Men
Members contested a single stableford competition generously sponsored by Footes Childers Pharmacy in less than ideal golfing conditions, which was reflected in many of the scores.
In A Division Ray Walker was the only player on the day to better par, scoring 39 points to win from Bill Cowan on 35. In B Division Curtis Fredriksen levelled par recording 36 points, just one better than runner up Jeff Freeeman.
Leigh Cronin won the A Division pinshot on 1 & 10 putting his drive just 1.99 metres from the hole. Larry Pershouse won the B Division approach on the same hole. On 4 & 13, Ivan Philpott won the A Division pinshot, while Larry won the B Division approach.
Members greatly appreciated the range of prizes and after game snack provided by our generous sponsors.
Next Saturday the club will sponsor a single stroke competition as part of preparing for the championhships beginning the following week.
