The swindle bet will be on from Sat and it produces a few challenges during the lockdown including there being no cash or change available at the club so all pay outs have to be divisible by £5.00.
There have been many discussions over the months on the swindle bet and I’ve decided to use the lockdown to trial a few ...

As you will have seen from GeeAd's Swindle emails, fourballs are now allowed on the course along with sensible distancing in and around the clubhouse. So the Swashies' times are back on, in a pre-drawn format through Mr Adams.
On that, I hope all will join me thanking Graham for his work in both organising tee times and manually sorting ...

Competition was full-on though, the 4 qualifying teams all putting out teams for mixed Swindle groups of stableford. Individual placings of scores going ...

Managed to this picture off Dom which I had been meaning to do. Last month, Surrey National stalward Ralph saw in his 80th with a whole heap of Pistols.
Cracking picture and a slightly belated happy birthday to Ralph. His is a Guinness if anyone is near the bar, ta.

Another Swindle Ryder Cup year and another draw... same as last year.
Both teams favourite fixture I'm sure and today saw a cracking match between Swashies and Originals. We were very luck with the weather, we all assumed the rain and wind would prove nasty. We had the wind, which really picked up for 20mins towards the end of ...

Damp and mild over the weekend, and Saturday saw four Ryder Cup teams playing with the Pistols having their off week.
Greens and course conditions both soft. Certainly better than last week when the Sunday comp were faced with frozen greens the whole round compared to Saturday. Shame the Order of Merit points were awarded - you ...
