Bung Ghazaly of CIMB was kind enough to organize a mini-tournament at KLGCC on Saturday 16 July 2011. I was absent during the last tournament but the defending champion played in my flight, Hj Nor Zainal who scored 95 gross became champion, wow..95 can be come champion? Why not ? We all are weekend golfers who played to keep the body in shape and to get the excess fat and salt out of our body! Anyway I received the invitation via SMS when I was in Awana Genting for a Market Research brainstorming and that was an exhausting exercise. The hotel gave me a complimentary flight to play on Friday as we are their corporate client and sure they want our organization to use their venue and facilities in the future. 

I reached Kundang's Tasik Biru for breakfast at 7.20 am and most of the guys were nearly finished with their breakfast. There were Zahari (Jai), Sharol, Hj Zainal (Atek) and one new friend whose name I forgot to ask. I tried the new LATAR highway a few days after it was opened but guess what? It does not have exit at Kundang but they have entry point there! Using that route saved me 5 km from my Selayang home from the usual Sg Buluh Kelab Rahman Putra routing.

Bung Zaly laid out the rules to all participants at the 1st tee box, there were 16 of us all eager and excited for this golf adventure, ok we will do it using System 36 Stableford using handicap of the day. I was on the second flight with my regular kakis, Jai, Atek, Sharol and we played over and above our regular handicap.

My game was not so good but quite consistent so did my flight mates. When we calculated the points none played better than 94, I scored 49 and 45 playing off the Yellow Tee. Well, short hitters like me would have long approach on Par 4s but I survived and emerged the joint leaders with Khairuddin (Yob) who returned 46 and 48 gross. My flightmate Sharol scored 95 gross and got 2nd overall placing in addition to the 213 meter longest drive effort. Senor Omar beat me by 3 feet for the NTL effort and Senor Harun beat Yob by 1 meter for the NTP (3.8 meter).

Bukit Beruntung East course

Saturday Morning 19 June 2010 started journey from Selayang to Salam 1 Restaurant at Bukit Beruntung for roti canai and teh tarik. Already waiting at the restaurant were Sharol and Bojai as they came together in one car. Hj Katek called to say he has just passed the Rawang R&R, OK looks like everybody on time!

I asked for roti canai, 2 half boil eggs and kopi O and further requested for kuah kari kambing..and that's when the shock came..the kuah kari kambing is RM 1.50, just the kuah...with kambing RM 4, forget it Bhaiya.., just give me Dalcha..Mamak Oh Mamak..

Registered for golf at the counter..no discount cards here, just pay RM 75 each and you get your receipt and buggies and off we go to the East Course! The East Course is much better maintained than the West Course..only that buggy is allowed on track only, the West Course allows buggy from tee to green!

Bangdolah, Bojai and Sharol all played decent golf but Hj Katek looked like lemah syahwat a bit..ever since he was transfered to HQ in KL, he is overloaded with work, how different it was when he was at the oil deck..the last 2 weeks he played, apa ni, driver tak jadi..flop shot pun hancuss..putting lagi la..tak yah cerita, good luck at his next game.

Sharol produced a driving show for the ages..260 meter on the fairway, he has done that quite regularly nowdays but just 40% of the time..Bojai played his best scoring 89 and me just 90.

We stopped for a photo shoot at the scenic Hole 16, a 190 meter Par 3 from the Blue T-Box. We finished at about 1.00 pm and me off to Kundang Lakes for another golf appointment with Kakigolf members, waiting for me there were Faris,Bob Daly and Syaiful COO..

Ahh..I love 36 holes golf on Saturday.
