Good scores on the green



Wednesday 23 August

After a “dump” of rain the previous day, the course was in very good condition, with the greens being especially friendly to any well-placed approach shot.

Clearly, the member who had his approach shots “on-song” was Warren-Sheargold, who returned a very healthy—37 points.

This meant that Warren took home the B-Grade voucher.

Good result, Waz!

The B-Grade R/up was Matthew-Maloney, just 1 point behind.

You’re improving, Matt.

Balls in this Grade extended only to 32.

In A-Grade, Phil “Senior” Garside won the prize with a neat 36 points.

Great job, Phillip.

The A-Grade runner up was Mr. Consistent, Kenneth-White, who posted a 34-point round.

Balls for this Grade got all the way down to 30.

The four NTP winners were as follows: Max-Carvill, (3rd), Ross-Machar, (9th), Steuart-Hawke, (12th) and to Allan “Old Man River” Hubbard, (15th).

Saturday 26 August

4-Person Ambrose -14 teams contested today’s event.

There were a number of very good Nett scores posted, but the outstanding result came from the team comprised of – Peter and Danny Fox, Roger-Mataele and Sam-Dennis.

Their score of Nett 55.12 beat the runner up by, wait for it, 13.

Peter-Whitehead, Ken-White, Paul-Osbourne & David-Hatt therefore recorded a Nett 55.25.

Talk about a photo finish.

The ball rundown was not recorded on this day, but there were extra individual winners.

NTP’s went to Wayne-Ball, (3rd), Sam-Dennis, (5th & 12th — probably got your team over the line, Samuel) and to Ken-White (15th).

The A-Grade straightest drive went to guest, Una Raymond Hoey, and in B-Grade to Roger-Mataele. The longest drive prizes were won by guest, Tom-Rogers, in A-Grade, and by Lee-Creedy, (B-Grade).
