The format for this fun event was made up on the day, as we were an odd number of players a team game was out of the window. So past captain Coops suggested a medal competition. A medal comp is when you have to count every single shot per hole until it goes into the hole, even if takes 15 shots. At the end the players' handicap is deducted from the total amount of shots to find the winner. Everyone was in agreement, so after doing a blind draw there and then, we set off to battle the course another time. Once again I was drawn with Graham as well as Steve Lowe who works for Kings Food and just back off holiday Peter Flynn. Being a medal format it can potentially take a little longer to play but the course wasn't that busy so it didn't matter.

  Again some fabulous golf was played judging by the cards, I battled to try and play to my handicap and shoot 83, but went out of bounds on the dreaded 2nd and ended up shooting 84. Coops & John Burgess were not far behind and shot just 2 over their handicaps with a rounds of 90 & 91. The winner of the day with a net 67 with an 11 on his card (bandit!) was Billy Seaforth who shot 87 with a 20 handicap. 8 pars, 8 bogeys, 1 double bogey and an 11 on the 13th hole made up Billy’s extraordinary round. He didn’t however get a 2, and a total of 116 euros was up for grabs on a double rollover. So you can imagine I was ecstatic when I sank a 12 foot putt on the 12th for a birdie 2! Apparently, John Burgess was also ecstatic on the 15th as was new member Terry Johnstone on the 4th! Would you believe that 3 of us managed to get a 2 on the same day! Though not getting a birdie as such, Coops tell me that a birdie got him on the 14th when a seagull picked his ball up dropped it nearer the hole on the green. So as you can see there’s always something different on every one of our days out, and we always have a good time so if you want to join in the fun, give me a buzz or drop me an email on the numbers below.

  Don't forget our next event is on Tuesday, 26th September followed by games on Tuesday 10th & Sunday 15th October. Tee times are from 10.00 am.
