Wet and cool morning at Sungai Long with some rain on the first four holes. Hole # 1 fairway was quite soggy but overall the course was in a great condition as always. We had Hans Benn for his second game and Roland Steiner for his third game as well. The winner today was Bernhard Romahn with 88/35, in second was Ricardo Castro with 84/32, and the lowest gross was followed by our guest Hans Benn with 90/31. Lunch was at nearby Zheng Palace with good food and cool beers.

Always a pleasure to play at Templer Park, with beautiful scenery, great course conditions, and a fantastic group of brothers. Two flights teeing off from hole # 1 on time and we finished quite in a good time all the 18 holes. We welcomed Mike Fay from down under, for his first game with us and we are looking forward to seeing him again. The winner today was Iain Wise with a nice 94 for 36 points, beating Ricardo Castro (lowest gross) for 1 point 85/35 and in third place was Bipan Kapu with a reasonable 102/32. Today we celebrated 2 birthdays (Erol Akinci and Bernhard Romahn) with some LC gifts and they also contributed 200.00Rm each for the lunch and a big thank you for your donation. Next, the game will be on Thursday 21st at Sungai Long, due to the Publick Holiday on Tuesday and Klogs on Wednesday. It was also nice to see again Andrew Robinson playing with us even DNF but the most important is his company. See you guys and stay safe.

It was nice to play again Glenmarie Valley course as the first Ramadan game during this month. As

Dave Evans with a fantastic 98 for 40 points, second place was Ricardo Castro (lowest gross) with 83/37

followed by Vind Sidhu with a reasonable 90 for 35 points. After the game 6 of us drove to the very new

PICTURES OF THE DAY

It was a nice morning out at UPM club, experiencing a new course for the majority of us, nice layout,

quite challenging, especially a few blind tee shots, narrow fairways with water on the first nine, and hilly

on the second nine, very dry, with many balls lost. Overall the course was playable with the second

nine in worst conditions than the first but we all (except for Bernhard and Martin) enjoyed the golf.

On behalf of LC Society, I want to apologize to our new members Bipan and Roland who stayed alone

playing the last 5 holes, showing a lack of respect and etiquette toward the flight buddies and

consequently to the organizer. This is not our true philosophy and behavior, especially for the wrong

reasons, and hope this situation can be avoided. Back to the game, the winner today was Dave Evans

with a good score of 104/35, second place was Bipan with 101/34 followed by our guest Hans Benn,

playing his first game with us with 87 (sharing the lowest gross with Mike Williams) for 34 points.

With these results, the March winner is Bent Serritslev with 75 points and, after the March games

In the LC of the Year competition, Bipan is leading with 44 points, followed by Ricardo with 36 points

and Iain with 36 points. We welcome April games and looking forward to enjoying some Ramadan rates.

Geoff Parslow sadly passed away in Australia on the 18^th March after a long struggle with cancer and he will be dearly missed by all who knew him.

Geoff was a Club Professional at Yarra Yarra Golf Club and Tweed Heads Golf Club in Victoria and a Touring Pro playing on the Asian Golf Circuit, the PGA Tour of Australia, and after he turned 50,  the European Seniors Tour. He won the Victoria Open in 1977 from Greg Norman and Johnny Miller and played in the Open Championship at Royal Lythan & St. Annes in 1979 finishing T54 behind the winner Seve Ballesteros.

Geoff was a partner with his brother Ted and Jason Winter in the very successful golf course design company Parslow & Winter Golf Design, responsible for numerous courses in Malaysia and beyond, the most notable being the redesign and redevelopment of TPC Kuala Lumpur.

After his playing career ended Geoff came to live in KL and in 2012 he joined Loose Cannons with Ted and played 324 games with us and joined several of the clubs Away Tours. Geoff brought a new dimension to Loose Cannons games. Geoff had a wicked sense of humor and was always ready to offer some advice to his playing partners, but in an off-the-cuff matey manner that was greatly appreciated.

Geoff will be missed by all who had the privilege to have known him.

RIP

Today we were on two flights, with 8 players.

The course was nearly fully booked, we had to accept a 20-flight shotgun start with a group of Terengganu government officials.  We were originally supposed to start at 8:15 but were allowed to start half an hour earlier at hole 14.

In the beginning no golfers in front of us. We were able to enjoy our own pace. It only took us 65 minutes to play the first 5 holes.  Then we were facing the government officials in front of us they played extremely slowly.  In total it took us almost 5 hours to finish (ie almost 4 hours for the remaining 13 holes).

Greens were very sandy, slow, and hard/dry, fairways were in good condition. The weather was good, a bit overcast and not too hot. The winner today was our new member Bent Serritslev with a impressive 94 for

46 points followed by Tony Morris with a fantastic 87 (lowest gross) for 40 points, and in third place was

Bipan Kapur with 98 for 37 points. Only Andrew and Iain kept the LC tradition and went to Annex for a

long and refreshing lunch.

Thank you Josef for your help and all of you for making Josef’s life easy with the registration. See you guys next week at Palm Garden. Stay safe.

We had a very wet early morning with persistent rain from the day before but stops before we tee

off around 7:50 am. Most of the fairways were quite soggy turning the course difficult to

play and many times even trying to find a dry spot to place the ball with most of the greens playing

quite fast reflecting on the results for all of us. The winner today was Helmut Dicknoether with a

fantastic :-)) 100/31, sharing second place was Ricardo Castro and Josef Winter with 30 points and in

third place was our new full member Bent Serritslev with 29 points. To celebrate Bent’s membership

he donated 200.00Rm for the beers and next game we will have a small celebration with some gifts

for him. Also for his first game, we welcomed Roland Steiner and hope he can join us every week. It

was reported the incident on hole # 15 par five between Iain Wise and Bernhard Romahn with Iain

shooting a blind shot and instead of finding the fairway he finds Bernhard leg provocating some

discussion between them and we all hope with no bad consequences for Bernhard. This can be a wake

up call for everyone to not stand in front and especially if someone is playing a shot from a blind

spot. After the game seven of us had lunch at East of Highway. Thanks again Bent for your donation.
