Very lucky for the start of the week. Green Valley as usual and played in overcast conditions. The only blemish Monday (yesterday Budda holiday “no alcohol” so they bumped the price) for the outing. No problems with the course, heavy rain Sunday so mostly cart path only. I think the rule changed during the day as sometimes they ventured onto the short stuff. Its nice out there if you hit it there, ha ha I played in the last group of four and got around in about 4 hours. Considering the cart issue not too shabby. Winner winner chicken dinner Dave Ferris 39 points off 20 three with 35 points, JP Thomas (wife of Peter), Brett Jones UK off 7 and Graham Lawton US Captain, best shot of the day Project Smile near pin with a 3 putt for bogy on the card
Another successful day Tuesday with a later start. The tee time 11.22 at Pattana. Placed B & C with perfect conditions and weather. The late start attracted the low season late start rate of 1250 bht all in. Really great value. Bill Meader US 36 points off 11 Graham Lawton SCO 35 points off 10 nobody hit the green for Project Smile near pin
Another golf day where the van arrives at Soi LK and then it starts to rain. A perfect day at Eastern Star where low season prices were enjoyed. The highlight of the day was Brett Jones who was very close to our first “hole in one” on the Project Smile hole. What a treat that would have been. He told me he already has one. Yes he made the putt. Brett Jones UK 33 points off 7
Friday Treasure Hill. Still offering low season price and filled the van. I have spoken previously regaining rainy season. The course has been completing some resurfacing work together with sanding both greens and fairways. They will be looking for the natural rain to finish off their work. I feel confident that within a few weeks all this surface sand will be embedded. Having mentioned sand of greens had little or no bearing on green performance. the Shier 39 points off 13, when will this end? Bob Catlow AUS 34 points off 19 Project Smile near pin Lother, missed the putt
