Bogey 1
The first Bogey of the winter campaign took place on Friday and Saturday. The weather on Saturday was appalling but many of the golfers battled round which was truly a tremendous effort.
Joe Mills was the winner with five up and put it down to have played several times in Wales over the summer with equally terrible weather! Jonny Gray was the last out and had to contend with near flooded greens but despite that scored three up. Ian Ponter was third having lost to Jonny on count back. The CSS was 68.
Lady Captain vs Lady Secretary
The annual match between LC’s team and LS’s team took place on Thursday. The format was fourball betterball over nine holes and 52 ladies took part, which was a great turn out. It ended up being a draw which meant all the players could enjoy their harvest lunch equally 😃

Work on the First Hole
The mound on the right hand side of the first has been re-contoured and trees have been planted in the Out of Bounds area by Sharman’s field. Both changes will add definition to the hole when they’ve had time to bed in. Well done as always to Russ, Dave and Ben for continuing their hard work of maintaining and improving the course.
