ROUND SIX & SEVEN - BRING IT ONNNN! |
"Gentlemen Start Your
Engines" - Round Six is on Friday 7th March. Murph is still waiting
to here from his mate at Portsea so he has made a backup booking at
Cape Schanck for 3.00pm. He will be trying to secure a 1.30pm
booking for Portsea SO SPEAK UP IF YOU ARE COMING FROM WORK AND
PREFER A LATER TIME!!! Round Seven has already been booked for
The Dunes at 8.32am on Saturday 8 March and Rosebud Country Club on
Sunday morning from 9.00am.
Murph also advises that he has only enough bedding for 9 so if
anyone can bring other temporary bedding that would be great. You
should also bring your own towels for showering. We will have to get
up early for a shower as there are only two available.
We are again meeting at
the Baxter Tavern on Thursday night around 8.00pm for the
traditional barrier draw and final arrangements etc. |

ROUND FIVE - STILL MATHEMATICALLY
POSSIBLE FOR AT LEAST SIX! |
Sensational playing
conditions once again this season for round 5 of the Massey at the
'Divot'. Where Q with a net 68 put a small gap on the other leaders,
but in doing so tightened in handicap by 2 strokes (about time I
here you all say!). Gooey also with a net 68 tied for first place to
move back into contention in 3rd spot overall. While the Mighty Bean
came home in 3rd place with a fighting 72..... |Full

See you at the Baxter
Tavern on Thursday 6 March at 8.00pm for the draw and a big sip!!

ROUND FIVE - STOP THE PRESS....
BEANO MAKES SEMI'S AFTER SCORE CHECK |
Yes folks, after correct
weight it seems that I made another error in the reading of the
scores (I need a holiday) I incorrectly applied 2 points each to
Kenny & Scoot for their tied match but it should have been 1.5
points (Bean & Scoot therefore both had 2 wins, 1 forfeit , 1 draw
and 1 loss) which means that Scoot & Bean finish with 9.5 points
each with Bean getting 2nd place by a better 'net holes up' (He also
beat Scoot head to head!) So the semi's for the match play are Kenny
V Quinny & Scimma V Beano!!!!!!
Stay tuned for a further wash up of Round 5 etc. ... coming soon I
hope! |

ROUND FOUR - SCHOCKER AT THE
SCHANCK!! |
Benign conditions greeted
the Dewars Stableford Classic at Cape Schanck which should have seen

particularly on the back nine. .....

played at
Centenary Park
on Sunday 10 Feb at 8.15 playing stroke. |

ROUND THREE REVIEW -
LONG AWAITED MAIDEN VICTORY - BUT WELL WORTH THE WAIT!! |
Yes, another sensational day
for golf and didn't the scores show it - with five players bettering the
previous track record of 39 stableford points and Scoot bringing home
the bacon for the first time in his Massey career with a new record
of 46 points which has catapulted him into equal 3rd place on the
tally board.....

ROUND TWO REVIEW - FROM CHOCOLATES
TO BOILED LOLLIES AND A BOIL OVER! |
Another beautiful day saw
records tumble as three of our intrepid warriors broke the previous
course stableford record of 35 set by Jimmy way back in the summer
of 92/93. As well as setting a new stableford mark of 39 points
Henry shot a course record 77 off the stick to better his previous
mark of 78. At the other end of the scale Kenny Baxter went from
chocolates to boiled lollies when he equaled his worst ever score of
23 to bring up the rear following his first up win at The Bend....

ROUND ONE REVIEW - RETURN OF THE
GREAT WHITE SARDINE! |
Fine & warm to hot
conditions greeted us at the opening round of the Massey for 07/08.
This time last year Jimmy stamped himself as the man to beat with a
win at Cape Schanck, but not this year as he struggled at the first
hurdle of his tilt at a sixth Massey title to come in last with a
net 89. However the bigger story is that of the return of the GREAT
WHITE SARDINE!....

FINAL ROUND 06/07 REVIEW - NUMBER FIVE IT IS! |
With Murph and Mike absent and a 4.5 point deficit to make up Glenn
needed a miracle to capture his maiden Massey title. Well he didn't let
himself down as he punched his way to a remarkable net 71 under extreme
pressure to claim top points for the round. Schimma shot an equal
course record 84 strokes (72) and Scoot also helped out with a personal
best net 74. Gooey tried hard with a contribution of 76. He only needed
two more players inside Jimmys score..... |Full
