    the holes that Aaron had to concede were a help

    iainmclean:
    iainmclean loses 3 down to bigcountry

    This was stroke play and he was giving you 6 strokes. Did you guys play it that way?

     

    *edit-NM, getting my tourneys mixed up. BC also has a mini WC match to play where he's giving away 6 strokes!

    Sheesh, turning into Paul.  :-(

    you aint that good looking pal

    I am going all the way.

    Play the course not the opponent, use gamesmanship, hit short off the tee and hit ur approach first....it's all bollucks.

    Just play ur best and if the other guy is better  then u will get beat, most of the time.

     

    Very often in real life when I make a bogey on the first hole and am in despair, it often turns out to be one of my best rounds, but thta could be just because I am one of the most cussed characters u are likely to meeet.

     

    I play my best golf in bad weather, and the same attributes apply here, never let adversity get u down.

    U may get 3 Up on me after 3 holes, but never think the game is over.

    But you forgot to mention John won't be needing the services of his wife this evening after your guy's "chat".

    Hello all

     

    Well thats been a great first round apart from me going out that is lol

    Too be honest ,he deserved the win,he played well and putted great on champ greens,

    I took a bit of time out to watch one of the favourites tasor  take on paul English  from  SEL,

    What a match it was,tasor   and  paul  played superb but paul had a bit of bad luck on the 2nd where he caught a branch and missed a couple of putts but that was enough for tasor to take the win,

    I have had some great feedback from the comments players have made and im glad   so many of you are enjoying meeting new people and liking the format,

    Im  satisfied  we got all games completed and on time,thx to you all

     

    ROUND 2


    St Andrews 18 holes matchplay,

    All games ranked/scored


    My favourite course and i have played it for real,its bloody hard managed to break a 100 which don’t seem real when players are shooting low 50s on here lol,

     

    Start  30t April  must be completed by 14th May

    Players please get your friend  invites out early and arrange a convenient time to play

     

    RULES

    Concessions on putts  must be agreed before start  if there is any

    if level after 18 it will go to sudden death ,there has to be  a winner,

    anyone refusing to play will forfeit  their match,

    if a player changes tier before the match,they must play as the new tier

     

    any player with a -1  by their name must concede hole 14

    any player with a -2 by their name must cocede holes 5  and 14

    any player with a -3 by their name must concede holes 5,12 and 14

    any player with a -4 by their name must concede holes 5,7,12 and 14

     

    holes conceded  must be made on the tee before play of hole

     

    can you check your playing partners tier please just in case they have changed and adjust accordingly

     

     

    For the second  round i will give 2  weeks to complete but if completed i will draw the next round  or might extend a week if any probs,

    If you are having a problem contacting a player or arranging a game,let me know asap and i will try and sort it,there  shoudnt be any problems now really,

     

    Here is the handicap system  between tiers to give the lower tiers a slight chance,

     

    CH  55  and below average at time of play  V TL  2 holes,L 3 holes,TM 4 holes,M 5 holes

    CH v TL   1 hole                  

    CH v L  2 holes

    CH v TM 3 holes

    CH v M 4 holes

     

    TL  v L  2 holes

    TL v  TM  3 holes

    TL v M 4 holes

     

    L v TM 2 holes

    L v M  3 holes

     

    TM v M 2 holes

     I hope this makes sense to you all and fair,i know there may be a few who disagree but this decision if final and hey its a bit of fun.

     

    The holes conceded will be from the handicap index chart on each course,i will post the hole/holes to be concede between tier when i post the round matches,i know a few will probably not agree with some of the holes  but its the only thing i can go by and its the same for all,

     

    here are the pairings for the second round
