Meek Makes Mincemeat of Rivals

A great Golf Day at roasting Royal Rushcliffe for the unofficial 5th Major.

Well done to Meeky for winning the overall stableford competiton and a great example of Baker's First Law in practise: he who makes the rules profits by them.

Stu was in sole charge of setting the handicaps, including his own, and docked Bomber Graham three shots before play began. It was a wise move as Golden blitzed the course for a career best 78. Meeky though was consistent throughout, driving nearly every green, and it was only some Jenko-like putting that made it a contest. After a steward's enquiry to separate the two big-hitters, Meeky won on the countback rule, more complicated than the Duckworth-Lewis method.

Drurs, Dale, Rocket and Golden won the team prize, and Meeky longest drive.

Well done to Laddy for making everything run without a hitch, and for the 1000% improvement in prizes. Highlight of the gourmet chip platter was Reggie's schoolboy error, emptying a bottle of Sarsons over his plate of jocky's.
