Hale Golfers on their Travels
Thanks to Irene Kirk for sending in these details of international wins for Ron Kirk and Keith Thompson! Ron won the Seniors prize at the Legends Course in Mauritius whilst Keith prevailed in the Super Seniors
Tracey Thompson came third on a card play off in the Ladies Competition
As Irene pointed out, it’s such a pleasure to play golf in warm sunshine and get those shorts and t-shirts on.
Balancing Act
Thanks to Paul Simpson for sending in this photo of where the gentleman captain’s ball finished after his first tee shot during a recent Captain’s Challenge match. Rumour has it that he went on to birdie the hole and go one up!
Missing Link
I managed to omit the link from my last newsletter to the article that Colin Bamford sent me about the benefits of playing golf. Unfortunately the link has now expired so I can’t make amends in this week’s missive. Apologies Colin.
Flag In or Out?
I thought this was an interesting article from Golf Digest that was worth sharing. However we definitely don’t want this to slow the pace of play down in any way!
