Wednesday 29
Reliable sources tell me that as of Monday BUNKERS will be back on play, hence we will adapt this for all Seniors competitions. Rules applied will be: Mark the ball position, flatten the area and then place within 6” of the ball position. NO MORE BUNKER RELIEF
Also in play will be 2’s & Birdies. The published entry fees on the rollup programme includes £0.50 for this purpose. Birdies will be paid for individual comps and 2’s for any team completion.
A lovely day to play golf and 19 teams of 3 turned up for
the Silver Salver trophy. Bob is back scrutinising cards again as we should, DQ'ing
3 cards. I know it has been a while we filled in cards, but since we have all
been playing for a long time, we should really be able to fill our cards
properly. Here are the reasons:
Two cards had gross scores on the Net Score column meaning
that the Gross scores were higher than marked scores. You must put the gross
scores against each player instead of ticking or putting D on the player column indicating whose drive it
was and putting gross scores on net column.
One card had signature missing. In all competitions need two
signatures. In team events two team members have to sign the card and in
singles comps, the player’s as well as the marker’s signature. Luckily none of
the 3 cards were in contention for prizes.
Norman Markby, Mark Coleman & Bob Rees with a net score
of 57.50 were the winners of this trophy which as far as I am aware was lost
last year and I hope a replacement trophy has been purchased to be presented to
them at the AGM in November. Well done guys. Runners up with a narrow margin
were Jeremy Blackburn, Gordon Brent and Steve Holt followed by Mark Cording,
Roger Davis & James Siabi with 2 shots adrift.

Seniors Jubilee Salver Scramble | |||
1st | Mark Coleman, Norman Markby, Robert Rees | 57.5 | Rock solid front 9, then 4 Birdies on back 9 set a good score but beatable on most Texas Days. |
2nd | Jeremy Blackburn, Gordon Brent, Steve Holt | 57.8 | Not a blemish on the card and a blistering start, birdying 2,3 &4 - then a 31 back 9 - but giving 4 shots to leaders proved too much. |
3rd | Mark Cording, Roger Davis, James Siabi | 59.8 | 33 out, 33 back - but needed better than 6 Pars, 13 thro 18 to ascend the leader board with the fire-power they had. |
4th | Richard Holmes, David Mugridge, John Pearce | 60.2 | Defending Champions, but bogies on 6 & 17 will never be a gold-watch on this Fairground. |
5th | Danny Dowell, Rod Stevens, John Wandless | 60.3 | Hotly tipped, but a 5,3,5 start meant they were always behine with just 4.7 shots to play with |
6th | Alan Chance, John Evans, Steven Southgate | 60.7 | Serial Winners this tricky 3-ball, but the modest front 9 left them too much to do, with a valiant 2,3,3 finish |
7th | Ian Frost, Colin Ireland, Simon Scarborough | 61 | Plenty of shots but lacked distance with bogies on 8,9,& 10 |
8th | Paul England, Michael Hone, Keith Hunt | 61.2 | Once again, just too many bogies. |
9th | Maurice Arnold, Christopher Basterfield, Richard Forster | 61.5 | One of the better back-9 scores, but too much to do. |
10th | William Hilson, Ian Housham, Eric Williams | 63 | Like the Hot Chocolate song…It started with a Six !!! |
11th | Robert Barrow, Barrie Heath, Roger Stone | 63.2 | Not their day as 3 Bogies on back 9 wiped out their 3 Birdies. |
12th | Ian Fielder, Bryan Frost, Roger Hinds | 63.8 | 4 Bogies on back-9 = certain death... |
13th | Bob Hollingworth, Iain Rowland, Rod Young | 64 | Must have known their fate after bogies on 2,3 &4 ..but great to see this threesome back playing again. |
14th | David Asquith, Neil Cochran, Mark Sanders | 64.8 | half a dozen bogies…this usually hot trio left too much out there…but they were leaders in the Clubhouse for several minutes. |
15th | Dickie Hall, Nobby Hodder, Ken Trott | 66 | Gross 79, so even with their 13shots, the Mathematics were against them. |
16th | Michael Aldridge, Ted Bryden, Herbert Robinson | 70.2 | These guys were just warming up for the Super Seniors next week. |
17th | Derek Gardener, Andrew Rowland, Chris Rudling | DQ | Oops - we know Bob hates not seeing the Gross score under the Driver … |
18th | Clive Fisk, Dave Taylor, David Walgrove | DQ | Nice Birdie on 17th..so they could walk-off with pride. |
19th | Chris Andrews, Paul Matthews, Richard Redwood | DQ | Still dripping wet from completeting the Medal on Monday and claiming 'We wuz Robbed' |
