Latest News

24th April 2008
Thunderstorms, lashings of rain, and everyone getting soaking wet ...... well the players who played before the society were. Bright sunshine and clear skies 5 minutes before first tee off! Hah!

A great turn out saw 21 players, 19 members and 2 guests, at SandMartins for another hotly contested trophy.

Not a lot of notable events from the course - the highlights being:

Frazer Webb trying to play his second shot on the 17th without one foot in the pond! Failing miserable and duffing the 2nd shot into the pond!

An amazing performance from Ian Turvill saw him score a monstrous 13 points - but the notable point was that he only used 1 ball for the whole round!! As Ian put it, he was never going to loose the ball, because he just couldn't hit it far enough to get into any trouble :-)

Darren Anderson's tee shot to the Nearest the Pin sent Darren of celebrating as he'd got inside the current marker. Unfortunately for Darren, the next person to tee-off, Kevin Gray, got 2 inches inside Darren.

And to the winners. Mark Harris grabebd the longest Drive, again! - he won it last month as well. Simon Park secured the Nearest the Pin in 2 shots, and Kevin Gray secured the Nearest the Pin (see how above). Well done to those 3 players for that.

But what about the main event? Well, unlike last month the winning score was respectable, with Michael Prevost securing the win with 33 poitns. Well done Mike. Second and third places were tight, with Tony Peters securing 2nd on count-back from Chirs Penfold.

You can see the the full set of results on the results page.

Order of merit is updated, but don't forget the rules this year means the merit does not include guests - only paid up society members are included. Handicap adjustments are also posted.
