October Medal

Next Thursday will be the last medal of the year so everyone is encouraged to come along and fill the tee times asllocated to us.

For those of you who feel that the White course is made too tiring as a result of the climb upto the 5th tee I am prepared to lay on a 'golf shuttle buggy' to get you up and back down. This is an experiment for next year so if you think you would use the buggy at the 5th and that this would encourage you to play in next year's medals let me know by tuesday by marking 'BUGGY' against your name on the entry sheet.

Remember, the buggy stays at the 5th tee and will be returned to the centre when our last group has passed through.

Thursday 25th September - Stableford

Due to depleted numbers, resulting from the clash of the match with Glenisla and our normal Thursday competition, a casual Stableford was arranged for the morning.

John MacFarlane won with 37 points from Pat Duffy on 36 points on a count back from Gordon Ewen.
