The battle is on with a new battle cry

RGS i finally got to check this blog but unfortunately there wasn't much to read for the new year. The new year game was a washout but that was deliberate cos'the birdie on that par three favourite was too much to handle with a four skins advantage. Then came the appreciation golf for the new Deputy Minister and that too was a let down with 'snowman' ever so eager to pop up when you least expect an unwanted x'mas gift. Good thing though cos the organisers were generous to reward the 'Bomoh' with a nice carry bag for his effort to ward-off the rain for the whole afternoon although it was clear that the rain was about to come any minute after the first group tee-off at 1.18pm. After exhausting all my energy to ward-off the rain you really can expect the bomoh to last all the 18 holes. It was only by the stroke of luck that the final hole show some sympathy and although the 10 foot putt did not earn a birdie it was good enough to prevent the bomoh from a slow walk to the 'skin specialist'. But things could change by this weekend and although one visit to the driving range would probably not do much justice to the swings it's the effort and enthusiasm that will make the difference particularly when playing against the perpetual nemesis ---- you know who. So till saturday then when this blog could be updated with glee.

  1. JS,

    In golf there is such thing as "Comfort Zone" or "In the Zone" unfortunately few believe that. When you are in the zone, you really scorched your nemesis. As the world watched in horror and disbelief how 60 seconds of 7 point in ritcher scale earthquake can bring Haiti to its knees, you were flexing your muscles playing RGS who golf is in utter shamble!

    It's not to say your victory is hollow, rather my loss is just too bitter to swallow. But like they say, to recover one must be prepared to consume quinine, though how bitter the taste.

    cheers. RGS
