Garside hits 42 while bearing the elements



V.V.Vs:

No V.V.Vs again this week due to a number of reasons.

The girls will hopefully be back out on-course next week.

Wednesday 23 July, Stableford:

Not ideal weather greeted the smaller than usual field on this day, must be the winter weather.

But, of those hardy souls who did front up, our best result came from Phil Garside.

The senior Garside brother had a day out, because not only did he secure the top prize with a superb 42 points, but he also collected two NTPs on the way, with great tee shots on both the fifth and 15th holes.

A good day’s work, senior.

The runner up was Alan Macdonald, who edged out your loyal scribe for that voucher, with 38 solid points.

Alan’s result was the best one he has posted for some time.

Balls made their way down to 33.

The other NTPs on offer, went to Mr Hendy (3rd), David Hatt (9th) and to Neil “Mr. Scotland” Leckenby, (who nearly owns the tricky 12th hole.)

Saturday 26 July, PAR:

With fairly damp conditions prevailing, the smallish field battled against a tough course, with the most efficient battler being Craig Staggard.

Craig had a very creditable plus two to earn the top voucher.

Paul Osbourne grabbed the runner up prize with a solid plus one.

Balls have gone down to minus four on a countback.

NTP winners were Paul Osbourne (3rd), Troy Murphy (5th) and to Rob Ferguson (9th).
