We've put Toby on an NBSA handicap of +21, hope we haven't been too harsh!
Well done to all our lads who travelled up to Newark for this one.
:bravo:
Do you know when the next one is?
We had very tough draws due to the generous handicap for a few local players but i think wayne did very well to get into the final, he was giving some crazy starts and to progress to the final is a good achievement.
May go to the next one, need to practice harder !!!!!!! :laugh: :laugh:
Steve - I think we have his handicap right. He will definetly be cut by Dave for the next Newark comp.
But Dave didn't know his standard yesterday so couldn't make a judgement call, which I totally agreed with.
Toby is a very good player and on the day I couldn't live with him off +42, 21 may have been more suitable.
But he played great all day and well done to him, he beat some good players to win.
Thank you for your compliments Wayne it means a loat mate! ;) It was a great day and i believe i did justify myself for the win. How ever I think that my very high handicap didn't give you a fair chance if im honest. Was a great day and a pleasure to play in the tournament against some great people! ;)
Toby - you fully deserved the win - I was very impressed with your play.
You are going to be one to watch.
I hope I don't get to play against you too often :bravo:
Thank you very much Wayne :) I was very happy with my play :happy: Not sure i'm good enough to beat you off scratch yet lol but hopefully one day :)
You did very well to get to the final aswell, such a pleasure to play you and thanks for being such a gent :) Hope i get to play you many more times in the future and have some really good games :)
