Report
It was a hazy day for the Trophy Game at Amverton Cove this week with 15 Loose Cannons turning up to play. We teed off sharp 8:00am from 2 tee boxes and we all completed the round by 12:00pm – so no real holdups at all today. The course was in good shape apart from some obvious bare patches next to the fairway which should be attended to … and the fairways although good are in need of some rain soon. The greens were in good shape and running fairly true.
Results
There were some good scores posted today but the clear winner today posting a gross 72 with 41 points was Jason Winter – well done Jason on a great scratch round! Second was Geoff McLaws with a gross 77 and 39 points and a worthy mention for Peter Davies, who has seen improved performance over the last few weeks doing in 3rd position with 98 for 37 points. Full results below:

Report

We had 6 flights on Tuesday for the game at KGSAAS, playing the President nine and Sultan nine, off 2 tee boxes. Despite some confusion at the start we all managed to get away on time. The weather was fine at the start, however half way round there was a heavy thunder storm. Fortunately it was short lived and did not hold up play to any extent. Winner on the day was Geoff McLaws with an excellent 76 for 40 points. Geoff also had the lowest gross. As usual, when playing KGSAAS we had lunch at the club.

Mike Nairn and Martin Walsh, will both be away for few months, hope to see you back playing with us very soon.

Report

We had 5 flights today for the game at Tasik Puteri. The course was in excellent condition and the weather overcast, so not too hot. Luckily, the Tasik nine was not open, so we played the Puteri and Putera nine.


Winner, (on count back)  was Ted Parslow, with a gross 78 for 40 points. Ted also had the lowest gross. We headed post golf for lunch to the Chinese restaurant at Rawang. The food was ordered by Andrew and as usual was excellent. 


We all welcomed back Mike Smith, who returned to Loose Cannons after a long absence. Mike also paid for all the drinks, so once again thanks from all.


It is hoped that we will be playing at KGSAAS next Tuesday and I will send out an email as soon as I have more details.

Results – Palm Garden Golf Club – 27th May 2014

Report

We had 6 full flights today at Palm Garden for the Monthly Trophy Game. The course was in excellent condition with the hole positions well back and in difficult positions. This along with the fast undulating greens with many of them exhibiting steep slopes at the edges made it a difficult task to putt (once you got on and actually stayed on the green!). Weather was overcast but humid making it not too unpleasant.
Our flight noticed that the caddies were rather poor not giving and advice on the greens and bringing wrong clubs, etc. So some training is require there. Also we had one hole where we were in the middle of driving when a buggy drove up towards us in direct firing line with an oblivious staff member driving the buggy back to the clubhouse!
After the game we stayed at the club which worked out very well. They had offered us a buffet lunch at RM60 per head which we passed on, opting for individual dishes which was somewhat cheaper and fairly quick (part from Iain Wise who had to wait some time for his fish and chips). The fish and chips as always were excellent and a good choice to have at this club.

Results

The best Stableford of the day was Greg Mackley with a gross of 97 and 39 points. However Greg unfortunately does not have the requisite minimum number of 5 games with the group to register an “official” handicap so has to be excluded on this occasion from the prizes. The winner was therefore Kevin Wiggins with a gross of 86 and 37 points so he took the May Trophy and the RM50 pot.
Second on count back and on 36 points was Geoff McLaws with a gross of 80 (best gross of the day) from Ted Parslow and Graham Cadman.
Full results are listed below.
