KUANG

At 6:48am the Kuang town picture taken today. Looks like a small town in outstation far far away from KL City... there has been no development despite rapid charges in KL City. Here everything is a stand still. The only main crowd were the people rushing to take the KTM Komuter train.

Players:
Andy Sian

As I on the 2nd flight we decided to play at white tee box. It is more manageable than playing from blue tee. Anyway the main objective was to have good game ad fun with the hope if getting better score!

Maybank Malaysian Open 2013 Champion

I am with Kiradech Aphibarnrat. Maybank Malaysian Open 2013

Maybank Malaysian Open 2013

Date: 21Mar - 24Mar2013
Venue: KLGCC

I have decided to be part of this tournament so I volunteered via MGA. It turn out I was assigned as mobile scorer - taking down the scores today 21Mar2013 for game number 11. The players name:
1) Unho Park - Australia
2) Marcus Both - Australia
3) M Sasidaran - Malaysia
All of them started quite well.. Only towards 2nine the worst got them. Unho got double par (twice entered water) at hole no 14. Sashi also not spared, entered the water and he got double bogey. Left Marcus Both to par the hole no 14. Damn difficult hole.

As for me although it is tiring but it it worth being involved closely to the game today.

Looking forward for Day 2 Malaysian Open...hope to see you there.

4) Dean (me)

Now I even thinking of joining this club... I wish I got friends joining together with me and that will be fun.😄😄😄

Royal Kuantan Golf Club -breakfast

It was on Sunday 09 Sep 2012. We left home very early and meet up for breakfast at a restaurant located in Ijok town, it was just along the main road.

Being the first time there, we consider lucky to meet good eating place. We even noticed on our way out a group of policemen from patrol car having their breakfast there, an indicator of local popular choice.

I would recommend this restaurant if you guys happens to pass-over this small Ijok town.

The name of the restaurant is RASA QUASEH

We were disappointed to find out later we couldn't play our golf due to local tournament held there. So we just left the place and proceed to Kundang Lakes. Luckly Kundang Lakes still accept us despite a short booking notice

KUNDANG LAKES GOLF

We have another round of good golf yesterday 02Sep12. We tee off at 10:00am and finished at 1:45pm.

We all played quite well and finished in good times. Players: Frankie, Shahrul and Dean

Game at Kundang Lakes GC

Our next golf game is on Saturday 23Jun2012 at 1:00pm. Looking forward to try out my new Titleist AP1 712 iron set.

Initially we started off the game with 3 balls, Frankie, James and Din. On the 3rd hole, Ghazali came to join us on the 3rd hole after he has just completed 18 holes in the morning!

Seremban International Golf Club - SIGC

SIGC stands for Seremban International Golf Club. This 60 years old club was formed in 1952. The trees were fully grown matured trees. I think it have a beautiful sceneries surrounding SIGC. That this is my target this coming Sumday. We managed to get 4 balls to tee off at 1:30pm 17Jun2012. My golf buddies are Shahrul, Frankie, Ghazali Abu Bakar and me were all excited to play at SIGC. Anyone who is interested to join us do forward me your contact okay. We can always organize more than 1 flight.

Good food near Glenmarie Golf club

I wish to recommend good food - Nasi Padang Kak Yen - masakan kampong. Reasonable price .

TheClub @ Kota Damansara

I wonder what has happened to the local here. Most of the workers at TheCulb @Kota Damansara were Bangla foreign workers.

So now we got bangla waiters and indon caddies...gone were the Malays or Chinese.

These bangla workers were abrupt and no courteously.

Kundang Lakes and Country Club, Friday 06Mar2010 - Tee Off @ 1:30pm

I have organised 2 flights to play at Kundang (used to be my regular place).

You would have notice that recently there has been a hike in green fees again for 2010 in various clubs like Kemuning and Tasik Puteri.

So far, Kundang Lakes has been very reasonable in charging RM40 for SSG/AGN card and RM44 for the rest of the cards. I hope the charges will remain at this rate. Players that I met, couldn't complained more...what else can you expect by paying RM40 you get bermuda fairways?

I am pleased to see that the bunker has improved a little. And now they got caddies to pamper you too. My wish is that the management of Kundang Lakes will consider to improve their greens. Not need to make a drastic changes but gradual will do. Good green is what most golfers excited about.

Players playing this Saturday are:

1. James Hwang
2. Frankie Cheang
3. Mat Fuzi Majid
4. Harun Resol
5. Ghazali
6. Rizal Jamin
7. Shahrul Kamal
8. and me,

We hope the weather will be friendly to us and fumble less especially at 2nd nine lakes side.

As for those who read my blog and wish to participate in the casual golf game please do let me know. Never try never know - this was how our golf kaki grew.

I also will welcome female golfers - this will add a little of excitement and fun.

Handicap card

I just took my handicap card test at SSG Lembah Beringin. Tested by Capt Teo who at the time of the test was the COO of SSG. I understand he has left the company. Wish him good luck.

Have you seen a buggy accident?

Have you ever get the chance to see an accident caused by buggy?

I have seen sometime back where buggy parked on the slope but did not properly engagged the brake, so it slide right into the ditch.

But this time I witnessed a buggy driven by golfer hitting a stationary car! Believe me this can happen to anyone who when already tired can loose concentration or may do silly mistakes.

This incident happened on 6th December 2009 at Kundang Lakes. Luckly the driver of the buggy had a minor injury.

So guys please be careful when handling any golf equipments okay. Golf ball high speed too, could be lethal. Just hope you are not the recipient of this mishap.

So enjoy your golf - play safe and be healthy.

Some golf courses were not attractive due to their own doings

My interest in playing golf at Kundang Lakes has grown less and less. Kundang's fairway were quite alright but not the green which was poorly maintained, despite they has grown some degree of popularity when they replaced turfmate with buggy.

The thought of me going all the way to Lembah Beringin also has waned down due to the 50% increase of green fees for SSG Pemier card holders. The dreaded distance of 70 km drive plus toll charges and higher green fees charges by SSG Lembah Berining management made Lembah Beringin my lowest choice for now.

We golfers must make our thought known to them (the golf club management). If we feel the increases of green fees is unacceptable, we should move away and find other alternative venue.

Regards,

Meet Menteri Besar Perak
