Hi Guys,

here are my Rd3 and Rd 4 files for Kalgoorlie. Had some good luck and some bad luck, but that's golf. Played Rd 4 with Goran. You are certainly improving Goran and I am happy to announce that you have taken 2 shots off your handicap in only 8 rounds. Well played.

Below also is a table of rounds played so far. Lupin may need to get a wriggle on, on risk being left behind.

Cheers

Hey Brad, as Goran's choice of courses was to ask me to pick two of my own courses, it is only fair that the choice of our next two courses falls to you.

Cheers

Brad

Howdy!

Lupin has been busy with the start of semester at college but indicated he was playing his rounds in the next couple of days.

As for courses, I do have a couple. I’ll post them up very soon with pics!

I would like to celebrate Mr Holden with a pair of courses that deserve some play!

Snakehead! File date is April of 2022. I have not had a chance to play this one and can't wait!

Holy Grail! File date is March 2013, and this course came out during my prolonged hiatus from JN6, so again, I can't wait to get to it!

Steve has been designing the highest level of courses for a long time (back to JNSE I think!), and they typically offer a great challenge. I think it will be fun times :)

Great choise, I was only active in JN from 1999 to 2007 or something and I dont think Steve designed any during that period. So it will be interesting for me, I have only played his last one that was just released.

Hi Brad,

thanks for the update on Lupin.

I like your course choices. Given the plethora of quality courses that Steve has produced over the years, I don't think this will be the last time we tackle some gems from Sundance Designs.

I certainly hope the courses we have are not the last we see from Steve.

Cheers

Brad

Hello!

Brad, really fun courses. I was sad to rush through them, but I'd rather do that than keep you hanging.

No worries Luke.

I am aware of the college pressures you have been under. Been there, done that, although it was 50 years ago. :rolleyes:

Cheers

Hi Goran and Lupin,

there is one thing I have forgotten to mention to you as newcomers.

On top of our regular Stroke, Handicap and Stableford competitions, we also have a "season" long competition, called the FedUp Cup. The points allocated to this comp are calculated using your Stroke, Handicap and Stableford results. This competition will terminate after our last competition event before Christmas. Hopefully we will all still be playing in the regular competition by then. :golf:

Cheers

Brad

Hi Guys,

well, we finally have Rds 1 and 2 finished and, as per usual, competition in all three categories is close. As the more experienced players, Tarheel and I continue to have a great struggle to win the Stroke event, but the handicap system we have in place really levels the playing field when it comes to the two other categories. Congratulations to Goran and Lupin for their wins in the Handicap and Stableford events in the first two rounds.

I think things will get even closer over all four rounds.

Cheers

Brad
