North Hill, 26.08.19

There were 7 Members in today’s Stableford Tournament in Sunny conditions but with recent downfalls we had lift, clean & place rules in place but honestly it was not needed. The winner today was Don Bishop[ with 36 points and the runner-up was Serge A with 35 points all the remainder were separated by only 1 point. Well done to all concerned.

 

Don and Sergre


North Hill, 23.8.19

There were 13 members in today’s Stableford event and with the recent downpours it was lift, clean and place, a rarity on this course. Still with all the recent rain the course held up pretty well with some soggy areas and water still in one of the bunkers and some of the water hazards exceeding their boundaries. No takers for the new birdie hole #18. The winner today and an indication of how poorly the others played was Garry Walker with 36 points, runner-up was our regular Leon Smiler with 33 points and tied in third place were Nigel Stubbs and Jomo McDermott with 29 points. Well done to all.

There were 7 members for today’s round. It was captain’s choice and it was a Skins game with no carry overs. Leon Smiler was today’s winner with 6 skins followed by Roland with 5 skins and Mr.Park with 4 skins.

Maejo: 19.08.19

Only 4 members turned up for todays round, the conditions were on the hot and humid side but luckily we completed our rounds in under 4 hours.

Lanna, 19.08.19

8 members for today’s stableford on courses 3 and 1. Delighted to say that the birdie hole went to a deserving cause, Nigel Stubbs. Suffice to say that the course played very long and the greens on course three were very poor due to hollow tining. Tied for second were Kim Stogner and Nigel Stubbs with 31 points. Today’s winner was Keith Taylor with 32 points. Well done all.

Kim, Keith and Nigel

19.08.2019 – Stableford Lanna 3-1


North Hill, 16.08.19

There were 18 golfers for today’s Stableford event under overcast skies with the occasional light shower of rain.  Course in great condition even after the recent rains as today’s scores can attest.  The winner with 41 points was Don Bishop who also took out the birdie hole #7 in it’s first week.  Runners up with 39 points were Nigel Stubbs, Jack Cooper, Christian Friis and Andrew Ashton all with 39 points. A bit of slow play in the last group of the day taking five hours for the round and for the sake of those waiting in the club house please give this some careful consideration.  Mr. Park is returning to Korea for a few weeks and we wish him a fond farewell.  Well done to Nigel Stubbs on his birdie at #15 which many of us consider. to be the hardest hole, he has now done it twice. Today’s after game presentation was held in the new “Screaming Eagle” bar downstairs prior to it’s official opening next week but it will be back to upstairs Mix for us next week. Numbers are down in our Monday golf but not just because of the weather but more likely because of recent departures from our regulars.  I have booked two groups for next week but if we continue to struggle to make the numbers I will be cancelling the regular Monday booking for CMSG and leave it for the few regulars to organize themselves.

7 members for our round today, the scores were not to good as the course is playing very hard at the moment, some of which is likely due to the rough which in places is quite long and very hard to play out of, it certainly is a bonus if you can stay on the fairways.

Just a reminder to ALL, if anyone is interested in joining us in our upcoming Laos trip please contact Jack Kuzina,  johnkuzina@hotmail.com.  We are leaving on the 7th November and returning on the 12th.
