Down the Fairways

Kerang

A small number of Ladies ventured out to play Stableford last Wednesday on a bitterly cold morning.

Carol Dear was the winner of the day with 33 points. Runner-up was Shirley Jenner with 28 points and Deaniee Henderson received the only ball in the ball pool, with 27 points. Chino’s NTP voucher went to Rosie Laughlin on the 9th.

There were 14 members playing in Thursday’s R & R Stableford competition, with rain fast approaching as 14mm fell by next morning.

The winner was Bradley Short (10) 36 points. K Chase (23), P Lloyd (10) and T Turvey (14) all had 34 points. NTPs went to 5th G Wyte, 9th B Short and 13th T Turvey. The 3rd and 16th were left untouched.

After the rain on Thursday, totalling almost 100mm for the month, the course was very wet in places for Saturday Stableford, which made scoring difficult and long.

One player that didn’t have any trouble with the course was Neil Carmichael (35) who came in with 41 points.

Ladies’ winner was Jan Harry (12) on 33 points from Jean Youl (22) 32.

In the ball pool were Kevin Lane (15) 35, Tony Laughlin (11) and Phil Lloyd (10) both on 33, Roger Pay (13) and Jean Youl on 32 each. Nearest the pins were Jack Hewitt 3rd, Neil Carmichael 5th and Kevin Chase won the money on the 13th.

A stroke round for the monthly medal next week, so hopefully no rain this week so the course can dry out and play well. See you all then.
