Golfers have been very pleased that the weather for the last few Saturdays has been very suitable for a game of golf and last Saturday was no exception. After a wet week the course was in good condition and both the members and the many green fee visitors enjoyed their round of golf.
Both the men and the ladies played a stroke round for the October monthly medal and the ladies round included the 4th round of the Barton Shield. The ladies medal winner was Gail Leigh (12) with net 71 on a countback from Kelly Lloyd -Vanni (34). The qualifiers for the Barton Shield final were Kelly Lloyd-Vanni and Lesley Rundle who will join Margaret Blair, Gail Leigh, Sabrina Stow, Bec Lee, Jody Doran and Heather Jenkins in the final on Nov 8th. The winner of the men’s medal was Brian Worcester (19) with net 71 and the runner up was Colin Davies (26) with net 77. The nearest the pins were won by Colin Davies and Keith Atwell who also won the Golden Shot. Next Saturday the ladies will play stroke for the Mavis Hadfield Trophy and the men will play the first round of the club championships. A reminder to members that registration on a Saturday is 9.00am for a 9.30 tee off.
