Well Guys, I said it was close.

Below are the results for Rd 4, the overall tournament and your handicaps so far. Just remember, the handicaps are added to your score, not subtracted like in real golf.

We had a few ties this time and even taking the scores out to four decimal places didn't change the results. Now that's close! :party:

On to Anatnom! :golf:

Cheers

Brad

Hi Guys,

thought I would get in an early round for you to play along with.

Randy, I don't think I've ever played this course before. It's a beauty; very strategic. So, get ready to start "bending 'em like Beckham". I got away with a couple of dodgy shots in this round.

Cheers

Brad

Good stuff partner.

My thoughts on a course is to find the rarely used ones which are well done.

Anatnom is a strategic course, choose your landing well.

Mr. Sullivan is one of my favorites. His courses are for planning ahead.

This course is really demanding on accuracy. Watching out where you land is important. I was unamused to hit a mystery branch on hole 18! I played with Bradthedad, who not surprisingly, seemed to be close friends with the course. I'm going to put some lubricant on his grips...

Hi Brad,

I said I got away with a couple of dodgy shots! "Better to be lucky than good", they say.

While waiting for you guys, I played my first round at The Mushroom Farm. Quite a good course, but unfortunately the 13th tee is far from flat. However, there is nothing better than playing a course for the first time and getting an Ace.

Heading off now to have a look at your Rd 1.

Cheers

Brad

Nice round Brad. You certainly spent a lot more time on the cut stuff than I did!

This is a hard course to score really well on.

Great pick Randy! :up:

Morning All,

if anybody is interested in joining our happy little troupe, please feel free. I have modified the record keeping such that anybody can join in at any time. You don't need to have completed the four rounds at Quail Hollow.

So, all you old timer Golden Bear Denners, please throw your hat in the ring and come and have a bit of fun.

Cheers

Brad

Here's my Rd 2. I was trying to be accurate, accurate, accurate, until my drive on 18! :rolleyes:

Looks like we are headed for another close tournament.

Cheers

Brad
