Nooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!  I thought I felt a stabbing pain this morning, must have been as I met the reaper when you dismissed me Dave!

Please tell me...... how did I go????  Was I subjected to a slow painful drowning...... suffocated by some sordid rough...... or just simply brained by being spanked into the Blair Witch woods at 90mph????

I'm sorry I couldn't serve you better, I tried my best to head straight to the hole (story of my life!) but was misguided off course by the curse of golfing doom!!

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, a saddddddddd dayyyyyyyyyyy !!!!!

Dave,

I pledge to serve you to the best of my abilities.  I promise to fly straight, stay clear of the rough, avoid water like a rabid dog, treat sand as the mortal enemy, seek greens in regulation and head for the hole despite the break of the green. 

However, I am a tool forged by your desire, so if you're crap you can't blame me cos you're the idiot who swung the club!

Dave - how come your handicap is still showing as 27.8??  With recent scores of 96 and 94 it should be less than that now surely?? (assuming you're playing par 72 course...)

Not going to mention the BANDIT word for obvious reasons!! Doh!, think I just did.....

 

Anyway, keep playing well.......

The tension is getting unbearable.  Barring disaster on your next three rounds  it looks like its down to a two horse race.  However if you don't get that average up above a hundred per ball Wayne must be odds on to net the spoils.

Could I suggest a small and curable attack of the yips on the greens for the next 6 rounds and putting all your clubs bigger than a pitching wedge in for regripping.

A scenario has occurred to me that we may need to get an R and A ruling on.  When you get down to one ball, if you hit a provisional not of the original twelve, lose it and find the original which was one of the twelve is it game over?

Well done Wayne and Colin and thanks Dave for the entertaining thread. 

What's next Dave's Shoes.  Dave buys some shiny new shoes and we guess how many holes before they leak or how many blisters they cause on the first round.
