Canberra v Sydney  November 13 Moss Vale

 

There was strong interest for a group of golfers to travel to Moss Vale on the Saturday afternoon. Apparently the trip a few years ago was an outstanding success, influenced by a spectacular meal at the local restaurant.  Below is the list of names from those who have expressed their desire for another night in Moss Vale

 

R. Krile, R. Gounden, J. Queneau, R. Hepi, A. Glavinic, W. Cameron, I. Majdandzic,

P. Lemezina, M. Lemezina.

 

From the names above it seems another interesting night is ahead for all particularly after some local lubrication. We will ask for any further interest at this week’s game.

 

For those needing a cart, inquire directly to the Moss Vale Golf Club

OLDER NEWSLETTERS

2005

Maurie was not having a good day on the golf course. After he missed a twelve inch putt, his partner asked him what the problem was.

 

"It's the wife" said Maurie. "As you know, she's taken up golf, and since she's been playing, she's cut my sex down to once a week."

 

"Well you should think yourself lucky," said his partner. "She's cut some of us out altogether!"

 

Next Events:

19 June                 Gold Creek tee off 09:15 match play

Will the October long weekend trip to Merimbula be revived?  How many are interested in going?

Visitors are welcome to attend and enjoy a great day with great blokes (on payment of full CCGC green fees of the day).

 

A keen but unskilled golfer plays the same course every week, and has particular trouble with the water trap on the 14th hole, losing a ball in it every time he plays that hole. One round he decides that this process is too expensive and decides to use an old cut-up ball instead of a good ball. He opens his bag and gets the old ball, tees it up and addresses it. Just as he commences his backswing, a mighty voice comes from on high:

 

"USE THE NEW BALL..."

 

Figuring any advice from such a source should be worth following, he picks up the old ball and tees up the new one again. He starts his backswing, but once again is interrupted by a voice from the sky:

 

"TAKE A PRACTICE SWING.."

 

The man steps away from the ball and rehearses his swing. Just as he steps forward to readdress the ball, the voice speaks again:

 

"USE THE OLD BALL."

MATCH PLAY RULES

 

Objective

The objective of Match Play is to win more holes than your opponent. Match Play is a one on one competition format.

Scoring

When scoring you must take handicaps into consideration. Deduct the lower handicap from the higher handicap, the difference is the “head start” the higher handicap player will receive. The higher handicap player will distribute evenly his “head start” over the Match Index holes that are ranked from 1 to 18, and receive these as stroke advantages over his opponent. For example:

Higher Handicap Player (36)

Lower Handicap Player (15)
=
21 Strokes “Head Start”

The Higher Handicap Player will have one stoke advantage on holes ranked 4th and higher and two strokes on holes ranked 1st, 2nd & 3rd. A Match Play Hole has only 2 possible results a win for a player or the hole is halved (tied).

Using the above example for a Match Play Hole ranked 3rd if the Higher Handicap Player records a gross score of 6, and the Lower Handicap Player records a gross score of 4, the hole is halved or tied and no result is recorded. However, if the Higher Handicap Player records a gross score of 5, and the Lower Handicap Player records a gross score of 4, the hole has been won by the Higher Handicap Player.

Tallying Up Results

If a player has won more holes than there are left to be played, the game has been won and is over. Results will reflect this scenario for example:

2 & 1 means a player was up by 2 holes and there was one hole left to play. Effectively the game was over after the completion of the 17th hole played.

A Tied Result

If holes are tied (both player have won the equal amount of holes), a putt-off will determine the winner. Each player will putt once at an agreed point, the player closer to the hole will be the winner.
