Playing with Poulter - Thanks to Dave Kidby for supplying the following
Last Monday Dan and Joe Sherratt travelled to Woburn to play in the IJP Design Junior Wildcard Invitational at Woburn. This is an annual event for juniors who apply with a handicap of 15 or under. Dan was originally selected as a junior to play and Joe went to support and found himself playing when a competitor didn't turn up. The day was action packed including a nearest the pin challenge on a golfing simulator trying to get the ball closer than Ian Poulter, who after deciding his first shot to three foot would be too challenging hit a second to 17 foot to get the competition under way.
A golf competition followed with two division from 0 to 9 and 9 to 15 handicaps. Joe played well to secure 5th place in the first division. Dan enjoyed the day playing in the second division. Ian Poulter was there for the whole of the day treating juniors to a golf clinic that included hitting a driver off the deck exhibiting great ball control hitting high and low shots.
The day concluded with a barbeque and an opportunity to chat to Ian. Dan and Joe returned with signed pictures of themselves with Ian and an inspirational golfing experience they will remember for a long time.
