"Golf is a game whose aim is to hit a very small ball into an even smaller hole, with weapons singularly ill-designed for the purpose."

Results - Berjaya Hills - 12th August 2014


Report

It was a lovely morning with cool air at the top of Bukit Tinggi when 10 of the Loose Cannons tee'd off at 8:00am - a pleasant change from the high humidity of the lower altitudes of the Klang Valley. The course was a little patchy with a fair bit of wart hog action on the fairways and in particular the greens were bad having been recently sanded leaving it a rather random process to proceed the ball towards the hole. The course however was relatively quiet with only a few other players who decided to move ahead of us to the 10th rather than sticking behind us as we started on hole 1.

After the game we drove back down the hill to Kampung Bukit Tinggi for a great (and cheap) lunch at Restaurant 126 - well ordered Tony!

Results

The winner again this week was Barry Sage with a great score of 88 and 40 points (24 points on the back 9!) - this is now a back to back win for barry who has obviously found his form. We will be seeing his handicap dropping accordingly! Second was Stuart Taylor with the best gross of the day (84) and 37 points.

Results - Nilai Springs - 5th August 2014


Report

There were 16 players today making a full 4 flights. Weather was excellent and we all got off on the Pines 9 at 8:00am prompt and made fairly good time round the course. The course was in good shape and some of the greens fairly fast with an evil slope on hole number 22 which caught out many of the players trying to putt downhill or across the slope. No excuse however for the 3 putts from 2ft I had on the first hole!

After the game most of us adjourned to Dengkil Seafood Restaurant and had some good food and beers.

Results

We had two players tied for 1st place with 41 points but the winner goes to Barry Sage on count back and with a gross of 88 - well done Barry! Second was therefore Siggy with 41 points and a gross of 85.
