The V.V.V’s:
No comp this week.
Wed 18 September, Stableford:
With improved weather conditions, so follows improved golf and improved scoring. Someone who improved markedly was early-bird player Ross Machar. His 36 points was just good enough to oust Neil ‘Mr. Scotland’ Leckenby from the top voucher. Both men had 36 points, but in a very tight countback, Ross’s back nine proved just a little better. Interestingly, in a healthy-sized field, the lengthy ball rundown reached the lowly score of 31. There was a full list of NTP winners, they being PeterBell (3rd), Glenn Forbes (5th), Chris Leighton (9th), Barry Maltman (12th) and Dave Hatt (15th). Due to an administrative error, the nearest second shot, supposedly on the 10th this week, was not included. That will be included next week.
Saturday 21 September, Stableford:
With continued damp conditions (in other words; showers persisting), it was a real struggle to battle through the heavy conditions, particularly underfoot. The player who came out on top on this day was Danny Fox who posted a fine 38 points. Ben Lever took home the runner-up voucher with a creditable 37. Well done ‘Panda’. Under the new payout structure, balls reached all the way down to 31. NTPs went home with Te Van Der Kooi (3rd), Shane ‘Bomber’ Campbell (9th), young tyro Jaiden Lever (10th), Danny Fox (12th) and Future-Golf guest Douglas Dowe (15th).
