5 Shots Lower
….. without changing your swing!
Club Captain Peter Brisley and Lady Captain Karen Watkins, as guests
at an Orsett GC organised ‘’Mind Factor’’ workshop, were so
impressed that they decided to book one for MKGC members.
You’ll have the opportunity to check out this amazing claim at a
specially organised evening at Mid Kent on Thursday 12th March 2015.
At the event Europe’s leading mind coach, Karl Morris, will present
the techniques successfully used with some of the world’s greatest
golfers, such as Graeme McDowell, Darren Clarke, Louis Oosthuizen,
Charl Schwartzel and Lee Westwood.
The event is specifically structured to give you Tools and Techniques
you can use instantly on the course.
Karl’s claim is that you have absolutely nothing to lose but the
frustration of Bad Golf!!
Members
Can Win
£1000
Before disappearing on holiday to Egypt,
Captain Peter Brisley announced details
of his ’’Win £1000’’ Patio Bonanza Draw.
Tickets at £5 are on sale from behind the
Bar with the draw for the massive £1000
cash first prize and 10 runner up prizes
of £50 taking place on the May Day
Bank Holiday following the Lady
Captain’s Charity Day shot gun event.
Proceeds from the draw are going
towards the much needed replacement
of patio furniture. Rather than being
taken from the capital projects fund, the
Draw was seen as a ‘fun’ way to raise
the required sum.

On the course - Hole 1
Following the Forum in November, a Course Development Sub Committee was set up amongst a
cross section of members volunteering to consider the proposals made by consultants EDI and
make recommendations to the Board as to future action. Three members, Bruce Galbraith, Anne
Oxtoby and Rod Fisher, working with Lee Sayers course Manager, Peter Lake Greens Director,
Paul James Competitions Director and Steve Davies Chairman have brought forward responses
1-7 below on EDI’s proposals for action on holes 1, 14 & 18.
EDI Proposal
Sub Committee Response
1. The first shot of the day with a long iron, the proximity of the road, the tree
lines and vegetation both converging "inwards" towards the green, the lack of
definition to the immediate approach, the distant green approach and the
penal bunkering all add up to a very tough opening shot.
Safety signage to be placed adjacent to
waiting area and tee. Clear undergrowth
and trim back vegetation on left hand
side of fairway.
2. At present the 1st hole does not have a fairway. A fairway acts as a sense of
reward and guidance for the average golfer and a directional aid for the accomplished golfer. Adding a new tee to fairway path can create a directional
aid to line-up on.
Extend fairway from existing apron
towards the tee. Discuss tee to fairway
path with Lee.
3. The internal tree boundary to the RHS does not help the safety of the hole.
The linear nature of the trees aims the golfer towards the green and left hand
side of the green. The further left you "Tee up" the more pronounced the
effect. Break rhythm of the trees by removing those directing golfers inwards.
Remove trees 5-8 on right hand side of
fairway. Removal of the large conifer on
front right hand side of green will allow
for easier recovery shot.
4. The cross bunker is penal, encouraging golfer to hit higher to carry its
location. removing the bunker would allow higher handicap golfers to run the
ball along the new fairway.
Remove right hand side of cross bunker
5. The deep right hand greenside bunker encourages golfer to hit away and
towards boundary. Removing this bunker and creating a more friendly grass
swale/run off area would allow easier recovery shots from the right hand side.
Extend the green front right over
existing right hand bunker.
6. Green should be extended to back right quadrant to offset a shortened tee.
The tee will not be shortened for this
phase, so no extension of the green..
7. Bring green in from the left with bunkering to the left hand side of the green,
front to back to sit between the green and boundary for extra safety.
8. Reduce existing tee area by removing 1.5m minimum from left hand side.
2
The Shrimper - March 2015

Agreed
Placement of the tee blocks will achieve
desired effect.

On the course - Hole 14
EDI Proposal
3
Sub Committee Response
1. The existing Tee lines up correctly with the intended fairway, the
high nature of the tee creates a launch-pad effect over the valley
to an uphill, side sloped fairway sitting to a similar level. The turning point for the majority of members currently sits too far up the
fairway towards the green, and should be brought back towards
the flat part of the fairway, which is the furthest away from the
existing boundary.
Safety signage to be placed adjacent to waiting
area and tee
2. New Tee's should be considered situated on the higher east side
of the maintenance shed. This would allow for the desired
landing area and reduce the risk of tee shots leaving the golf
course. The length of the hole would be increased but the second
shot would be from a flatter lie.
New tees will not be considered for "Phase1" of
the project. Implementing our recommendations
will allow time to assess their effectiveness.
3. Pushing the fairway towards the 5th would allow for the maximum
distance from the boundary. Tree/copse removal must be undertaken to the entire left hand side, from the tee to the large Oak at
the base of the hill. Keeping only one line of trees between the
5th and 14th fairways.
Agreed, this would include five dying trees at
170yard mark. Large tree on LHS of fairway at
150yd mark to be retained until fairway changes in
place. Further assessment at that time.
4. Bunkering and thick rough should be added to the right hand side
of the fairway/hill to encourage the golfer to follow the fairway.
Agreed, together with tree planting along boundary inside white post area
5. The green should be moved away from the boundary line into the
huge space leading to the 15th tee. If moved bunkering should be
placed on the right hand side between green and boundary.
Left hand greenside bunker to be removed and
green extended to left hand side, pulled in from
the right. Bunker to front right hand side of green.
6. Bunker on the left hand side of the green should be removed and
replaced with a grassy hollow
See above
7. Create a tee to fairway pathway for linear direction to the tee shot
Further discussion with Course Manager

On the course - Hole 18
EDI Proposal
Sub Committee Response
1. Hole rises gently to the green from the tee and has a side slope from
right to left. A tree belt divides the 10th and 18th fairways. There are
a couple of larger trees to the category 1 turning point on the LHS
which encourage the golfer to aim and hit to the right hand side of
the fairway to feed the ball to the centre of the fairway.
The "fairway" trees are a feature of the hole
and will be retained during phase 1.
2. There is additional room to extend the hole to the rear of the existing
tee beyond the boundary on the old road.
Not recommended for this phase, the added
yardage would be difficult to justify.
3. The existing tee for the men's category is elevated which gives
additional help to the launch trajectory of any golf ball. Consideration
should be given to lowering the tee to reduce the launch angle and
velocity of the tee shot.
4
Agreed
4. Both sides of the tee should aim towards the centre of the fairway.
Agreed
5. The vegetation along both sides of the hole, particularly the lower
LHS side where you can't see through to the 10th is thick and uncompromising. Consideration should be given to thinning the under
story out to encourage golf balls to be hit towards this tree belt. Removing this tree belt will open up the entire left hand side of the hole.
At present the golfer is being pushed towards the 1st hole and the
boundary which is being breached by out of bounds shots.
Removal of some trees and thinning out of
the right hand side of the copse behind the
ladies tee, combined with clearing the under
story and trees to the tree belt between the
10th and 18th should bring the LHS of the
fairway into play
6. The hedge line in front of the tee should be removed to open up the
long vista through to the clubhouse.
Agreed
7. The pathway should be moved to the extreme right hand side once
the hedge is cleared.
Agreed
8. The trees to the corner of the dog leg do not compliment the golf
hole. We would recommend that these turning point trees are removed to open up the left side, encouraging more left positioned tee
shots.
Pushing fairway to left combined with some
tree and under story removal should allow the
golfer a risk & reward shot to the green. New
bunkers to be constructed on RHS of fairway.
9. Culture a new fairway well away from the 1st and boundary
Agreed

Darren’s Newsletter
Sundridge Park Trophy (5+) First match by 25 May 2015
away to Cherry Lodge.
Darren Timms, Mid Kent’s touring professional
has finally arrived back in the UK after a winter
golf trip to Portugal. His trip lasted just over a
month and it's fair to say it was a great trip. His
main objective of the 4 weeks was to play some
competitive golf, and get some time to practice.
This was achieved by playing 6 events on the
Algarve Pro Golf Tour.
Wilding Cole Trophy (8+) First match by 25 May 2015 away
to Langley Park.
West Kent Trophy (11+) First match by 25 May 2015 home
to Wrotham Heath.
Royal Blackheath Trophy (14+) First match by 25 May 2015
home to Royal Blackheath.
Gray Cup (18+) First match by 25 May 2015, home to
Rochester & Cobham.
Composite Picture Above - a typical day in
Portugal... Practise, Putting, Gym and maybe
……..even time on the Beach!
Perman Shield (scratch) First match by 17 August 2015
away to Langley Park.
Reflecting on the trip it has been a great month
abroad, I have really enjoyed my time in the sun
(and occasional rain) and it has provided me with
some competitive golf.
Captains for these knockouts are - Sundridge Park Trophy Darren Drynan, Wilding Cole - Barry Plumb, West Kent Brian Peirce, Royal Blackheath Trophy - Dave Jackson, Gray
Trophy - Brian Weston, Perman Shield - Steve Barrow
Mail on Sunday - sadly, we lost in the first round of the MOS
away to Woodlands Manor on Sunday 15 February 3½-1½.
Joe Smith won 8/7, shooting level par. His opponent was off a
10 h/cap, the same as Joe!! ‘Mucky’ Garcha halved and the
others, Paul Johnson, Mick Helaith & Mark Gee lost narrowly.
A great day and very good hospitality.

Now back in the UK I have to finalise my plans for
the next few weeks up until Europro Qualifying
School, that's the next big thing on my calendar. I
have the next 2 weeks planned out to spend time
with my coaches and Mizuno, looking at the areas
to improve and building a plan for Tour School.
I can't wait to get the season started, 2015 is
looking bright.

Ladies Section
Mail on Sunday
Ladies Supper - Friday 27th February - for this year’s
event Mid Kent ladies have secured the services of Michelle
(‘Mickey’) Walker as their after dinner speaker.
Mickey has a formidable record as a professional golfer,
being a founding member of the Ladies European Tour and
winning six times on the tour between 1979 and 1984.
She was Europe's Solheim Cup captain the first four times
the Cup was held (1990, 1992, 1994 and 1996), captaining
Europe to its first victory in 1992. She coached the GB &
Ireland Curtis Cup team in 1994, 1996 and 1998.
She has also worked as a golf coach, radio and television
commentator and public speaker. She now leads Golf Tours
to Chile, India, Hong Kong and New Zealand on behalf of the
British tour operator Jon Baines Tours and teaches golf.
Widely travelled, Mickey has met many colourful
personalities throughout her career, providing her with a
great fund of interesting and amusing tales.
Chris Waghorne has taken on the Mail on Sunday
mantle. This has been successfully worn for some
time by Brid McInerney, who will be devoting her
time to our Bradley Cook challenge, assisting
Eamonn in his build up to Club Captaincy and …..
if she gets a moment … perhaps playing a bit of
golf!!
Chris Waghorne, in the first of her reports (we
look forward to printing many more from Chris
and the rest of the Ladies’ team captains) writes -
WE WON!
Once again the Mid Kent Ladies were drawn
against Dartford in the first round of The Mail on
Sunday competition.
Although there was a heavy frost on the day, the
greens at Dartford were soon clear for the
competition to go ahead as planned.
There is no set order of play which means the
handicap differences can be quite high for certain
games. This didn't faze the experienced team
from Mid Kent who went on to win 3 and 2 on the
day.
Special mentions go to Loo Brackpool for "taking
out" the one handicapper from Dartford who
conceded on the 16th green.
To Sheila Glass for keeping her cool on the 17th
and finishing with a birdie.
To Annette Fraser for playing out of her socks
when having to give 8 shots and still winning 6&5.
To Julia Ridley for taking the pressure and having
to take her final putt on the 18th in front of the
crowd of players and vast numbers of supporters.
To Chris Waghorne ….. for turning up and being
Captain on the day. It’s a hard life!
Ladies inter club competitions - you know that the golfing
‘’season’’ is underway when these start up. The first Ladies’
Friendly match is 1st April, Gillingham away. Sign up sheets
are on the noticeboard….. so, come on Ladies!
The Mid Kent team in the KCLGA Bradley Cook scratch
event will be captained by Brid McInerney. In the round robin
stage, we are drawn to play Lamberhurst & Sittingbourne.
Anne Oxtoby captains the Pearson Trophy team. In the initial
round robin we are drawn against Royal Cinque Ports,
Chislehurst, North Foreland and Kings Hill.
Chris Waghorne takes on the Mail on Sunday mantle, Jo
Smith the Tappin Trophy & Wendy Jackson the LA cup.

Well done Girls …. It’s a first step on
the ladder to that aeroplane to Spain
for the semi-finals!
Stop Press! The draw for the next round has
been made and we have the home advantage
against Kings Hill - interestingly our opposition at
home on Friday 20th February in the Pearson
Trophy!
Next round of Mail on Sunday has to be played by
15th March. A confirmed date will be advised as
soon as possible.

February Medal - the Shrimpers medal was held on a very
cold but calm day. The course was frosty with all temps and
it was like playing on concrete - ‘’I had as much chance of
stopping a ball on my patio as I did on these greens!’’.
Friday 10th April – Gillingham - home
It was not a day for the faint hearted, with only 13 brave
souls (or some might say stupid) turning out to play. It was a
struggle for almost all of us, but not for the Welsh wizard
Mervyn Davis. Complete with oxygen tank and mask, he
stormed ahead winning with 43 points, 7 points ahead of
second placed, Mick Mackley with 36 points. Sad to say, as
it was all temps, it was played as a non-qualifier!
Tuesday 28th April - Sittingbourne away
Costin Putter (awarded to the player with the highest
aggregate of his best six Shrimpers Monthly Medal scores).
In the event of a tie, the winner will be decided by the
seventh best score and so on. The competition runs from
January to December. The winner’s name is added to the
trophy and he is entered for the Kent Singles Championship
to represent Mid Kent Shrimpers. All you have to do is have
six good scores in the medals (there are still ten to go).
The more you enter the better your chance of winning.

Vets Open Competitions – I have details of other clubs Vets
open’s competitions which I will put on the Shrimpers notice
board for anybody who is interested in entering a team.
January 31st saw the return of the very

Shirt & slipover – There will soon be a new polo shirt & slip
over with the Mid Kent badge and ‘’The Shrimpers’’ wording
embroidered on it for sale.
For a number of years COT have been
providing living & working facilities for
disabled people around a Rare Breeds
Centre. The Centre is already very good,
but quite a challenge to maintain around
a working farm plus improved facilities
for some of the animals (larger pens etc.
etc) are requred.
The shirt will only be £15 and the slipover £25. If both are
bought at the same time there will be a reduction of £5 giving
you a bargain price of £35, the pair.
I will let you know via the Shrimpers notice board and Vets web
page when they are available.
Is this the future? - Recently things have changed …... tee
markers vandalised, walk way ropes cut, a driver stolen from
the drying room, noticeboard pens disappearing by the bucket
load and now someone who thought his need was greater than
the rest of us and has taken the reading glasses from the
Shrimpers noticeboard!!
£500 was raised on the night, all of this
going to improve the facilities for the
disabled people who work on the farm.
The winning score, 148 out of a possible
160, went to the Kinks and is the highest
COT have ever had for the particular
quiz used. Even the 21st placed team,
TakeThat, scored a respectable 80.5.
I will now have to write everything in 1” high letters or put up
with “what does it say?” So it would be nice if whoever
“borrowed” the glasses, could please return them.
Contact me with any Shrimpers Net news, comments or
photos that you would like to include in the next edition.

Take That was the name of Johnny
Barker’s team in the Music Quiz.
Taking that wooden spoon was John’s
team of son Shaun, wife Eunice,
daughter Julie, daughter in law Anita,
and son in law Kevin.

only started playing golf seriously
about 3/4 years ago but has been a
member at Mid Kent since the age of 8.
He used to play the odd game with his
Dad and Grandad.
2013 was certainly a good year for Connor Jeffrey when he
won the scratch Mid Kent Junior Open and was part of the
Junior team who were runners up in the Mid Kent ProAm.
This Junior Team, pictured above from left, are Connor,
Harry Knight and George Hamblyn.

handicap of 12. His other hobby is
football, which he plays for Higham
Eagles. He won the Junior Order of
Merit in 2013 qualifying him for the
Junior team in the ProAm that year.
In 2014, he was second in the Order of
Merit, again making the Junior team for
