Results – Kinrara Golf Club – 30th September 2014

Report

It was a hazy morning as 20 Loose Cannons players showed up at the Kinrara Golf Club for the September Trophy game. Course conditions although a tad soggy in parts due to the recent rain was generally good. The greens were in good shape other than one or two which had been hollow tined.

Our 5 flights got off sharp before 8am from two split tee boxes and most were beck by 12:30 or so.

Most of the players drove back and had lunch at the Selangor Club Sport’s Annexe with Andrew Robinson ordering a mountain of pizzas, fries … and of course much liquid amber.

Results

Mike Williams was the September Trophy winner with a gross of 84 and 39 Stableford points – congratulations! Second was Mike Smith with 37 points (94 gross). Best gross of the day was Geoff Parslow with 81. Full results below.

Results – Staffield – 23rd September 2014

Report
The Convenor returned to KL to be eagerly greeted by Iain Wise and Andrew Robinson who had arranged this Tuesday game …. and they quickly passed on the buck! Many thanks to all who helped in arranging and running the games the last 4 weeks I was away.
Staffield was in very good condition with the greens running rather quickly. Weather conditions were very good and the 4 flights got round and finished by just after 12pm. It was then off to Restoran East of the Highway for an excellent lunch for those who decided to join.
Results

Winner of the day was Bernard Romahn with an excellent score of 87 for 40 points. Runner up was Mike Smith with 38 points.

Results – Amverton Cove – 2nd September 2014

Five flights teed off on time and in good weather. Unfortunatley, due to adverse weather conditions 
over the last few months, the course was not in its best condition.

Winner on the day, after count back, was Andrew Chez on 80 for 36 points. 
Andrew Chez also shared the lowest gross with Jason Winter.








Results – Tasik Puteri – 19th August 2014

Report

We had 15 players this morning at Tasik Puteri and we got off to an early start at 5 mins to 8 on two nines (Puteri and Putera). Course conditions were good and the greens quite fast. We made good time round the course but unfortunately due to heavy rain the siren went and suspended play with most players having a few holes to play. Our 4 ball luckily managed to finish the 18th albeit in heavy rain.
We had lunch at our usual Chinese restaurant close to Rawang on the road back to the highway which was good – thank you again to Andrew for the ordering (The black tau foo was particularly good!)
Results

As most players did not manage to finish all 18 holes other than Flight 3 we made the ruling that any hole not played scored 2 points so we could announce a winner. The winner was Geoff McLaws with a very good 40 points and second place was tied between Aftab Ahmad and Jeff Pearce both on 39 points. The gross scores were back-calculated from the Stableford points.
Other than the group that finished (highlighted in yellow on the scoresheet below) the scores were not input into the handicap system as these were incomplete rounds.

Results – Berjaya Hills – 12th August 2014

Report
It was a lovely morning with cool air at the top of Bukit Tinggi when 10 of the Loose Cannons tee’d off at 8:00am – a pleasant change from the high humidity of the lower altitudes of the Klang Valley. The course was a little patchy with a fair bit of wart hog action on the fairways and in particular the greens were bad having been recently sanded leaving it a rather random process to proceed the ball towards the hole. The course however was relatively quiet with only a few other players who decided to move ahead of us to the 10th rather than sticking behind us as we started on hole 1.
After the game we drove back down the hill to Kampung Bukit Tinggi for a great (and cheap) lunch at Restaurant 126 – well ordered Tony!
Results
The winner again this week was Barry Sage with a great score of 88 and 40 points (24 points on the back 9!) – this is now a back to back win for barry who has obviously found his form. We will be seeing his handicap dropping accordingly! Second was Stuart Taylor with the best gross of the day (84) and 37 points.
