Quaich update

From http://bsvgolf.blogspot.com/

Last report from Oregon as we head home Sunday/Monday. Well done to Chris on winning his first ever Quaich - and a 40-pointer too.

I've updated the file and, as usual, it's on the Yahoo site at http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/BanchorySquashVeteransGolf/files/Summer%20Quaich/

The quick and easy version, however, is:

23	Simcox, Richard	17		1

Gary made a significant move this week and is, effectively, level with Dick once you take account of their next scores to drop. Watch out for Steve, however - he has only played 8 times and is just 66 points behind - he could be a major threat if he manages to play the last 4 games.

The leading total of 354 is currently well behind last year's winning total of 391 and it looks like this year's winning score could even be challenging the all-time low of 372 (Rob - 2008).

Looking forward to playing 18 holes again next Wednesday. I've managed just a few quick 9 holes here and there with my son-in-law and grandson over the last month. Here we are at Applegate River GC late last Friday night:

Scott and I went back there again on Tuesday and played in a 9 hole Texas Scramble. We tied for 1st place with 6 under and then had to play a shoot-out with the other team - closest to the pin from 100 yards. Great fun, but we came second in the end.

Cheers.
