Report

It was a beautiful, still and slightly overcast morning at Tasik Puteri with 13 players heading out onto the Puteri and Putera nines – should have been 15 but we had a no-show from ReinLi Tan. The weather was cool for the first nine holes but it soon warmed up for the back 9. The course was playing well and in good condition, the greens had been hollow tined but were running very well.  The tee boxes however were in much need of cutting and repair. With 3 x 3-balls and 1 x 4 ball we were finished within 4 hours then headed to the usual restaurant back on the road to Rawang for food and drinks.
Results
There were some good scores today with over half the field shooting to handicap or better. In 3rd place was Brian Stubbs with 39 points (gross 97), 2nd place was Allan Wright, 40 points (gross 94), but the clear winner was Stuart Taylor with an excellent 44 points (gross 78) equaling his best round to date which was just shot last week at Bangi. Best gross was Stuart Taylor with 78. Full results tabulated below :

Only 8 Cannons turned up to challenge the various nines of Tasik Puteri, making it very easy at registration and money counting time.
Two flights headed out earlier than our intended 8am tee time and we were not worried by other players/flights whatsoever. We played the Tasik and Putera nines which we all know are vastly different in character and represent a sometimes difficult challenge.
Both flights got around in good time and just beat the siren before the rain came. Had we been caught in that downpour, boats would have been required for passage back to the clubhouse. Lunch was at our usual Restoran “right of the road before the petrol station” and the six of us enjoyed a very good spread and a few amber ales.
Bernard Romahn won the day to make it two weeks on the trot, with a gross of 88 and 36 points. A somewhat distant second was Henning Therkelsen with 32 points and third, Siegmund Maierbrugger with 31. Lowest Gross was shared by Bernard and yours truly. Results attached.

4 flights today at Tasik Puteri under very good conditions – playing the Puteri and Tasik 9’s. The course was in very good shape and the greens were also good, though some were on the slower side. We made good time round the course and were all back by 12:30pm. Lunch was taken at the usual restaurant on the way back towards Rawang with 9 players attending.

Results

The winner today was Graham Cadman (who was a last minute replacement for Andrew Robinson who pulled out) with an excellent 40 points (gross of 94). Joint second was Barry Sage and Henning Therkelsen both on 38 points. Best gross of the day was shared between Henning Therkelsen and Stuart taylor with 86.

Report

We had 5 full flights today and arriving at Tasik Puteri there were a number of other golfing groups registering making it a little busier than normal. As we registered and had some snacks/refreshments it was amusing once again to watch the continuing saga of Barry Cousins ordering eggs …. he ordered “two eggs any style” from the menu and was served ONE fried egg ….. as I left for the registration desk I could hear him complaining to the serving staff …. he eventually got his two eggs …. see photo below.
We played the Putera and Tasik 9’s today …. the Puteri course closed for maintenance. It was hard going today as the course looked like it had been unattended to for some time with long grass in the rough (and fairway) and rather bumpy and sandy greens. There were also some very wet and boggy areas due to the constant heavy rain lately. Play was very slow due to a lengthy wait (35 mins) to tee off then being held up by numerous groups in front.
We finished close to 2pm making it a 5hr+ round! Our last hole was done in heavy lashing rain so arrived back at the clubhouse severely soaked through, wet and cold.
Lunch post game was taken at the usual M&M Chinese Restaurant back down the road towards Rawang.

Results

The winner today was Mike Williams with a modest 36 points (gross of 88) with Martin Walsh a runner up with 33 points (gross of 90). Best gross of the day was Martin Walsh and Russell Maw both with 88. The results reflected the tough playing conditions today. Mike Williams didn’t make lunch today so as is customary his winnings went into the pot towards lunch … thank you Mike! Full results below:

With the main group of Cannons on tour this week to Batam, a small group of non tourists assembled for game at Tasik Puteri. We played the Putera & Tasik 9’s in that order which meant that the second 9 was rather warm! The course was in good condition but much dryer than expected; especially the greens which were hard and quite fast. Teeing off at just after 8am we made good progress and the last flight was back at 12:20pm. 8 of us then reassembled at the usual M&M place for an excellent lunch washed down with many bottles of the amber nectar, all for RM290.

The damage. Collected RM1100. G/F & Caddies RM1062. Winners Prize RM50. Lunch RM290. Lunch collection RM320. Balance in hand RM18.

The winner was Peter Barker with an excellent gross 80 (37 back 9) and 37 points.

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.

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.
