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

Saturday was scheduled for the first of the winter shotgun starts but a wet weekend the week before meant a rethink and normal tee of times to take account of a number of match play events.

Competition of the day was Stableford 3 Grades and a further round in the Shirley Links Shootout. In the heavy conditions Shirley was playing every inch of its full distance with absolutely no run and a requirement of firing the ball to the pin on holding greens. In the Senior grade 37 points was a popular score with the first three all finishing on that number with positions settled by countback - Phil Loughlan from Tony Park then David Wallace.

The Intermediate grade participants recorded the high points tally. Ross Campbell had the best round of the day with 41 from Tony McKeogh on 39 with David Barley & Ian Walker on 38 in that order again by countback. In the Juniors David Blair was at the head of the field with 38 from a host of others on 35, Chris Barraclough, Don McEwan, Yoshiyuki Tamaki & Alan Day.

For those lucky enough to post a two the pool was $140 with each of the 11 winners receiving $12.75. The jackpot grew to $120.00 and was not struck and neither was nett eagles now with a new total of $35 going forward. Nearest the pins were worth $35 and won by Ian Currie (3) & Sam Hetherington (11) while on 18 Rod Hayes collected the Linden Leaves sponsored prize for being closest to the pin for 2.
