Highlight pictures to see players best round
Craig Albon Handicap 22. On my day can play easily below my handicap but then i can be totaly shit as proved in last two round 77 & 108 thats how inconsistant i am. Had a banana slice 12 months ago but seems to be sorted now. Mini Masters Champ 07 & 08. I could possibly be also taking the title of champion club chucker, Cart Kicker & Tee Marker Wacker. Got a little angry on 2nd round at Bentham. Got to now be thinking of courses for next Year
Ian Preston (Preston, P )Handicap 19. Ian is a very Big Hitter on his day hit it futher than anyone i know, but if he tries to hard to spanky-spanky gets some wicked slice. Ian's anger problems seem to have now been sorted out, only very rare outburst (like the 17th read futher). Recently won a medal and was docked 2 so will be even more upset that he has to give people more shots. Very unlucky not to win this years Mini Masters was out in the lead by about 5 shots on the par 3 17th ,and decided rather than playing his ball he would make sandcastles in the bunker. Then he decided to throw his club, rakes & abuse things, his lob wedge looked like a chain saw the way it snapped and ripped through the branches in the trees to the left of the 17th. So still Club throwing is still his speciallity.
Paul Marsden (Marzy, The Dong) Handicap 19. Paul is a 1 of the best golfers in our group, should have won 2006 mini masters and should have done better this year, he was my tip to win. Yet again it was his 3rd round that screwed him, so he then decided to do the right thing and drink and mess about on the golf course like we all like to do. like moving the 5th pin off the green to really confuse the leading group (cheers Paul). Cant ask for better company around the course very funny and is a good golfer. Paul Very rarly hits over his hanicap and hits a long ball.
Rich Ellershaw (Ellers) Handicap 23. Rich is the most chilled out player on the golf course doesn't matter how shit he is playing doesn't get angry, throw clubs etc. On his day can hit it as far and well as all of us, but struggles with his hook at times and dresses like Ian Polter(think he must be his hero!!!!) Rich will be wishing that he could play the 1st day again because 2nd day he would have been right up there if not in the lead the way he played around Bentham. This years Mini Masters Long Drive Champ.
Mark Vickery (Vicks)Handicap 17. Mark is proberly the best golfer out of the normal group that play, hits the ball long and straight 9 times out of 10. Also is the most modest person i know, doenst matter if he had birdied and you messed up he would say that you had played the hole better than him. Mark really deserved to win this year with his 2nd round around Bentham when everyone else around him was messing up he was Mr consistant.
Steve Williams Handicap 28. Steve has only really started playing in last 12 months and has come on in leaps and bounds, his handicap will proberly soon be cut down. He is hitting the ball a long way at the moment. just needs to find consistancy. Personally i think he has the most natural golf swing out of us all. Dont know how steve managed to get around silloth it was 5hrs a round and this guy eats like shaggy off scooby-do he really should be about 20stone the amount he eats. He proberly had more food in his bag then clubs, balls & tees
Andy Tomlinson (Thommo) (eh) Handicap 21. What andy lacks in length off the tee he makes up with around the green eh, has a fab short game but can also hit it a good 250 off the tee eh. Cracking guy to have a round with always good company eh . Steady away tommo we should call him was consistant over 4 rounds eh personally i though he had won it eh. I played 2 round's over the 4 with him and i can't recall very many bad shots off him. eh
Jed Charmer Handicap 25. Jed won the 1st mini masters in 2006, and was in contention last year even with his flid arm after flipping the Go-Kart. Jed is the only player i know that can play better after 10 or more cans of stella on a round and if you cant see him you can usually hear him
Craig Marsden Handicap 26. Has won the wooden spoon the last 2 years running, hopefully he will be playing this year to hold onto his undisputed title of wooden spoon holder!!!
Richard Westwood (Westy) Handicap 14. New to the mini masters this year but could be a faviourate, hits the ball a long way and usually straight has recently been playing in the single figures. Is prone to club throw and snap clubs if it is not going his way so watch out. Finished Joint 2nd in his debut year, Very good company around the course and some of his 1 liners over the 2 days were brill. Hopefully will be out playing more with us.
Adam Wilcox Handicap 28. Another new face to the comp this year could well be in contention for Craig Marsden's Wooden spoon. Adam has been improving over the last 12 months increadbly. Recently beat Rich and was only 1 shot behind myself so anything can happen!!! Proberly a good job Adam didn't play think we would still be in the goorse looking for adams balls now, westy recons adam would have possibly pushed 600+ over the 2 days
Brian Stevenson Handicap 18. Another new addition to the comp this year, only seen brian play twice and from what i've seen could be a dark horse. Very consistant golfer. Brain played crap around silloth then 2nd day came from no-where to 4th 3 shots off the lead. Also hopefully will be out more with us on friendly rounds.
