Professional's Day
My Professional day on January 5th was completely full by 9:30am, I'm sorry to all the disappointed members who couldn't enter, I am now just praying for a dry day. It will be the usual format of £20 per pair with a steak pie, chips and peas to follow the golf and the Christmas Draw and presentation taking place at 16:30 in the clubhouse. Free Range balls for all competitors. The format for the day will be better ball Stableford for the first 9 holes and Greensomes Stableford for the back nine holes. Prizes for the first three pairs as well as on course prizes.
Captain & Pro Matches Three matches have been played over the last week or so with mixed results once again, we started with another defeat to John Owen and Simon O'Connor, with shots here there and everywhere and even a couple of shots on some holes we struggled and eventually lost 2 down. Losing to a fellow Welshman isn't quite as bad to take. Better news on the other two games as we beat Tom Cunnigham and Kevin Dickens who threw in the towel after 8 holes, to be fair to Tom and Kevin the weather was pretty awful and cold. We then beat Stuart and Ben Richards in a hard fought match on Saturday. We were 3 down after nine but somehow stuck in there and eventually won on the 18th. Three great matches plays in good spirit. We will be making it three wins in a row on Friday when we beat the father & son pairing of Clayton and Nathan. |
