Today was a very fine day indeed to play Amverton Cove. The course was in very nice condition, in spite of all the rain we had over the last couple of days. Always a good and quiet course to play with the necessary challenges. The fairways were well maintained as were the greens. They became better as the day progressed because of drying up. 

The weather was very friendly with an overcast sky and not too much sun.

The scores also showed good play and that we enjoyed ourselves. Ricardo ended as third with 37 points. Jan tried hard but his 40 points were not good enough to beat David Cheung who was the winner with 41 (!!) points. With these results, David Cheung is the Monthly winner with an impressive best 2 games of 83 followed by Ricardo Castro with 74, and in third place Chia with 72 points. For the LCOTY annual competition, Ricardo cemented his first position with 118 points followed by Bipan Kapur, Iain Wise, and Helmut Dicknoether all with 48 points. Javed Malik played his third game so two more and he will be a full member.

After the game, we had a very good lunch, the dishes ordered by Andrew, at I Suka (which means I Love, I learned on the way), accompanied by some good beers.

Next week Bukit Beruntung, don’t forget to read our blog, book your 2023 LC shirt, and sign up for Ipoh away games.

CARTOON OF THE MONTH.

Back to the beautiful Nilai Springs with 9 of us, playing Mango and Pines nines. Some of the fairways were quite soggy but overall were playable with nice, tricky, and fast greens. The weather was quite overcast with some dark clouds but we only had rain for 20 min on holes 6 and 7 Pines nine. The winner today was Chia with an excellent 95 for 37 points, followed by our guest Uwe Lukas with 100 for 32 points and in third place was Helmut with 99 for 30 points. With these results August competition saw Chia jump straight to first place with 72 points followed closely by David Cheung with 71 and Ricardo and Helmut with 68 and 66 respectively, so quite interesting will be the Amverton battle next week to grab the monthly prize. Javed, Lukas, and OC Tan played their second game so 3 more to be full members.

Cheers

Ricardo

Cannon’s,

We had a great morning at Impian with a nice group including three new potential members for their first game with us, Uwe Lukas, Javed Malik, and OC Tan, and hope you guys can join us more times and become full Loose Cannons members. The course was in great condition, with nice fairways and well-maintained greens. The winner today was Ricardo Castro with a gross of 80 for 37 points followed by our guests Javed and Lukas with the same points, but the rule is guests can’t win until they complete 5 games and become full members. Overall great results for everyone and especially for Hans who managed to play his hdc…Well done Hans. The next game will be at Nilai Springs, so prepare yourself for the battle…

Finally, we had the opportunity to play again Kemuning after so many months of trying to contact the club and the excuse was they had a problem with the cable line. Anyways we had a good morning with 3 flights of 3 players and we tee off on time on hole 1. Conditions were ok, playable with some sandy greens and some of them difficult to read the speed. We welcomed a new guest from the UK visiting Malaysia, Steve Laking (Thanks to Dave Evans) and he got a sleeve of balls to remember this special and memorable moment in time. The winner today was David Cheung with 88 for an amazing 42 points followed by our guest with 100 for 38 points and in third place was the consistent Helmut Dicknoeter with 93 for 36 points. After the game, we rushed to the nearby restaurant Gather Gather Kitchen where we had some cool beers and nice food. The next game will be at Impian.

Cheers

Ricardo
