Loch Palm - breaking 80 with Buddha's Revenge!

Great round under the circumstances Simon. What a time to get Deli Belly🤦🏻‍♂️. It’s one of my worst nightmares, needing the toilet whilst on the golf course! Well done anyway, you played superbly and your caddie (Mini) was so funny and helpful in looking after you. Really enjoyed this one Simon, well done👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🏌🏻‍♂️⛳️

I had her for all 3 rounds on my last trip. She is good, she is lovely and she knows me and the course. That always helps. I always get the trots out there, it's quite simply the heat that gets to me. Cheers

Is"I've been hitting some floaters" a euphanism, given the title???? (Come on, that's as good as I've got!!!). What a lovely caddy though!!! Well done Minnie! You look, in the silence, pounds lighter!!!! (Been there, done that, got the medal.....and several bars!!! No, not those kind of bars!). +5 after 10, but, then out comes the Simon I know!!! So despite everything, you come back in +1!!! That's great golf, on a lovely course, with a good caddy, and Seve as your partner!!! What's not to like!!! Well done!!! Brilliant video. Despite the squizzles (I feel your pain) that's a ready good score. The Hairy Youngster is back!!!!

Minnie is one of the top caddies and very good company. Also a little Ting Tong! Not the first time I've dashed for the toilet in a round. I don't think Burapha has recovered from 2010 to be honest. Seve drove it miles, hit it to 15 feet on 6. But sadly lost some balls in the wrong direction. I did beat him despite his length. You can't win losing 3 or 4 balls in a round. Cheers

@thehairygolfer great video Simon, and yes, Minnie is a star! As are you. What good golf.....considering!!!!

You did well getting around that day! +6 was good in the circumstances.

I had a top caddy who knows me and my game. I played 3 rounds with her on my last trip to Phuket. It also helps being only 5540 yards.

Can we rename this episode to "the toilet diaries of the hairy golfer"..? 😅😂 You have my sympathies, I remember being on safari in Kenya years ago, after a day of photographing wild animals, we went back and had a wonderful meal at the lodge followed by coffee, a few coffees, then to be told not to drink to much coffee 🙄 Oh my goodness, more trotts than the kings royal cavalry, they call it Kenyan Gold over there, but no amount of wealth was going to stop it I can tell you.

[@thehairygolfer]

At least I had a pharmacy nearby. If you're on safari all you have is a wine cork!

I sit here watching this, loving the views and cringing with discomfort every time you suffer intestinal stress. Well done for soldiering on but I am slightly less disappointed I didn't join you. Was this caddy good at reading greens? A few times it appeared you struggled.

[@thehairygolfer]

I'd say Minnie is one of the top 5 caddies at Loch Palm. I played all 3 rounds with her on the last trip to Phuket. One of which was a 69. Yes, of course you get putts wrong. She might offer a line that is not quite right or I might over rule her line or simply hit a bad putt. I can be on the correct line but if the speed is wrong it turns more or doesn't turn at all. I don't expect PGA Tour caddies for only £10 and I know that most of the misses are my fault. The fact I could putt at all in this round is amazing. If you want to see how good she is you will have to wait for the final round of the tour.
