Results - Amverton Cove - 29th December 2015


For the last Loose Cannon's game of 2015 and the Trophy Game for December we played at Amverton Cove. We originally had 4 full flights but due to tow last minute pull-outs we had 14. We teed off on split 9's and the pace was very good for the first 9 holes .... after the turn some Tan Sri and local sultan had cut in in front of the groups and the last 9 holes were rather slow. However the course was in good shape and the weather was fine.

Post game we ate lunch at the usual restaurant at the bridge close to the club - food was good (well ordered Iain Wise) and a suitable quantity of liquid amber was consumed.

Ray Funnell will be resigning as Convenor - many thanks Ray for all the good work this year - and Mike Smith will be taking over the helm as of 1st 2016 aided by myself, Stuart Taylor, to do the handicapping and Iain Wise to do the monies.

Results

Our December Trophy winner was Jeff Pearce with an excellent 40 points (gross of 88) with Geoff McLaws runner up (again!) with the best gross of the day of 77 and 39 points. Full results below:

Results - Amverton Cove - 25th August 2015


We had 5 flights today and 19 players for the Loose Cannons August Trophy Game at Amverton Cove. We all got off on two tee boxes at 8:00am and all made good time around the course. Weather was good - a little overcast and hazy. The course was generally in good condition but I noticed a few areas around the course which were rather untidy and needed some attention. Greens were fairly good but many people noticed them to be a little bumpy.

We had lunch and prize giving at the seafood restaurant back along the road from the club next to the river. Paul Geddes was given his trophy which he won back in June but Andrew Chez, our winner of the day, unfortunately couldn't join us for lunch - his trophy will be passed on to him but the winning RM50 was promptly put back into the coffers by Moneybags, Iain Wise and put towards the lunch.

Results

The winner of the August Trophy Game was Andrew Chez with 38 points and a best gross of 78. This was on count back (Back 9 ... Andrew Chez 21, Barry Cousins 18) from Barry Cousins who was runner up also with 38 points and a gross of 101. Full results are below :
