The Week That Was............

Saturday saw a Pairs match on Aggregate Stableford for the P.P.Hall Trophy notwithstanding the dire weather forecast the day progressed in a pleasant enough fashion (although slightly chilly) for the large field and once again the scoring was of a good nature.

Returning the best card of the day were the early morning players of Niven Boyle (38) and Richard Pearse (41) for a combined total of 79 a mere 6 clear of the next best pairing. In second on 73 by countback were Andrew Gillespie (34) & Tracy Tatom (39) from Paul Dunn (37) & Simon Yorke (36) while David Blair (35) & Ahmad Hosseeini (37) on 72 points were fourth.

There was a huge two's pool of $360.00 which was just as well because there were 21 winners each receiving only $17.15. There was a new jackpot amounting to $55 and this was collected by John Sinclair. Nearest the pins were worth $35 and were won by Ian Satterthwaite on 3 and Grahame Buist on 11.

On a day where low payouts abounded the new nett eagles pool of $55 was struck after hole five was drawn with Paul Dunn - a true eagle 3, Brian Nixey, Don Rae & Chris Brockett were successful - $13.75 each. On the sponsored holes David Page won the Linden Leaves prize for closest to 2 for 2 (he told me he subsequently made the putt for birdie) and Mitchell Vincent won the Benjarong Thai Cuisine prize for the closest to 18 for 2 again. I wonder if he will give this voucher to Amanda and Andrew or whether he and a friend will go??
