Congratulations to David Swale and Paul Taylor for winning Saturday’s Turkey Trot with 36 points. In second place, and just one point off the winners, were Dave Smith and Roger Mattocks. The dubious pleasure of winning the booby prize, which was kindly donated and presented by Peter Hardern, went to current gentleman captain Chris Wood and future gentleman captain Jonny Yates.
Thanks to Ian Hunt for supplying the photos. The final snap below is a wide angle photo of the scene in the dining room as the winners collected their prizes.
Unfortunately the ladies Turkey Trot which was due to take place on Thursday had to be cancelled because of the poor weather. It has been re-scheduled for the 12th December.
It seems Hale Golf Club is not the only golfing body that has recently changed it’s dress code. Click here to catch up on the story on the BBC website.
A new complimentary golf magazine has been launched in Cheshire called On Par. There are some hard copies in reception or you can read the online version by clicking here. HGC and yours truly appear on page 20!
I love this photo below sent in by Gwynneth Bramwell from St Andrews. They were joined by the Reas and played a round on the Eden, the Old and the New courses. I haven’t had the pleasure of playing the Old Course as yet (it remains on my Bucket list) but Craig told me it’s quite a nerve wracking opening tee shot.
