Dear Maxitours players

After very heavy overnight rain the 6th and 16th holes at Warrington are closed and their are 3 temporary greens.

Play is from fairways and apart from the rain the course is in excellent condition.

If you cant play please let me know as soon as possible

Thanks

Tim

Thanks to Keith Thompson from Clarion Wealth Planning for his continued support of Maxitours golf events. Maxitours is proud to be associated with Clarion’s incredibly high levels of professionalism and integrity.

Below is the Final Clarion Wealth Planning Summer Tour Oder of Merit.

Huge congratulations to Dave Sarsfield from Saddleworth who held on to his lead despite intense pressure from Sandiway’s Gary Neiles over the closing events. Jim Caldwell and Dave Rhodes finished close behind in 3rd place.
It was nice to see Colin Roberts who played in the inaugural Maxitours event 19 years ago finish in the top ten.

Thanks to everyone for your unrivalled class and sportsmanship throughout the season.

Maxitours at magnificent North Manchester Golf Club

It was great to return to North Manchester after a fifteen year break. There are exciting times ahead for this Club as the state of the art Clubhouse will open in early 2027. It looks amazing.

The course was playing tough, overnight rain, cool conditions and a strong breeze made it a very stern test of golf. Players were really impressed by the layout and we will be back next Summer to experience the course at its very best.

I’ve not seen Club Pro Jason Peel for fifteen years . He’s a top lad and well loved by all is peers. His hair was showing plenty of grey and there was a little more chubbiness to his smile than I remember. It’s incredible how some guys age yet I still manage to look exactly the same as I did thirty years ago.

Dave More’O’Farrells wife Collette loves me. We’ve never actually met but every now and then Dave brings me homemade pies and cakes she has made for me. They are incredible. Tandoori sausage rolls today followed by lemon drizzle cake was to die for. Thanks Mrs O.

There was romance in the air today. Steve and Janet Heywood were married on 28th October 1989. Things were a bit tight but they saved up and held their reception at North Manchester golf Club. Exactly 36 years to the day they were back at North Manchester Golf Club, still happily married and enjoying playing Maxitours golf with each other. Brilliant.

Barry Caldwell is a relatively new Maxitours player and entered a team into all the Summer fixtures. The team are all single players but have been frustrated by a lack of success. Today was their day. In possibly the strongest wind experienced all season his team had a solid 79 points to take first place.

Caldwell lives near St Helens and his company makes reinforced glass for barges. His talented team cruised to a four stroke victory. Well played chaps.

Bramhall’s Ian King, Andy Hagan, Andy Dean and Mark Grahamslaw took 2nd with 75 points pipping Sandiways John McGee, Martin Molyneaux and John Colquitt into 3rd spot.

Thanks to everyone for your support,

Yours in golf, Tim

Maxitours at delightful Davyhulme

Another big bullet was dodged today as storm Benjamin skirted Manchester and my players had a glorious day on an excellent golf course.

Davyhulme Park is an incredibly friendly club and it is always a pleasure to visit the impressive clubhouse which is steeped in history.

‘I like playing here!’ Declared knowledgeable Martin Humphries. ‘The course is as flat as a pancake but really interesting.’

‘That was a lovely day. It’s a pleasure walk around here. It’s good at my age not to have to negotiate any hills. Its flatter than a witches txx, but a really, really great test.’ Reported insightful Dave Singleton.

Club pro Maryn Hamer was a fine player and has now turned himself into a highly respected coach and club professional. It’s always great to chat to him about how lucky we are to have the life of a golf pro . He looks after us really well.

Scoring was tough on a golf course which was playing long due to recent rainfall. Jon Hudsons Bramall Park team took 3rd with 82 points. Mike Hill, 81 year old Rob Blain and Rob Hughes completed the on-form quartet.

Bramhall’s Ian King teamed up with Andy Dean, Andy Hagan and Andy Wisedale took 2nd place to record his best finish for years with an impressive 84 points.

Winning today were the Yorkshire quartet of Rob Platt(5), Darren Wilson(5), Tom Barstow(9) and Tom Broadhead(11) who recorded an excellent 86 points. All the best scores were recorded by the early groups who made the most of the calm conditions before the wind picked up later in the day.

Thanks to everyone for getting round in 4 hours – that is superb and really helps everyone’s enjoyment of the day.

Yours in golf, Tim

Next event Davyhulme 23rd October -Full

Maxitours at Super Stockport !!!

Thank you PGA Professional Matt Turnockfor running todays’ event so efficiently:
A calm but slightly overcast day with some very brief breakouts of sun created a pleasant playing experience for today’s event.
The course was in excellent condition especially the greens that were running fast and true.
Scoring was therefore very good with the benign conditions and receptive greens meaning many players making multiple 2’s with Kevin Cunliffe and Michael McPherson being the best of the bunch making an incredible 3 of them each.
Dave Rhodes thought he had hit the shot of the day with a stunning approach on the 18th to just 9 inches only to discover that Paul Manning had miraculously holed his approach with an 8 iron earlier in the day to deny him. On another day Dave !!!!!!!
It was tight at the top with three teams tied on 88 points but today’s winners taking advantage of their home course knowledge on an incredible 89 points were Simon Raines, Steve Hughes, Michael McPherson and Martin Keates. Congratulations !!!!
Big thanks as usual to my good friend PGA Professional Matt Turnock for running the day.
