BURAPHA
Monday 12th May
51 golfers played today, the usual Outbacker numbers swelled by the visiting MBMG Pattaya Matchplay Golf League team from 'The Golf Club'. Burapha was very quiet and were able to split the tee, 7 groups off the C nine & six groups off of D. Although playing from the white tees, with the exception of Don Pavlovic (38pts), Pimusa (39pts) & Capt' Bob (36pts), the course was the winner today. A big hello to some more Norfolk boys, Richie & Colin and congratulations on getting up so early!

Ode to Moori
As he picked himself up out of the Queensland dust
just a couple of yards from the gate,
he looked up at me with his lopsided grin
and said, "where's me passport mate?"
Apparently Ian Moore, aka Moori, was coming for a week's golf with his mates Dalby & Bryce. On the Sunshine Coast, at 2.30 in the afternoon on Thursday, he was hitching a trailer up to his Ute and drove off leaving his passport and puncture repair kit on the roof. When he discovered the loss, he franticly telephoned everybody explaining his predicament but resigned himself to waving goodbye to his two mates.
Meanwhile, back at the ranch, as luck would have it, his mother ran over the puncture repair kit and remembered that Moori had said, "my passport is with the puncture repair kit!" She stopped immediately and began seaching along the side of the road, and there it was, covered in dust but in one piece.A high speed drive from the airport to home and back followed in time for them all to catch the midnight flight.
Isn't that what Mums are for?
Eleven Outbackers turned up for the early morning TOOs at Phoenix, one of them was Moori. He was to be unlucky again and one of the marshalls explained to him that he was not allowed to play in his designer 'billabong' denim shorts. They were smart but rules is rules, so off he went to change. Nobody knows what he paid for the new pair out of the Phoenix pro shop, but he played the whole round will the label still on, I wonder if he took them back!
Nothing flusters this man, having won A Division on Friday at the Navy with 38 points
( off h'cap 4), he won again today with 41 points, 71 gross off the stick!
Well done mate!

MOUNTAIN SHADOW
Wednesday 14th May
Geoff Doody, sponsor of the 5th Outbacker Birthday Cup, was joined by 21 golfers to celebrate his special day. The winner of the cup was David Evans with an outstanding 36 points round this tricky course. The A & B division winners, May & Bryce also played well, each scoring 35. There was a quite remarkable TWOs story on the short Par 3 5th. The Doody's (in the news again!) and Trudy Chadbourn were all in a line on the green. Geoff, who was farthest away, putted first, 'you'll get a good read off this,' he said, and no sooner said, holed it for his two, The two girls promptly followed him, both also holing the putts for their twos.
Geoff, who was joined by many more friends later in the day back at the ranch, treated everybody to cottage pie in addition to ringing the bell on numerous occasions. Congratulations from The Outback Golf Bar and thanks for the day from all your friends and fellow golfers.

PLUTALUANG
Friday 16th May
Here we are again, two Friday's in a row at the 'Navy' course, as a result of last week's unofficial holiday, and Eastern Star asking for holiday rates! May Larose was there again and Bruce McAdam, who looks after the Outback Golf's Bar summer eclectic at Burapha, also had a good round. W J King took Div C with an unusually low score of 32!
This is a popular venue but the exclusive deal agreed with Siam's new Plantation course, means that the home every Friday of Pattaya's No 1 golf bar, the Outback Golf Bar, will be 10am at Siam Plantation. Call us to play this top class course!
