Wednesday 16 March PAR:
Many golfers will agree with me that playing PAR is probably their least favourable competition! Some of our members thrive on the extra challenge that PAR provides. One of those members is Mario DeVincentis. His +4 on this day, won him the outright voucher. He will be pleased when he realises that we are playing a PAR round again next Wednesday! Our Runner-up was the in-form Kevin Bargar, who posted a +3 off an ever-shrinking handicap! Balls were paid out for those who could record a “square” or better! NTP’s went to ex-Captain Cross (3rd), Junior Garside (5th), John Haynes (9th), “Old-Man-River” Hubbard (12th), and to Kevin Bargar (15th).
Twilight:
Only 2 weeks to go in this 2021-22 Twilight season, and points are at a premium as nearly 20 regular Twilight players try to squeeze into the prestigious top ten! And doing his cause no harm was Jason “Kenno” Kennedy, who recorded a very helpful 20 points, to win the day/night voucher. This may entrench him in the top ten, for the Shootout on March 31st! The Runner-up was none other than his daughter, the hugely talented Kim Kennedy, who finished just one point behind on 19, ( off a VERY low handicap, I might add!) Balls extended down to 18. NTP winners on the night were Steuart Hawke, (12th), “Bruno” Kennedy, ( another member of the clan-15th)and just to top off the day’s results, Kim had a superb eagle on the 17th to claim the best 2nd shot there ( Can’t let Dad have all of the glory!)
Saturday 19 March PAR:
Another PAR round, another solid set of winning scores! None was more impressive than the consistent Shane Campbell, who came in with a +1 to take home the A-Grade prize. Good work, “Bomber”! The B-Grade voucher went to Graeme Snell, with the best score on the day, a +2. Paul “Snorks” Long won the Runner-up voucher also recording a +1. But balls only got down to “square!” NTP’s were won by Lance ‘Hole-in-one” Atwell (3rd), Stuart Patrick (5th), Bomber Campbell (9th), Jimmy Stewart (12th), and to Max Jacobs (15th).
