thanks to everyone at Ringway. Special thanks to Fiona Cornelious Ringway Golf Manager who leaves at the end of September, she has been super to deal with and is one of the best Secretaries in the country.
Well played to all the winners. See you at Lancaster on Tuesday.
Yours in Golf,

Tim

Maxitours at superb Stockport

Stockport was in really lovely condition for the latest Maxitours event . The course is one of the best in the North and Dave Stone was suitably impressed.’ I’ve never been to this neck of the woods before but I will be back- that is a great golf course’ the knowledgeable Lancaster man.

‘Absolutely fabulous’ said Dave McCallum ‘We were terrible but the course was great!’ he admitted.

The Club has spent some money on drainage and the investment was clearly paying off as many players commented on the quality of the fairways.

Thanks also to Paul and Tina and all their catering staff for looking after us so well. The hospitality at Stockport is legendary and this top Steward and his wife are really lovely to deal with.

When I run the Stockport event my registration table is set up the middle of the lounge so I get to listen to many amusing conversations that take place in the Clubhouse The huge grandfather clock in the Clubhouse rang loudly and Mick Mahons’ four balls’ conversation turned to the news that Big Ben would not be rung for 4 years due to major renovations starting this week. According to team mate Frank Hindle it is ‘Because they are building a toilet near the top of the clock for the fella that rings the bell.’
‘Why can’t he use one at the bottom like everyone else’ wondered John Farnsworth.

The first solar eclipse to cross America in 99 years takes place tomorrow. A Mick Hill chip in is an even rarer sight but he managed one in front of the Clubhouse on the tricky 16th to win some golf balls.

Pete Hamlett is doing well on the Order of Merit but by his own admission he didn’t play well today. ‘I need to get some new players on my team next week to give me a chance. In fact if I get someone to play for me can I still have the points?’ He asked optimistically.

In today’s event the scoring was incredibly close with one point separating the first five teams! Accrington’s Andy Walmsley, Peter Houston, Dave Howarth and Frank Wade took 5th place and
Koos Alders, Marc Morris, Barry Simpson, Martin Cox finished in 4th also with 84 points.

Third place went to all round nice guy Paul Gilberts(19) Hale team. Ed Jenkins(15) Neil Shepherd(7) and Colin Gillespie(17) all played well to take third spot. The best of the 84’s was Dave Woods Bramall team they came home in 45 points thanks mainly to surprise package Peter Maher(17) who picked up 5 shots for his team on the back nine. Woodsy(5) was hitting is for miles, Simon Hemsley(9) putted like Ben Crenshaw and Al Brown(19) was… Al Brown.

With their first ever Maxitours win was the low handicap Cavendish team of Phil Major(5) who works for meat supplier Danish Crown, Nick Whitehouse(6), Arron Woodward(4) and Ollie Toseland.(8) They were having an average round before scoring 2 gross birdies on the 13th, 14th and 15th holes to pick up an incredible 9 shots in three holes! They actually dropped a shot over the closing three holes but managed to hang on in to take the bacon home to Derbyshire with 85 points.- congratulations chaps!

Thanks to all who played, once again 100% attendance- I hope you had a great day!

Maxitours at stunning Sandiway

Sandiway was the glorious setting for today’s Maxitours event. The course is rated by many as the best in Cheshire and there was plenty of praise for the tremendous layout throughout the day.

Fiona the house Manager is brilliant and really great with my guys. She was described as gorgeous by more than one Maxitours player. Thanks to Fiona and all the staff for looking after us so well. PGA pro Gareth Jones is also at the top of his profession and his team made us feel very welcome.
Thanks to all players- once again absolutely nobody let me down and your 100% attendance is quite superb- brilliant.

Things also got off to a great start for portly Pete Nixon. He was expecting rain after checking his dodgy weather app and was delighted to see clear blue skies this morning. His eyes really lit up when he discovered that the new half way house was open today ‘Do they do pork pies in there? he asked as he ordered his second bacon bap.

Jack Coleman was talking to his mates in the clubhouse and he feels that there is now far too much player power for footballers in the Premiership at the moment. There is certainly not too much player power in his team however as their longest drive off the first tee just about made the fairway. Luckily Jack’s short game is world class.

Graham Kenyon models himself on Andy ‘beef ‘Johnson. He has a huge black beard which if he ever shaved it off could fill a small duvet. He had to rush on the tee as he was late due to being stuck in traffic during the long journey from his hometown Buxton ‘I was clean shaven when I set off in my car this morning!’ chuckled the Derbyshire man.

Steve Foxcroft is a lovely man with a tidy golf game. His only minor fault is that he enjoys talking me through his entire round each week. Today things hit a new low as he actually had a few photographs on his iphone to show me how close some of his approach shots were. Next week I might tell him the event is full in case he decides to bring his holiday photos.

In todays event gentle giant Dave Wainwright birdied the tough 10th to help his Hale team into 7th place.
Brian Hopkins’ Shrigley Hall team had 51 points in a tremendous front nine but the putts failed to drop and 36 points on the back nine saw them finish in 5th. Fred Greens’ well travelled team also scored 87 points, the Lancaster Golf Club man bombed some great putts around the turn to take 4th place.
The Sandiway Captain Martin Finney (13)used his local knowledge to help his team of Gary Neiles(6) and father and son Joe(15) and Paul Yates(6) take a very creditable 3rd place also on 87 points.
Sale Golf Clubs Simon Poucher(14) loves Sandiway and he could have had a memorable victory today. They dropped a shot at the last to miss out by a stroke. Brendan Leighton(16), Dave McGuiness(9) and Andy Stone(15) all played excellent golf.
Trevor Foster (+1) has finished 2nd in the Scottish seniors this season and the famous Lancashire Amatuer was on form again at Sandiway. His team recorded a record five 2’s including a vital one at the last from secret weapon Matt Mortimer(14) to record an emotional victory. Phil Mayer(10) and Andy Walmsley (8) completed the likeable Accrington team. Well played chaps- great golf.

If you think the new Callaway Epic goes a long way you may want to think again. Stuart Ford flushed his expensive new driver at last to win nearest the pin- it is only 160 yards long, slightly downhill, downwind and his ball rolled half the way. Good shot Stuart.

Maxitours at Marvellous Mere

Posted on August 7, 2017 by tpmaxwell

Maxitours at Marvellous Mere Golf and Country Club

Once again superb weather conditions greeted well over 100 maxitours competitors at the Mere golf hotel and spa.

Thanks to the lovely Karen Gallagher for helping me to run the event today as I ran a members event at Carden this morning.

Once again entry into the 2’s sweep was higher than normal when Karen is around looks like my players all struggle to say no to an attractive blonde.

Feedback regarding the presentation of golf course was excellent so many thanks to Gwen and his excellent team for all their hard work
Managers Joe Gates and Max are also terrific to deal with and help the day run smoothly.

The scoring was once again not high which is a real reflection on the integrity of the players on my tour who play with genuine handicaps -thank you.

Congratulations to the winning pair Ashton on Merseys’ likeable Gary Hempstead and Steve Priest who took the honours in perfect conditions off the yellow tees with just 43 points. Priest normally has to say a few prayers when playing with erratic Hempstead but today Gary holed more than his fair share of putts to earn an emotional first victory . Well played chaps!

It is great to see nice guy Dave McCallum win nearest the Pin. I used to coach him twenty years ago when I was at Mottram Hall and even though I was talking rubbish he always used to give me fiver tip – legend.

Thanks to all Maxitours players who supported this event- sorry the report is a little shorter than usual- busy day! Tim
