BAXTER'S BIRDIE BLITZ
Baxter Boys start the year with some impressive scores

With temporaries out on the first four greens, it was Frostmeister Geoff who took advantage of the conditions to charge into a three-under handicap, followed by Tony who was charging towards his best-ever score.

As the frost eased and the proper greens were restored, Geoff faltered and everyone held their breath as Tony finished six holes two-below handicap.

With three holes to go, the sun shone down on the baxter boys and the Perivale Parrots swooped overhead summoning the greatest two-hole patch in Baxter history. The seventh hole, having been a major stumbling block for most of 2000 was suddenly humbled. One bogie, two pars and three birdies and the boys were on a charge. Con, Dave and Steve all notched their first Perivale birdies of the year, Geoff's par put him two under handicap and Tony's had now put him on for a four-under.

As if this wasn't enough, there followed four pars on the eigth, including three-pointers for Tony and Geoff. Scores at this stage were: Con 34 Geoff 36 Steve 36 Tony 36 Dave 37 ...... Mike was way behind after a losing struggle with the temps. The record of 40 was on the cards .... Con needed a 6 to equal, whilst Geoff, Steve and Tony needed birdies.

At the end of the day, no-one bettered a seven, but with Mike the only player below 18 points, the new season looks set to be a proverbial hum-dinger!
