Holder Streaks



Tocumwal, April, 30

Current Jar holder Mic Avery challenged all-comers to take the Jar from his 
tubby little hands today. Shooting from where the sun don't shine Avery Shot an 
unblemished 96, 8 under his allotted handicap. Playing against Abbott, Avery 
made sure the door was shut in Abbots face early, streaking to a seven point 
lead at the turn. Although Abbott fought back with an immaculate 42 on the back 
nine the horse, barn and farmyard had already bolted. Avery was as solid as the 
Bank of England, Abbott's game however, resembled Barrings Bank. 

Mackie and Gibbons fought out a closely contested battle with Gibbons finishing 
one point clear of Mackie.  Both showed glimpses of the form that has seen each 
hold the Jar high on Sunday's past yet neither today took such a hold as Avery.  
They will both need to find better form if they wish to challenge for the Jar. 
Mackie may wish to review Harvey Pennicks 100 tips on putting, as 42 putts don't 
cut it here baby.

Tocumwal offered little to test the four Jammers, fairways were wide, yet seldom 
hit, the greens kind and not taken advantage of and all par threes were safe as 
houses with all the Jammers missing to hit the green off the tee on every 
attempt. All points on offer for closest to the pin will wait until tomorrow.
