Maxitours at Vale Royal

Despite a mixed weather forecast the rain held off for most of the day and only the last five groups enjoyed the challenge of exhilarating wind and rain.

‘The course was superb considering the overnight rain’ said Mick Mahon ‘

‘Those greens were excellent’ reported Phil Smeathers.

Many thanks to Ian Embury and his five star Vale Royal team for their superb attention and service throughout the day, this is a top class venue.

Sixty five year old Tommy Thompson played in his first ever Maxitours event today and it was very interesting to watch his warm up routine before play. As he came out of the Gents he tripped over a step before doing a graceful forward roll down the Vale Royal corridor.

Barry Jackson lives 40 minutes away from the Vale Royal and Sandiway golf courses. He has got away with telling his Mrs that he is staying overnight in nearby Chester (25 minutes away) so he can prepare correctly for the two day event. Yeah, right.

The latest Maxitours Order of Merit is available to view on my website http://www.maxitoursgolf.com . Tiger Woods has surprisingly just dropped out of the Official world’s top 100 for the first time since 1996, he was number 1 in the world for 683 weeks. Less of a shock is the fact that Geoff Underhill has also dropped out of the top 100 in the Shotsaver Order of Merit after he reached a career high of 96th two weeks ago.

In today’s event Knutsford’s David Kelly was in a negative frame of mind before play. ‘Great- we have got three chances to come last this week’ he complained looking with little hope at his teammates ‘last today, last tomorrow or last overall!’

Despite this very harsh criticism some terrific golf from the ageless Bob Sutton(19), Nigel Eckersley(11) and Big Dave Harlow(15) saw them overjoyed to be sitting in 3rd place going into tomorrow.

The Wigan team led by Phil Dermott lead the 2 Day event with an excellent 82 points in tough conditions. Neville Dennis’ team is second with 77 points closely followed by three teams on 76 points led by their Captains Bob Sutton, Colin Roberts and Paul Lowe. Simon McCoy nearly had an albatross when his 3 wood on the par 4 twelfth hit the flag. He casually tapped in from 2 inches for his eagle.

The Spring Classic will conclude tomorrow at Sandiway with 12 teams eligible to win the 2 day prize. There will also be the usual great prizes and Order of Merit points for the one day event. (Teams can only win 1 prize)

Thanks for your support,

Roll on Summer,

Tim

Maxitours at Windy Prestbury

A full field of talented players enjoyed one of the finest golf courses in the North West today. Despite heavy overnight rain the free draining fairways were superb. There were plenty of rosy cheeks but not a hint of any mud on any of the windswept golfers as they cheerfully entered the clubhouse after play.

I trained as an assistant professional at Prestbury when I was a fresh faced 18 year old. I would lose most of my £20 a week wage playing against the other two professionals. I would then spend what was left on Mars bars as I twiddled my thumbs in the pro shop. I do have great memories of those times and the members were very good to me indeed and I always enjoy returning to this great Club.
After play at last week’s Maxitours event, huge Everton fan Jim Rymer was very chirpy when he announced he was about to go home and watch the only remaining British team in Europe. The posh scouser was a little quieter than normal this week after his boys took one hell of a beating in Ukraine. He is watching Masterchef with his wife tonight.

The players had to contend with very testing blustery conditions and this led to several wild tee shots from Barney Ross. As he searched for his golf ball in yet another hedgerow he noticed that even Wayne Rooney’s hair looked slightly ruffled by the wind as the footballer watched on with interest from a neighbouring garden. ‘It’s in dose bushes over dare mate!’ informed the on-form striker.

Last weekend it took Liverpool’s Steven Gerard less than fifty seconds to let down his team mates. It took Andy Hallows even less time than that to let his team mate Tony Coleman down today. His first tee shot disappeared into the rough and this set the tone for his disappointing performance.

In today’s event there was a large spread of scores as the windy conditions and the undulating tree lined course baffled many of the more easily confused members of the tour.

Ex-Marine Andy Stubbens(5) and scaffolder Martin Firth(4) recorded six birdies between them as the big hitting Tytherington men made the most of the shortened course to finish in 5th place with 42 points.

Alsager nice guys Colin Roberts(17) and John Rigby(13) continue to surprise many people, including themselves, as they recorded another top four finish with 42 points.

Newly married Simon Conway(9) teamed up with Hazel Grove’s Vince Coombs(16) and an opening birdie by Conway was the springboard his best finish of the season. ‘I feel like the luckiest man on earth!’ he added in a repeat of his wedding speech. ‘I’m having a great honeymoon period’ Their 43 points earned them third place.

Didsbury supermodel Annie White(15) nearly became the first female Maxitours winner for three years as she teamed up with Paul Dalby (2) to score 44 points and finish in 2nd position. Annie did her Larry Mize impression when she dramatically chipped in on her last hole, over the bunker from the left of the par three 10th hole.

Winning a pairs event today for the first time in their golfing careers were Andy Hockenhull(16) and Johnnie Walker(9) from Tytherington. Very honest car salesman Hockenhull knows how to close a deal and he certainly closed out the back nine when he majestically parred the tough closing four holes. Johnnie steadied the ship late on when Andy started to hyperventilate with the excitement of it all. 44 points was good enough to take the honours today. Well played chaps.

Maxitours at Crystal Clear Caldy

Another full field enjoyed the superb playing conditions at Caldy Golf Club. Today’s European Tour event at Madiera was delayed due to strong winds however the gentle breeze and soaring temperatures provided perfect golfing weather in this lovely oasis in the North West of England. Anyone who didn’t enjoy their game today needs to pay a visit to their nearest golf psychologist.

All the staff at Caldy were tremendous to deal with, the only slight hiccup on the day was the fact that there had been a flood overnight when a pipe burst in the club’s entrance hall. There was a sign warning Maxitours players to be aware of the uneven surface as they checked in. There were no certainly uneven surfaces on the Caldy greens however and the course was in exceptionally good order.

In the clubhouse the Caldy chef is now a new contender for bacon butty of the year award, the super soft baps and crispy bacon hit the right notes with piano playing Les French.

Rob Weston entered a team for this event four months ago before unfortunately putting himself out of action when he damaged his achilles tendon. Although unable to play he thoughtfully drove all the way to Caldy to have breakfast with his team and walk a few holes so he could give them plenty of advice and moral support. Unfortunately after his Knutsford team picked up just one point on the first hole he decided to return to the clubhouse to have another bacon bap and finish off the Telegraph crossword instead.

Man City fan Joe Kirwan’s(4) week of football despair turned to golfing joy with four birdies in a world class performance today. He teamed up with new friends John Royle(17), Ian Acton(14) and Gary Jones(17) to finish in a very respectable 4th place.

Martin Edmunds(11) got very little sympathy from his team during registration. When he discovered he was starting on the 4th hole (which has the beautiful estuary closely guarding the left side of the fairway) he looked worried. ‘Oh no- thats my bogey hole!’ he announced. ‘Thats not quite true’ said pal Peter Kenny(13) ‘It’s usually your triple bogey hole, a bogey is a very good score for you on any hole.’ he added.

Despite the verbal abuse from his team the Heswall member actually started with a birdie and used his local knowledge to help the Wirral based posh scousers take a career best third place with 81 points. Mick King(18) and Andrew Morgan(6) completed the strange talking team.

It has been four and a half years since the last solar eclipse, it’s been longer than that since Ben Luscombe(14) won a prize. Playing alongside the famous and wealthy Hale estate agent John Hilditch(11), lawyer Geoff Underhill(15) and property developer Iain Bartholomew(3) the sun shone down on his golf today and he was delighted to finish in 2nd place just a single point behind the winners.

Winning the Caldy classic were the lovely senior team of Colin Roberts(18), Dave Marchant(15) Bob Sinclair (14)and keen carpenter John Rigby(14).
Rigby has struggled for years with a slice but things took a turn for the worse when he shook hands with his circular saw in his workshop two months ago. He sliced off three fingertips and has been out of action for 2 months. In a Cinderella type story Rigby played in his first event back today and his more relaxed grip saw him hit a consistent draw. ‘It’s a fairytale ending ‘ said the popular seventy year old. ‘I’m thinking of doing the same thing to my good hand next week, I might play even better’.

Many thanks to all players for your terrific attendance once again. Yours in golf, Tim.

Maxitours at rather warm Ringway

The warmest day of the year so far in Manchester ensured a great days golf was enjoyed by all players. Many thanks to all at Ringway Golf Club for their superb hospitality this season.

There was a huge traffic jam outside the Golf Course which caused some players to be delayed a little. I had several highly strung golfers ring my mobile before play to let me know they may be late for today’s shotgun start.

‘I don’t care about missing my tee time’ said a distraught Jim Hodges ‘I just want to know what time the chef stops serving his bacon baps?’

In today’s event Ex Manchester United footballers Frank Stapleton and Stuart Pearson look like they could go another season without any silverware as they finished in a lowly 13th place. Highly paid Team manager Dave ‘Van’ Wilson is refusing to take the blame for some very poor tactical decisions.

Top American golfer Dustin Johnson has returned to form with a great win this week after a six month enforced absence from golf due to his wild lifestyle. It is rumoured that Ferrari driving nice guy Colin Lynch also has a rock and roll lifestyle but he claims his 6 month absence from the game was due purely to the cold weather in his native Bolton. Unlike the big hitting American the break did not help Colin’s game and his team ‘rolled’ over and finished ‘rock’ bottom with 65 points.

Despite the traffic jams Davyhulme accountant Chris Wrighton(17) and his highly intelligent team were ‘queuing’ up to make birdies on the golf course and they were delighted to finish in 5th place with 80 points.

It was great to see a couple of ladies enjoying Maxitours events. Attractive Christine Kelsall(21) from Pleasington played in her husband’s team today. It is very obvious that John(11) is used to punching well above his weight both on and off the course and his excellent performance guided his team to a fourth place finish with 81 points.

Popular Maxitours character Roy Ainsworth(25) and his veteran team of Mike Verdon(15), Brian Ankers(15) and nine handicapper Peter Heald (the oldest single figure player at Lymm GC) enjoyed the firm Ringway fairways and a strong back nine meant that they were delighted to finish in third place also with 81 points.

Second place went to stunning Annie White(15) and her less attractive teammates Paul Dalby(3), Phil Vokes(3) and Barney Ross(4) who scored a solid 82 points. Barney’s eagle on the long 10th hole collected four points for the Didsbury quartet to give them a timely mid round boost.

Winning today for the second time this Winter season was 78 year old legend Neville Dennis(17). After overcoming a very serious illness last year Neville is now back to his best and he led his senior team of Frank Massey(12), Jimmy O’Reilly(9) and Alan Leigh(15) to an emotional victory. Hollywood movie stars are rumoured to be closely monitoring Neville’s epic fightback.
Well played chaps!

Many thanks to all players for your support today, once again EVERY player on last night’s start sheet played in today’s event, brilliant. Yours in golf, Tim.
