Useless Golf Gift of the Week

The wine is called “Handicap”. Which insane person came up with that idea?

Long Irons rule

My game is definitely coming together these days. After playing my handicap yesterday for the first time this year I then played 24 stableford points on a quick 9 holes at GC Stolper Heide tonight (despite a blackout at the par 5 fourth that lead to a 10).

Two higlights: the chip from the greenside of the second hole that went in for par (my first chip in ever) and the bunker shot at the eigth that landed smoothly on the green and lead to par.

All in all, the long irons make me totally forget about my woods, even when I land in the rough, the recovery shots kick ass. Par fives can be reached in three with irons only, the plus in accuracy off the tee helps a lot. I hope I can pull this off at the next tournament.

 
 
 

Bowler Tour

The Bowler Tour is around since 2004, I just bumped into one of their flyers two days ago on the driving range. On March 6th – upcoming saturday – they will play their first annual tournament at GC Prenden: the Caddie Cup.

It looks like this won’t be your ordinary tournament as the flyer clearly states Dresscode: Goldfinger. Two player team up and share a bag that will be carried by the teampartners alternately hole by hole. Apart from your usual special valuation there will be one called “Best Outfit”. So you better get those knickerbockers and hickory clubs out and play in style. Players Party will be celebrated in the Capitol Yard Golf Lounge.

The Bowler Tour plays two more tournaments this year, the Martini Cup on the am 15. of July 2006 and the Bowler Golf Cup on October 7th.
