The V.V.Vs:
Well, loyal readers, I promised last week that I would have plenty to report about the antics of those energetic, enthusiastic V.V.V ladies.
For the second week in a row, the supremely talented Ms Eldridge has blown away the rest of the field.
Playing the front nine, the other girls were no match for Tricia’s impressive 20 points, which included no wipes.
Great shooting, Sister Patricia.
Michelle Jordan, with 18 very impressive points also, claimed runner up honours.
There were no NTPs recorded, but I am reliably informed there were a couple of tee shots that went close.
Hopefully, loyal readers, you will wait patiently, like myself, to see if someone can break the stranglehold that the legendary Ms Eldridge has over the V.V.V results at the moment.
Wednesday 8 October – Stableford:
Under cloudy skies, with a flukey wind complicating matters, and with mild temperatures, you always knew that one of our regular midweek members would master those conditions and shoot a superb score.
And, of course, Belly was just the man to do that.
Yes, my old mate, Peter Bell posted a super impressive 39 points in those aforementioned tough conditions.
I believe that Peter completed his winning round without a scratch – also impressive in that tough landscape.
The daily runner up voucher was claimed by another old mate, Darryl Ward, with his 37 points.
A welcome return to form, Dazza.
The rundown reached a lowly 32.
There were four out of five NTP winners, they being Tim Jones (third), Steuart Hawke (ninth), Dazza Ward (12th) and to Ross Machar (15th).
Saturday 11 October – Stableford:
On a cool day, with the weather encouraging good scoring, the most encouraged member was Ken White, who recorded a fine 41 points.
This landed Kenny the B Grade top prize.
Our daily runner up was Peter Bell, also with a superb 41 point round.
Clearly, these two boys are on way too generous handicaps at the moment.
The A Grade voucher was won by none other, than our hard working club president. Yes, Meredith Nursey posted a strong 35 point score.
The ball rundown only stretched to 34.
And, only three NTPs were claimed, they being Le Pinkster (third), Paul Kennedy (ninth) and to Dale Sund (15th).
TWILIGHT:
Yes, its back: our iconic and easily, most popular comp.
And, our first winner for the 2025-26 season, is also the iconic Steuart Hawke, who recorded a fine 22 points.
The first runner up is “Bomber” Campbell, just one point behind, on 21 points.
Unfortunately, no NTP winners were listed for this day.
More club news, re: changes to this season’s Twilight comp. will be included in my future columns.
