Nineteen of us turned out and we were delighted to welcome Peter Mann and Paul Green as guests of Paul Fitzell and Steve Weeks respectively.
The sun was shining when we teed off but after a couple of hours it clouded over and we could hear thunder in the distance. We did have a short shower for about 10 minutes but overall we were lucky!
For the 2nd game running I was joined by Steve and his guest Paul who was returning to golf after a 5 year absence. He was a little rusty at first but he soon showed some good touches.
Competitions
In the singles Patrick beat Dave Williams in a close game by 2 & 1. He will now play Dave Crocker in the semi-final. In the other singles game, Martin won a great game against Bob at the 2nd extra hole. On one hole Martin's approach hit the pin and stopped near to the hole to allow him to win that one. Martin now goes through to play Patrick in the final.
The course was in really good condition and this led to some high scores on the day.
Nearest the pin on the 4th was won by Neal and on the 14th by Paul Fitzell.
Dave Williams took the 2's kitty at the 16th.
