    Here it is finally the scorecards for the match between "The Cool Boys" vs AvatarLee & Jimgriff -

    What a great game that was, and another amazing come back win for Imcoola & I !  The game had every thing, great start by Lee & Jim, horrible meter for Imcoola, bad deviation for Jim, miraculous recovery by Lee, a verynear miss which would have won ended the game on the 8th hole, lucky halve for us on the 1st extra hole, a disconnection, unbelievable bad luck for Jim& Lee on the 2nd extra hole, lots of good birdies and clutch saves and a game played in the finest spirit and a few good laughs too ! phew ! i'm exhausted, here's a quick recap.

    10th Hole:  Imcoola metered badly on approach and landed in bunker, Lee dump a very good approach to less then 10 ft, Jim birdie putt - Gold team 1 up

    11th:  Vic pulled the approach to about 20+ ft leaving difficult slick side hill putt, Jim landed short and rolled back down front of green, Lee's chip came very close - halved

    12th:  Imcoola badly metered again landed at front right rough, Lee punched a beauty to 3 ft, Vic pitch shot came close but no cigar ! - Gold team 2 up

    13th:  Halved with birdies

    14th:  Jim's tee shot got deviated badly and flew over green and finished half way down the valley of death, Vic approach pin high but way left leaving a breaking putt around 20+ ft, Lee's recovery slid by the hole down the fast hill to about 25+ft then Jim missed the return putt - Green team win hole, Gold team 1 up

    15th:  Jim's approach hit the front rough and finished in bunker, Vic bombed a nice one to the left which rolled back down and finished 10 ft directly below the hole, Lee's great bunker shot went a fraction past the hole and rolled back just beside the edge of the hole, Imcoola's putt teetered on the edge but didn't drop ! - Halved

    16th:  both approach shots was pin high to the left of hole, 2 good putts for birdies - Halved

    17th:  Imcoola's approach shot was just a few yards short then hit the front bank hard and finished in bunker, Lee dumped a good shot which landed softly on the edge of front rough and stopped about 15 ft pin high to the right, Jim's putt for the win just curled past the edge of hole in slow motion, I almost scream of relief ! - Halved

    18th:  Jim pushed his tee shot into rough, Imcoola hit an excellent approach that finished about 7ft above the hole, Lee went for broke with a tough shot from thick rough and surprisingly it flew way past the hole and ended in rough back of green, Jim chip shot finished 2ft beside the hole, Vic slammed the short putt in for birdie - Green team win hole, it's AS and we go to extra hole !

    1st extra hole:  Imcoola's tee shot got deviated to the left and unlucky to finished in rough just on edge of fairway,  Jim's approach shot is pin high but about 25ft to the left, Vic had 207y to pin with 10mph wind at 2:00 in 20-25% rough, ding the 215y i5 iron and ended about 30y short of green in thick rough !  Lee's putt for the win finished about an inch to the side of the hole, phew ! The cool boys live on ! - Halved

    2nd extra hole:  Jim got metered real bad and had incredible bad luck when it stopped in left fairway bunker but right against high front lip ! Imcoola steered a nice approach pin high and about 15ft to the left,  Lee's had no choice but went for broke and unlucky to hit the lip of bunker and landed in rough, Jim hit a nice recovery shot pin high and about 25 ft left of hole leaving slick side hill putt, Lee's attempt for par fell just below the hole, Vic's putt curled down the side hill and stop dead below hole - Gold team conceded the hole, it's over ! 

    It was just a great game and a lot of fun for us all and i'd like to thanks Lee & Jim for their patience in finding a time for us meet up and play the past 2-3 weeks.  You guys played great golf today and was very unlucky to lose at the end.  It was a pleasure to play with you both and I had a lot of fun and enjoyed the game thoroughly.  Well done guys for making it to this stage and you both played awesome golf the whole way.

    Thanks to my partner Chris for his excellent play at the end despite a horrible start inflicted by the meter god.  Also thanks Lou for giving us more time to finish our game even though i know you were getting a little steamed up because of the delay we've caused, love ya bro ! lol ! :-)

    Hey apologies for not getting our "regional final" match in yet. I'm been messaging Gangaman but I guess he's away. Bart and I were available last week, and we should be available next week as well.  Just let us know when we can play our match.

    Thanks everyone,

    C

    Scorecards for our semi-final match vs b0geybuster & losersss -

    I'd like to thanks both Jeff & Joe for a great game and a most entertained round with lots of good laughs and fine sportsmanship.  

    "The Cool boys" got off to a hot start with birdies for the first 5 holes and missed by inches on the 6th ! "The J Boys" did very well to hang tough in there and fell too far behind and their patience was rewarded eventually when they recorded a fine par save on the 7th hole to reduce the lead to just 1up.  On the difficult 9th hole the J boys was unlucky to lose the hole after good lead up work only to miss the last putt be a fraction.

    On to the back 9 and there was chaos when firstly Chris then myself got kicked off the game and we were lucky to keep the game going after having many problems trying to log back in !  Fair enough with all the distractions around the 10th was halved and we won the 11th when Chris made a great recovery from the rough and the J boys misread a birdie putt.  At the par 5 12th I botched a short putt for the opportunity to stretch the lead and that seem to stir up the J boys as they lifted their game and reduce the deficit to just 1up after the 15th.  It was now our turn to change the momentum and on the 16th I managed to sink a long putt for birdie to increase the lead back to 2up.  Then on the 17th after both drives ended in the rough, Chris slam dunk a short approach from about 45 y to seal the match !

    I want to thank the Deviations CC, and furthermore Lou, for a tournament well done.  

    The "Cool Boys" proved to be too strong today as after there hot start it was hard for us to gain any momentum.   The amazing Eagle took the wind out of our sails, and finished an amazing match showing us just how good these guys are.   

    Thanks Vic and Lou.  Next time I might bring my putter with me.   

    Cheers,

    b0gey

    Well we now have 1 of our Finalists ... Deviations team of Coolswing and Imcoola.   Once Gangaman gets back from his business trip the other bracket will finish up and in 3 matches we can crown a champion.    Nice job boys and girls.

    any idea on when we will play our next match?  been quite a while since we've played a match it seems.  I think there should be a deadline set.  Cyl and I have made ourselves available numerous times.  I think setting a deadline is only fair
