Khao Kheow A & C ( Stableford) The 'Slow' has been on the Golf Courses for the last two weeks, with five hour rounds as normal, but at K.K. it improved to four and a half hours, even though we had two five balls in front all the way around.
the Course on the day was in fine condition with the greens in the finest shape they have been in over a year.
The ever steady Ebrahim took the A Flight on countback from Chuck Carriere in second and Thomas Buch in third, all on 35 points. In the B Flight the winner was Jack Piercefield with Graham Buckingham in second, both with 33 points. In third was Colin Swann with 31 points on a countback from Brian Noguer. T.T.F.N.

Thursday The 31st January 2008

Treasure Hill (Stableford) We usually get a good turnout for this Course, and this day was no exception. The drive up there is getting better and the drive back now is excellent and this makes the Courses in this area much more accessible.
Arriving there, we noticed the car park was empty, so we knew we were in for a quiet day, and so it proved, with a Tee Off on the first and nobody ahead, we were able to zoom around. Mind the wind did blow strongly at times. Ever notice how the wind is much stronger when you play into it than when it is behind?. What is more it always seems against never behind.
The Course at present is in very good condition, everything considered, however they have not marked the hazards as yet, and this always leads to the, 'is it, isn't it' syndrome. It is also noticeable that the caddies do not rake the bunkers, so be warned.
This is a difficult Course so it was not surprising that, with the exception of one score, all the players were beaten by the Course.
In the A Flight, 0 to 18, all places were decided on countback with all the winners scoring 34 points. The winner was Bob Morrison with Dave Richardson in second and Johann Reynisson in third.
In the B Flight, 19 up, we had the one really good score of the day when Brian Blackford came in with 37 points. We then had a countback on 34 points that saw Art Bailey in second and Hugh O'Donnel in third. Then it was the drive back, which was pretty fast. T.T.F.N.
