As from next week the new World Golf Handicap system comes into play. All players will find that their G.A. has increased slightly.
David “Robbie” Robinson took out Saturday’s stableford with a stunning score of 46 points. Some sympathy must be felt for runner up, Andy Spackman, who scored an impressive 44 points. Robbie has been threatening to post a score for some time and must have finally got his tee shots to go where he wanted them to. There was a big gap to third placed Mark “Mouldy” Millward and there were a number of scores under 30. A count back was required to decide the Mars Bar which went to Brett Wallis from Eddie “The Flying Dutchman” Van Keulen. Thier scores were so low we have decided not to share them with you.
Results:

Taking advantage of school holidays to get in some extra golf, Kobi Wenzel posted 41 stableford points to win Tuesday’s competition. A three way tie for second on 38 points required a count back to separate Michael “Tickers” Tickner from David Robbie” Robinson & Russell “Gus The Good Guy” Wenzel. Scores were above average with 7 of the 11 players scoring 36 or better. The other 4 scores were not so good.
Results:
Twelve players competed in ideal conditions today with some good scores returned. Dick Cleland returned the best score with an evenly played 41 stableford points. Runner up was Michael “Tickers” Tickner with 39. Tickers has recently turned to form after a period in the wilderness and we can expect some good results from him in the coming weeks. Pat Hallion continued his consistent form finishing 3rd with 37 points.
The most disappointing result today was poor showing by colourful local sporting identity, Philip “Tommo” Thomson, who scored just 25 points, narrowly avoiding the Mars Bar.
