Spanish Invitational Staking

[Rookie (Rodney)]

I have been invited to this golf event alongside a few fellow Blondeites. The reason I am asking for staking is because I would like to get the forum involved on our Spanish holiday.

The rules are simple, we will be playing Stableford rules (points). 18 holes for 5 days straight. We all play off our handicaps (6 of us), and the winner will lose 2 shots on next round, 2nd place will lose 1 shot, middle two will stay the same, and 5th will gain one shot, with 6th gaining 2 shots.

We will be playing €5 for each of the following.. front nine, back nine, overall and par 3's. There are 4 par 3's on the course. This is a potential loss of €175 over the course of the week, for which I will be charging €21 per 10%.

Why am I charging at 1.2 you may ask? Well, the reason for this is not only do I play off the joint biggest handicap, therefore having the best chance of winning, but I have also guarenteed us an extra shot for every round by using the rule "best dressed gets one extra shot for the round". After seeing this rule, and realising how vital this one shot could be, I went out and spent £1100 yesterday on golf apparel. If this doesn't tell you I mean business I don't know what will.

So, handicaps are for each of the players :

Dave 'Leknave' Jones   (16)
Thomas 'hitthehole' Middleton (17)
James 'RoyalFlush' Dempsey (19)
Brent 'The Horn' Horner   (28)
Ben 'TheOracle' Turnstill (28)
Dave 'Dubai' Shallow (tbc)

Strengths of my game :

I have many strengths to my game, but first I will start with my weaknesses. I am poor at the following, Driving, Pitching & Putting. BUT, my strengths are second to none, on a recent trip with Dave and James, we played the par 3's and I won both on the round to ship the money off them both times. As there are 4 x par 3's on the course I feel nobody will take advantage of this like I will. My trusty 8 iron will get us on the green and we will 2 putt it out for par, guarenteeing us the money. Other strengths include, knocking out opponents with our tee shots despite them standing behind me, driving opponents towards a lake and diving out just before we go in without them even noticing, and finally knowing how to dress around a golf course. All of which will be helping me win across the week.

What I will provide :

I will provide pictures of me winning best dressed each day. And evening updates on how that days play went. Also, if neccessary, pictures of my opponents in the lake in a buggy, or sparked out on the floor with a golf ball imprinted in their heads.

Do not miss this opportunity at taking money off of some of Blonde's greats. I AM NOT A 28 HANDICAPPER AT ALL.

Please contact me if you require any further details, or post on here if you would like to take a slice.

So you six are going to Spain and playing golf for 5 consecutive days and you expect us to believe you wont be drinking?

Also very important and probably a stupid question ...... will buggies be used?

Of course, thats where one of my strengths come in!

They may be drinking, but I am there purely for the money, I wouldn't have spent £1100 to gain an extra shot per round otherwise would I.
