Medalford-  19th  July 2016



Boy was it hot on the course today. Not so much the scoring as the temperature. Only 27 members played today. Was is that Tuesday golf interfered with our member’s social life or that it promised to be just too hot for golf?

...but Tony still needed his Jiminez warm-up routine in his jazzy new outfit.









In the event, there were 6 teams of 4 playing a Medalford and 3 playing the July Rolling Stableford. Sleight of hand was needed with the first of the late groups to enable Frank Martin (playing in the Rolling Stableford) to have playing partners, but although somewhat confusing, Bill Hilson and Nobby Hodder with the best Stableford score of the day, partnered Trevor Dobson and James Dick into second place with a net 35.



However, George Wallace and Brian Denning had the best Medal round with a 65 and together with their partners, Andy Beale and John Livens  returned a net score  of 33 to take first place.

                  

There were 4 birdies, paying £3.00 per birdie.

The winners will be cut 2 shots and the runners up 1 shot.


Jerry Stephens and Frank Martin played in the Rolling Stableford scoring 36 points and 28 points respectively. John MacOmish did not return a card.

Frank had swept in earlier with the hood down but failed to impress the captain as he sent Frankie out to play an Individual...





The next rollup is on Wednesday 20th July...or tomorrow if you prefer !!!!!
