Gents,

Only 1 flight this morning at Bukit Kemuning. It was very quiet at the course anyway. We managed to tee off at 7.30 and finished, even after the shower in about 4 hours. 

The course was in good condition, the greens were a bit slow, and the grass was a bit long, but that was the only remark this morning. 

After the game, we stayed at the club for lunch, as the usual restaurant was closed, another one as well, and we were with a small group anyway.

Markus with his 3rd game, finished fourth with 22 points, Jan third with 29 points, and Dave with 32 points had to leave the first place to Bernhard with 33 points. With these results, Jan won the August competition with 77 points beating Ricardo by 1 point, and in third place Roland with a reasonable 70 points. For the annual competition, Ricardo keep chasing Bernhard, now with only 11 points separating the first and second place, followed in third place by Roland with 48 points, and with the last 4 months’ games all still open for the podium.

Next week we’ll play at Amverton Cove.

Always a difficult course to play, The Lakes at Rahman Putra. As the name says, a lot of water on the course. And this time even more than we expected! We started at 9 am because a mistake was made at the club. Only one flight was booked while we were with three full flights!

Anyway, the start was with a grey sky, the drizzle started at hole 4 or so, and a couple of holes later, the skies opened up, and it poured down with rain. We tried to play on, but it really was too much, and a minute later the siren went off meaning that we had to leave the course.

We all played 10 holes, so the scores were made as you see below.

It is a shame, as it is a beautiful course, so it won’t be long before we will be back. Frans Bakker played his 3rd game and Markus Nejmejer his 2nd game.

Next week we’ll play Bukit Kemuning

Today at Kota Seriemas we teed off with 3 full flights, including 4 guests. Frans Bakker and Clive Gordon played their second game for the Loose Cannons and Dave Humphries and Markus Neijmeijer, played for the first time. Welcome guys!! The result was that in this game 4 Dutch players were on the course, and also during lunch!! 

The course was in very good condition, and the weather was pleasant to play, but the greens were very tricky. A bit off and you could find yourself further away from the hole than where you started.

Anyway, the scores were generally good, and that was celebrated during lunch at a restaurant we hadn’t been to before. It was a good choice!

We had 3 players in third place: Fritz, Bernhard, and Dave with 33 points. Ricardo ended up second with the lowest gross score of 80 and 36 points. Jan was first today with 38 points!

During lunch, we welcomed Markus with a sleeve of balls, and we celebrated the July winner David and the winner of the day Jan.

Next week we will play at Rahman Putra.

It was a good time to play the Danau course, following a lack of rain the fairways are very dry, and playable, with good greens but trick pin positions, making some of us lose a few puts. Two flights with 3 balls started at 7:30am before the tournament and the pace of the game was smooth and we all finished before 11:30. Jan with Calf problems (maybe a lot of activity last night…… a hahaha), had to pull out and hope to see him again next week. Ricardo Castro with another 79 was today’s winner followed in second by Bernhard Romahn and Fritz Katzengruber booth with 33 points. With these results, Ricardo is leading the monthly competition with a comfortable 76 points, followed by Roland with 70, and with 3 games to go all can happen. After the game only 3 of us stay for lunch and we decided to stay at the club for a nice cheap meal and good refreshments (not beer). Next week we are playing Kota Seriemas

Cheers

Gents,

We played Bangi this morning, with the Kajang nine closed and under repair, we played the Bangi and Putrajaya nine. The Bangi course has changed so much compared to a number of years back. Much fewer trees, and no bunkers at all, which makes the course less interesting to play. It is easier though as they keep the rough very short, fairways relatively wide, and not a lot of water on the course. The course was in very good condition, and it was nice to play. We were not really slowed down by anyone, so we finished well before 12. After a drop-out and an add-on, we teed off with three 3-balls, which also helped in a good speed through the course. The weather was quite nice, not too much sun, and every now and then a breeze.

We enjoyed an excellent lunch in a “new” restaurant in Kajang, advised by Chia. His generous donation kept the costs in line, for which we all thanked Chia!!

The scores reflected the relative ease of the course. The last of the nine was Bernhard with 32 points!

Ricardo played very well with a gross score below 80. Chia, Ricardo, and Hans ended up in shared third place with 38 points. Roland and Jan were fighting for first place with both 39 points, which was won by Jan on countback with 24 points on the back nine.

Next week, we will play at their neighbors, at Danau.
