That Was the Week that Was
Away Day, Medals and More…
Club Away Trip
Another corking annual away weekend with 32 members, hosted by Member for Social Gary Norman, saw a trip up the M40 to The Warwickshire. Two great but long courses, some brilliant weather and some decent food and drink, led to some spectacular golf over the two days.
The individual honours on day one, went to Fiona Stewart and Doug Baillie, with some impressive scoring
The Texas Scramble on day two was won by the team of Page Singletary, Gary Norman, Julia Bailey and Stephen Tague, with a nett 60!
All in all, a great weekend away, and Gary is already scouring the country for next years venue. A big thank you to all who came and thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
Friday Roll-up
This weeks winner, with a score of 39, was Geoff McCaw followed by Max Dawson, Greg Carlow, and Richard Borkowski in 2nd 3rd & 4th. A beautiful day and the course in great condition but no 40+ cards?!!
Saturday Medal
The Ladies Medal was won by Lady Captain, Fiona Stewart, with a four under par 67, four shots clear of runner-up and winner of best gross, Cathy Pritchard.

The Gents Medal was also the qualifier for the Prince Arthur knockout with the top sixteen progressing to the knock out stages of this board event.
Justin Webb won the Medal with a fine 66 from David Bellingham, Hamish Bennett and Max Dawson on 67.
Matt Dickinson carded the best gross on 73 - level par at the turn. These two are both through to the knockout phase of the Prince Arthur of Connaught Challenge Cup and not scheduled to meet unless in the final!

Sunday Roll-up
24 players out today with 2s from Maurizio d’Arrigo, Robert Shi, Jamie Terry, Charlie Dyos Hunter & David Bradley.
Podium places, all on 38 points, went to Kara Catt (gold), David Bradley (silver) and Charlie DH (bronze). Well played all!
…and finally
Don’t forget the sign up sheet for the fun day is in the front bar. No fun if you’re not there!!!
Also - a word regarding marking your balls. When doing so kindly think of a potential future owner. Subtle, yet unique, markings may be adapted by the finder of a previously lost ball. Marking like this however is somewhat permanent!
It’s a bit like tattoos - or so Chas Bain told us (btw, thanks for the laminated gate passes Pascal and Chas has your ball!)
