Seniors
(Our iconic statue)
Do you like playing golf in a relaxed yet competitive manner?
Are you over 55?
Then get in touch with Deanwood Seniors via the Clubhouse on 01635 48772.
The Seniors ( Evergreens ) meet every Friday at 08.30 hrs.
The Captain - Raymond Bilton - is always willing to chat and can be contacted through the members section of the website or via the Pro shop.
If Friday is not convenient then there is an offshoot group (The Deans) meeting on Monday (11 am) and Wednesday ( 8 am). Their contacts are Gordon Neale and Richard Jones all contactable through the website or the Pro shop.
No matter what time of year you are guaranteed a warm welcome here!
....... make sure you know the right handicap for each tee and that you are aware of all the local rules
.

John told me about a nightmare he had last week.
He was visited by the ghost of Gloria Gaynor.
At first he was afraid then he was petrified!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
.......come and play golf with the Seniors...........
....though you might be on thin ice!

Was it something we said?

November Stableford / Eclectic
The first really frosty morning saw the majority of Seniors stay at home in the warm!
Only seven started the competition and one had to pull out due to injury!
The scores reflected the trying conditions with no-one even approaching par!

Who is this?

Have you heard this one ?
3 men were sentenced to death.
Their final days arrived early in December.
When asked the Frenchman replied he wanted Boeuf bourguignon with wine for his final meal.
The morning after his final meal the Frenchman was taken out and shot
The German asked for Bratwurst and beer
The next morning he was taken out and shot.
When the Englishman was asked he said he wanted a big dish of strawberries and Devon cream
'Strawberries!' said the prison governor 'Where are we going to get strawberries in the middle of December? They're out of season!'
'I can wait' said the Englishman
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, first there were 9 then 8 and 7 eventually set out in the rain and soon after, sleet..and It was COLD!..
After the first 9 holes we became 5 (Famous five?)…
We started with a ‘drop the BEST score format’ and ended with a Texas ..but it didn’t matter because we gave all the entry fees to Pudsey anyway..So nobody won any money
We ended in SUNSHINE…
For the record, one team scored a gross of 79, the other team scored 69 gross.. officially, the game was abandoned…
That’s all…

Did I?
Play Golf or just spoil another walk?
As you walk off the course next time ask yourself the following questions:
Did I enjoy myself?
Have I signed my card?
Did I replace my divots and repair my pitch marks?
You should answer YES to them all!
