We had a total of 24 Players registered on time but one member did not find the Golf Course and gave up looking for it at 09:30 this morning. Everyone else was ready to go at this nice cool morning.
I would like to mention that this Golf Course is in fantastic shape and well maintained. The Club house is small but very nicely done, the facilities itself are clean and functional. Everyone has a big smile on their face. The food is very good and the prices are really low for a Golf Course (Can of Singh and 2 sodas = 90 Baht).
The playing time was for some groups around 03:30 hours and others 04:30, reason unknown.
And once more it has been proven that our handicap system works, that the Ambrose system is a fair and correct way to calculate the team Handicaps. The first 5 places are only 3 shots apart.
Here are the details:
In sixth place with a Gross of 94 and a net 67 Tayakorn Saenjuy, Roscoe Butler and Lawrence Nahlik.
In 5th place with a Gross of 73 – net 58, Jomo Mac Dermott, Peter Haddon, Leon Smiler, Barry Ochitwa.
Tied in 3rd place with a Gross 75 – net 57, Terry Redding, Keith Freeman, Curtis Nickel, Soren Nielson and with a Gross 67 – net 57, Gerry Brimacombe, Yung Beece, Frank Schwarz, Silvan Schwarz.
In second place with a Gross 69 – net 56, Robert Green, Ralph Hamilton, Camila Dwyer, Brian Heuston.
The Winner today with a Gross 68 – net 55, Tom Berger, Shaun Stewart, Roger Mack, Ric Cameron.

Based on Gold Canyon being completely booked for the month of December and Gassan Legacy high price we have rescheduled the December scramble to be played at Hariphunchai Golf Course.

Please form and submit your 4-man team as soon as possible and for those members not on a team we will make a team for you. For reference the same rules will apply where a team has to utilize at least (3) drives per team member and also all team members can play the 2nd shot regardless of who’s drive it was.
