Soft touch, soft landing

3 Oct 2009 - One Oh Four

Low ROI, High Risk. That's what we can describe JS scoreline. A One Oh Four!!!! ( layman says 104). We do not condone good play and JS is our ambassador. We do hear the shout and scream and the bravado plus the humility though. That guy is good from the bunker over and over again. That explain my lack of sleep Saturday night. "Ne Re Nga Nymem Moon skorah?" Like a roller coaster, golf game has its up and down. Wait some people has more down and other always up. Why? JB should be able to pass his opinion on that. On his good day, JB could roast the field. Initial LD is written all over the shaft. On his bad day, my favourite time, his infamous Honma slam the baddest atop there Borneo height where it met its match and did not do better down at Siol and Demak. That's four up by lunch time JB. Soon I'll have my hand's full. China here I come.

AP, the famous "top of the pop" play today still managed a respectable 99! Ma Dato! 99?

I hear cries from KL that this blog promotes unbalanced and outright controversial content. Blog exist just for that and I cannot help it with score like that.

APIWATW ( A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words)

Upping The Ante at Borneo Height!

Once in awhile in an ideal world, one should spend time on a higher ground to have a better view of the world below. Only then will one be able to see things in a new perspective and dimension. Take for example our recent trip to the Bidayuh Golf Course ( an unofficial name though ). My first impression was thought to be very common, quiet road curving through lust landscape with cool breeze coupled with an odour of success.

( Heading into the mist just for golf! )

Andrew Joseph (AP) flatly "SMSed" me to express his fear of driving up to the resort. Fear no more. The road up is as gentle as Sharifah Aini's..." But on a curious note, as with anyone associated with the first trip, memory and a good one is a must. But by topping the golf ball constantly is not my idea of "higher-level game". But that exactly what AP did. Hmm I wonder if that's a typical fear associated with anything first-time. The jungle though will have lots to wonder whose iron is erratic as ball after ball settled in the jungle. Hole 16 was roasted with AP's miss hits!

RGS didn't do well although the mere act of playing up there is a good memory by itself. JS? "This guy is good at the bunker!". Watch bunker at hole 19! You may not get out of it by one shot. My good friend only time will tell if his swing is as good up at the mountain as in KGS. No room for error! JB? JB bo. "What do you think if my standard?" I think nothing of standard after his ball richochet off the big rock 90 degree west! Not a chance JB.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Lets see.

Chance to shine at SIC Golf

On 25th September, 2009 YB Datuk Peter Nansian Nguse was officially appointed by Dato Sri William Mawan Ikom was appointed as "Community Captain" in conjunction with the Sarawak Inter-Community Golf 2009. As a Bidayuh, I then deduce what this mean is that our YB Datuk Peter will spearhead as the captain of the Bidayuh Community Team.

So as a fellow Bidayuh I urge who ever represents our community to support and play your guts out. It is an honour as I believe those selected are not merely making the number but out of merit with high hope that he would carry the good name of the Bidayuh with high golf integrity and honesty. I would also add that these selected would not merely there to wear fancy sponsored T-shirt but it represents an opportunity to shine in your golf game.

As always, YB Datuk Peter has already in place dedicated men who will sweat it out to serve and organise the team which I think what the Bidayuh is famous for, team spirit, solidarity and co-operation... especially in golf (tempted to say so!). Straunch and avid golfer like Andrew Joseph, James Sinjeng and many more are onhand to offer their free service. ( no accounting fee James please). Don't be sentitive you guys if your name is not being mentioned. Many choose to be silent supporters. Yes I heard you right.

Come 17th October, unfortunately few members of the glamour group are missing as PP choose wisely to be with his Nipponic gang somewhere in Japan. JB have also cleverly booked to be in China. Hmm are'nt we ever get tired of the slits?

Me? Oh yes. According to my recent golf results, I am indeed badly in need of a new swing guru. Not quite Hank Haney but close. Remember, the last time I changed my swing, I lost my balance and almost my wife too! So sadly as much as I like to be in the team (not automatic choice I know but I always think positive) I will be somewhere at the Las Vegas Stripp or Black Mountain Golf School. ( ahem ).

Wait you JS, AP, JB, PP.....

Oh, here's the probable line up for the Bidayuh Community Team as released by JS.
As you can see, your faithfully is obviously MIA.
