Marty takes the 2013 Hole in One!

Marty turns in one of his most controversial performances both on and off the field to take the 2013 Hole in One. Where to start. The beginning. Firstly he needed to sort his handicap out. He played enough shit golf to get to a 23 and he was ready. Marty did his research (or Nicki did if for him....). He needed to find a course close to the Tron that was designed by a left-handed golf course designer to provide left-handers with a comfortable stabie gathering experience. He found it. Waikare or Royal Te Kauwhata as the locals call it. Needless to say he cleaned up the Stabies and the rest of history. Lochiel was tough for everyone, mainly thanks to the hangovers everyone was sporting. Saint Andrews, the bunkered wonder of the Tron finished most of the field off as Marty cantered home to take the tourney.

Highlights and lowlights.

- Steve Keane's hospitality was much appreciated
- Dinner at Chim Choo Ree was outstanding
- The weather was fantastic
- Marty and Smith getting in at 5.15am (we bow to your stamina boys.... or was that your insanity..)
- Simon hauling in 20 Stabies at Waikare, impressive
- General swearing levels, according to the HIO Swearometer we had a 15% increase in the use of Fuck and a whopping 25% increase in the use of Cunt compared to the 2012 HIO...
- Marty's scoring system (apparently there was one...)
- Marty's Sunday morning belligerence (go to bed earlier grumpy..)
- Darcy's flatulence (if he didn't at least Shat his pants on Sunday it would be a miracle..)
- Scott turned in his least controversial participation in the history of tournament golf, welcome back
- Grant, Mark and Steve, welcome to the Hole in One boys.
- Ben and Darcy (aka Ernie and Bert)
- John Key jokes...
- Trev and Sickman on the pool table


All in all another great weekend of golfing madness.

Thanks and congratulations to Marty!

NB: Ben Pegler to organise the 2014 Hole in One

Since winning the Precious Trev has stopped getting haircuts..

The Precious has struck again boys. Trev's not been the same since he made off with the greatest prize in golf. Who knows where he'll end up if he backs up his win from last year...

Marty promising a feast of golfing in the Tron for the 2013 Hole in One!

Tired of ocean breezes and sunny days and still protesting at being woken up 'too' early at the 2012 anniversary Hole in One at Matarangi, Marty is taking the boys to the Tron for this fiesta of feral golf.

Kicking off on the 22nd of November at Royal Te Kauwhata (aka Waikare GC)
Saturday the 23rd at Lochiel (including their Xmas Golf Tourney)
Finally to Saint Andrews for the decider.

Friday evening will be being hosted at Stephen Keane's home at 26 Gambia Grove Flagstaff, Hamilton. Use your GPS or bring an aborigine because you will not find the place otherwise..

Saturday we are out for dinner at one of the Trons finest restaurant.

Please remember to bring your passports, preferably an armed guard or at very least a weapon of your choice.

Scratchings this year include

Conrad - still boycotting after the Terrace Downs incident
Shaun - failed to gain clearance from his management
Ant - appears to have commitment issues..

See you on Friday bitches!
