Wauchope Men's Vets weekly update 27.07

Wauchope Men’s Veteran Golfers

Another busy week has passed us. Thank you to all our members for the participation last Tuesday when we had a field of 148 players. It was a bit slow but when the course is full from the moment the go button is pressed, I don’t think we can expect much more. Future visits to and from Wingham we will be playing for the Neil Grant Memorial Shield which will be decided by the top ten scores from each club at each venue totalled to determine the winner. The Shield has been purchased is ready for next year.

Tuesday 29^th July is President’s Day, a Single Stableford. Looking at the computer sheet this afternoon, shows there are only 2 spots vacant, if you are looking for a hit on Tuesday you should get quick.

I asked my Roving Reporter Mr Dennis Hughes to report on Friday’s Bill Medley Shield at Kempsey, (if you detect a little bias, its ok, as Dennis is the Bill Medley Shield Selector). Here is Dennis’s Report.

“Great day at Kempsey with the greens 250% better than last year. Full coverage of grass and holding.

Results. Points. 1st Wauchope 234. 2nd Equal Port Macquarie, South West Rocks & Kempsey 229, 5th Equal Kew & Freddo 218 pts with Crescent Head 204 pts.

 
Progressive totals. Port Macquarie 941, Wauchope 925, South West Rocks 906, Kew 903, Freddo 897, Kempsey 896 and CH 601.

Rod Millican won the day with 39 pts and Keith Martin won B grade with 37 pts

Poor old Dicko had 38 pts but lost C grade on a c/b
Others 34 pts Darryl Morrow, Dennis Hughes, John Uncle, 34 pts David Mills and Kevin Miller 33 pts..All won balls
Others Ian Ban 29, Phil Rarity 30, Bob Maggs 31, Rod Allen 32, Allan Lynch 30, Doug Connell 32, Quenton Henry 30, Peter Abell, 30, JJ 26, Jeff Tinsley 26, Didnt see what Ralph Newell got.”

Thank you Dennis a great result only 16 points behind Port Macquarie, which means it is very important for us to field  a really good team for Port Macquarie Bill Medley on Monday 11^th August, also thank you for the report.

Kempsey has asked us to collect the Green Fees for Tuesday 5^th August in advance of our visit. We will attempt to collect as many as possible on Tuesday, the cost is $16. This will help the Pro shop on the day and they will print  our cards and finalise the competition.

There are about 23 players travelling to Tuncurry tomorrow 28.07, I feel everybody has been notified of Bus times and  Hit off times, the cost is $25 for Golf, Tuncurry Burger lunch, scones and morning tea on arrival, bus is $5.  Have a good day!!!
 

Dates to remember coming up:

Monday 11^th August, Bill Medley at Port Macquarie (sheet on board or table)
Monday 25^th August, Wal Sneddon Shield at Kew Golf Club
Tuesday 9^th September AGM and BBQ
Friday  19^th September Bill Medley Shield at Frederickton
 

Good golfing

Wauchope Men's Vets weekly update 20.07

A number of items to cover today, it is good to be on the computer when it is so cold outside.

I would start with, we have large field on Tuesday 22^nd July it is a full field, which means there will be conjestion at the Pro Shop to get started etc. If you are able to pick up cards for more than one person, please do so, be there a little earlier than usual etc, you all know it better than I do.  It is an 8:30am shotgun start, we would like all groups ready to go when the siren is sounded. The competition is a Single Stableford.

 

Tuesday 22^nd you would be booking ahead for 5^th August, this is the day we need to move our competition to Kempsey because Wauchope is not available to us.  There will not be a nomination page on the computer, so those playing on that day need to nominate on the sheet on the Vets noticeboard or later Tuesday on the table.

We won the Harri-Hope Shield !!!!!!!   Twenty very dedicated golfers travelled to Harrington Waters on Friday 18^th to contest the second leg of the Harri-Hope Shield. The first leg was held at Wauchope earlier in the year and gave us a good start of 50 points ahead. As it turned out the wind was so strong and cold, it was to our advantage. There were only 4 scores of 30 and above for the day, almost all in the 20s. We won the shield 307 to 288 points and will hold it until next year. Darryl Morrow was successful in winning A grade with Rod Millican coming 3^rd in A grade. It was certainly not a pleasant day for golf, thank you to everybody who nominated, they all turned up and played, it shows the spirit of the club. (There are a couple of photos on the blog of presentation etc. http://wauchopemensvets.blogspot.com.au/ )

I have Tuncurry hit-off times for 28^th July, I will email them to individuals tonight and confirm Bus travellers and Bus times.

Kempsey Bill Medley Shield 25^th July,  times have been emailed and are on the vets board.

 
Port Macquarie Bill Medley Shield is on Monday 11^th August, It is a 9:00am Shotgun Start (Check-in 8:30am) Cost is $20 (includes gourmet hamburger or sandwich). Sheet is on the board or on Tuesday on the table.

Also in August is Monday 26^th,  the Wal Sneddon Shield at Kew. There are no nomination sheets out yet, just so you can plan.

 

Wauchope Week of Golf is on Thursday /Friday 4^th and 5^th September. The nomination sheet will be open to locals in the next couple of weeks, I will inform you of more as I get it.

That should fill the diary up to the 1^st week of September.

There is no Thursday results because it was too cold on Saturday for me to play!

 

Good golfing!

Rod Millican receiving his prize for 3rd in A grade

 

One golfer who really tried his heart out for the team!!!

 

You would be forgiven if you thought it was  Tumut, but no it was Harrington Waters on Friday

Wauchope Men's Vets weekly update 13.07

Weekly Update

Tuesday 15th July is the Bi-Monthly Medal, Single Stroke, also putting competition and 5th Round of the Ecclectic. The Putting Competition is sponsored by Al Muller and Bill Wagner, the Ecclectic is sponsored by Dennis Hughes and John Uncle. Looking at the time sheet there are 13 timeslots vacant, so get in now, if you are looking for a game on Tuesday.

I have cleaned the Men’s Vets locker out and there are a number of golfing items that have been lost over the years, I will place the plastic bag with these items in it at the table inside the Club when I get there on Tuesday, take what you want, what is left at the end of Tuesday will be disposed of.

The Kempsey Bill Medley Nominations have been sent to them, it is on Friday 25th July, 9:00am Shotgun Start, Check in by 8:30am, I will keep you informed of any news I receive from Kempsey. It is a good response with 23 players nominating.

The names have been sent off to Harrington for the Harri-Hope Shield on Friday 18th July, This is not a shotgun start, so I expect I will receive names and tee times tomorrow or I will be calling them. There are 20 players nominated.

 

The trip to Tuncurry on Monday 28th June is popular. There is a bus organised, there are still seats available at $5 per person. There are about 23 players nominated. So we get there in time to enjoy a cuppa and scones before hitting off, the bus will leave Emerald Downs at 6:00am, Blackbutt at  6:15am, Donut at 6:30am, Ghost Rd at 6:30am. This is not a shotgun start, we will receive tee times, I expect by 22nd July, there are about 24 nominations.
