The course has softened up quite a bit this week after a mixed bag of weather. It was very wet for the start of the week, hence only eight brave souls fronted up on Tuesday. Only four of the eight finished their round. The winner on the day was Geoff Brown with 31 pts, 2nd was Paul Norris with 27 pts, and 3rd place was Mike Irwin with 26 pts. Thursday was a different story. With the sun out and very mild conditions, we had 52 players. B grade 3rd place went to Paul Norris with 34 pts, Alan Parrott was 2nd with 37 pts, and Adrian Smith took out the win on a countback with 37 pts also. A grade 3rd place was Rod Sargent with 36 pts, 2nd place was Geoff Brown with 36 pts, and Adrian Costantini had the round of the day with 38 pts. The pro pin went to Rod Sargent and the secret six was won by David Roff. The rabbits for the day were Peter Sargeant and Adrian Cheer. Saturday was the June monthly medal, sponsored by the pro shop. A very good-sized field of 60 players attended. A big congratulations to Ken Neale for winning the medal and taking out B grade with a fine nett 69. 2nd in B grade was Sam Bell with a nett 70 and 3rd place was Charles Cassels with nett 72. Sam has been a bit stiff, having been beaten by one shot in both of the last monthly medals. I'm sure his time will come soon. A grade saw Mark Bettany in 3rd place with nett 73, Kyle Bridgeman was 2nd with nett 73 also, and Brendan Egan was 1st with nett 70. Kyle also won the J D Perks scratch for the day on a countback from Mark Jones. The pro pin on the 3rd was won by Barry Davey and the 16th was won by Oliver Shaw. Coming up on 12 July is a 5 Club Challenge Stableford for men and women. Happy hitting.
