The V.V.Vs:
The V.V.Vs once again did not play this week, as both illness and holiday plans have diminished their numbers to a level precluding them from holding a daily competition.
Competition is expected to resume after the school holidays.
Wednesday 9 July, Stroke and M. McGrann Bag Day qualifier:
With better weather, and therefore more inviting conditions prevailing than for the last two weeks, a healthy field contested the July qualifier for the Bag Day.
The best nett stroke score recorded on the day came from the slashing clubs of the talented Georgie Houniet – she posted a fine nett 68.
This excellent result just edged out the same score from Kevin Conway, whose last three holes couldn’t match those of Houniet.
Well done to both for great rounds, but especially to Houniet who has now, for the first time, qualified to play off for the bag in December.
Kevin earned the runner up voucher on the day.
Balls reached down to nett 72.
The NTP winners this day were as follows: Tim Jones (3rd), Michael Eldridge (9th), Captain Whitehead (12th) and to young Jaiden Lever (5th and the 15th).
Saturday 12 July, Stableford:
Another improved day, weather-wise, saw improved scores across the board.
Our daily winner also had an improved result, in fact a stunning score.
That stunning result came from young tyro, Zach Bower, who posted no less than 45 points to comfortably account for the rest of the field.
Zach just adds to an impressive line of family golfers, following in the footsteps of his father Luke and grandfather Bruce, both of whom have been and still are excellent golfers in their own right.
President Meredith came in strongly with a great 41 points to claim the runner up voucher – any other day, that score would earn the top prize.
With these results, the ball rundown, surprisingly, got down to 35.
There were five separate NTPs claimed by the following members: Dave Hatt (3rd), Junior Spenceley (5th), P.K. (9th), Charley Cochrane (12th) and President Nursey (15th).
