Geoff Barden recorded the only 2 during the competition on the 10th hole, the prize fund had been rolled-over from the last mid week competition and Geoff won £80. Congratulations Geoff.
Seniors' December Medal
Well played to Ian Smith who won the Seniors' December Medal on Monday morning. Ian scored a fantastic round of nett 66 to win the competition by 2 shots from Norman Whiting. Ian and Norman were the only 2 golfers to return a score under their handicaps and are pictured below. Completing the top three was Dave Green with a score of nett 70, Dave claimed third place from Chris Crook on count back.
Again, the competition standard scratch reflected the difficulty of the playing conditions currently and increased by one shot to 69. Both Ian (20) and Norman (9) had their handicap reduced by one shot following the competition. The 2's pot was claimed by Martin Tigg with the only 2 on the day, recorded at the 10th hole. Martin won £50 for his two, scooping the roll-over pot.

Thank you to everyone who attended the PING Club Fitting Day last Thursday. The day was a great success with many members and non-members experiencing the benefits of the latest PING Golf clubs.
The performance of the latest PING G30 driver was very impressive. It provides a great combination of forgiveness and distance. Stuart Allbury is already enjoying the benefits the G30 equipment offer, Stuart had been using a PING G25 driver, fairway and rescue but was keen to see if PING had improved their equipment in the last two years. The answer was a resounding yes!!
He gained:
10 yards with his rescue
15 yards with his 3-wood
20 yards with his driver
If you were unable to attend the day but would like to try their latest equipment please click here to book a custom fit or speak to me next time you are at the club.
