NICKNAME: "Jim", "Jimbo", "Jimmy", "Jimbomacca", "Love Handles", "Knuckles", "Spreadsheet"

Lowest ever score: 86

Favourite course played: Hwakshill Course, Newmachar

GREATEST EVER SHOT/GOLFING MOMENT: Three over back 9 of 37 at Allestree, Derby- let's ignore the front nine.

WEAKNESS: Inability to conquer demons. Currently hole 6 at the braids (among others).

FAVOURITE CLUB: Hell to toe putter. It may be bent and rusting but it only occasionally 5 putts.

Most hated hole: Braid Hills number 6. See above - it owns me.

Worst ever score: Deep breath to reveal this one. 143. Again - Braid Hills. Four double figures tends not to help ones card. I do however claim a small victory in as much as this score didn't worsen over the last season.

Goals for the season: Succeeded in the sub 40 front/back nine but the remaining two have still to be acheived: Sub-85; tempt back Sally.

Clubs: A concoction of Prosimmon and MacGregor courtesy of Mutchy. Splurging will have to wait - damn credit crunch.
