Thursday Seniors' Competitions

From next Thursday, 20th of November, onwards all those seniors wanting to play should simply turn up at the club house at or near to 9.30.

Draws will be made on the spot.

Tees will be reserved from 9.30 to 10.30 each Thursday.

Thursday 13th November - Tee Times

A disappointingly low entry for this week's Competition makes me come to the conclusion that we are better just turning up on Thursday's if we want to play and taking it from there. As a result this will be the last competition, other thasn the knock out singles and doubles to be organised this year until the 'Turkey Shoot' on the 18th of December.

Tee Times for this week's Stableford competition are therefore:-

9.30 Jim Davidson; Sandy Robertson

9.37 Pat Duffy; John Brand

9.45 Ian Strachan; Ron Haynes

9.52 Tiny Sive; Jim Ross

10.00 George Allan; Brian Ruffhead; Ernie Wastell


No entry; Sweep GBP1.00

Tee Times and Results fromThursday 6th November

Tee Times were as below for the Texas Scramble:

9.30 Pat Duffy; Jim Davidson; Garry Stewart

9.37 David Dawson; Ken MacLeod; Alan Christie

9.45 Gordon Ewen; John Brand; Jim Ross

9.52 Ian Strachan; Alex Sutherland; Ernie Wastell

10.00 Brian Ruffhead; Peter Tinker; Doug Gillespie

10.07 Tony Sive; Graeme Hunter; George Dolby

10.15 Jim Donnelly; Dave Kerr; George Allan; Alan Jones

Moderate conditions allowed most summer greens to be used so we had a LONG COURSE.

In the end the 4 ball of Jim Donnelly, Dave Kerr, George Allan and Alan Jones prevailed with a NET 59, one ahead of the 9.30 team of Pat Duffy, Jim Davidson and Garry Stewart.

Well done
