Putting aside my dismal display at Hanbury Manor, I just wanted to drop a line to say what a great experience it was.

I was amazed at the commitment and fitness a lot of the competitors have, it has shown me what areas I need to work on - strength and aggression.

A BIG thank you to Chris 'Maradonna' Roberts, who is a real star - those shorts were a sight to behold! He was very generous with his advice and support - it was much appreciated.

See you in 2006.

Regards

AJ

Just how dismal was it? IMO, theres nothing more cathartic than full public disclosure for penance. :lol: ...Ron

Ron

Yep I couldn't agree more.

1st round - 225 meters - a skyed shot in the grid - the rest OB.
Last chance saloon - 277 meters - the rest OB?

The longest drive of the day was by Marcus Edblad 334 meters in the 30 second quick fire round. Mikael Lindblom won the final with 325 meters.

That's made me feel much better.

Chris

I'm very well thanks, hope you are too.

Thanks for the reply and the shaft tips - any chance of getting those photos on a disc or e-mailed?  Please contact me on my e-mail address to discuss.

I've tried to resist - but I'm already checking out the flight prices to Dublin!

Regards
