Virtual Open - nearly there!

Posted by: user24437 | Fri 1st Aug 2008 18:18 | Last Reply

So, had a look on the virtual open leader board to see how close I am to winning a putter, make it easy for Darren because I don't live far from him and could pick it up and save him the postage.  After a few minutes of scrolling down finally found myself in mid-table mediocrity - 297th!

So all I need to do to get in with a shout (with my 21 handicap) is to get an easily achievable 52 points.  On my calculations a 7 over par 79 (nett 58) at the Golfshake open should just about clinch it!

It's called irony, David.  Just have to satisfy myself by beating you.

52 points i wonder what big Johny P would have to say about that I wouldnt score that if i add together 3 rounds. What is the highest stableford score that anybody has seen previously 52 is the highest ive seen to date?

Dunno, but the highest I've ever got is 43 when Golfshake was still sorting my handicap out back in the day.  Best lately was 39, just one of those days when I couldn't miss. There's a couple of 52's and even a 61 on the virtual leaderboard!

Still think Darren should organise a comp for all the leaderboard front runners, I'd gladly chip in a couple of quid to see a 28 handicapper hit every fairway and green in reg and then do 1.44 putts per hole.....

I remember it well, Stuart.
