Dusty Bin

Dusty Bin is like a waltz but the other way round! On our course it is really challenging to play this format on the front 9! To count 3 scores on the first hole is a real challenge, but two teams managed it! Well done!

It was a cloudy day with a light breeze - just about perfect conditions really.

We moved the tees forward on 12 and 14 and on the 12th we held the Nearest the Pin in two competition which was left over from Captain's Day.

This was won by Frieda who couldn't have got closer to the hole! She scored a 2 for 6 points! She had chipped in!

When I find the pink head-cover it is heading Frieda's way for shot of the day!

Well played!

There were 5 teams who played today and we had prizes for first and second.

In third place (on countback from Sarah, Frieda and Jayne) with 64 points were Pam Antoinette and Chris J.

Jean and Lindsay

In second place with 68 points were Sue S, Lyn and Sue D;

and in first place with an impressive 71 points were Fran, Jenny and Val!

Winners with their duster-bins!

Well played you three - especially on the 4th and the 13th where each of you had three pointers! Fabulous!

The full result is here. 

It has to be said that the pin positions on the back 9 were very interesting! Especially on 15 and 17!  The 17th was running fast and it was impossible to keep the ball up near the hole... !   Thanks Mark!

Actually - the course was looking great and we appreciate all that the greenkeeper's team do!

On a personal note this is the first round I've played for a while, when I felt stress free and it was lovely to be out there - many thanks to my playing partners, and to all of you for your support over the last little while. I have really appreciated it.

It's Golden Ball next Saturday followed by the Jack Arnold on the Sunday;

on Thursday 30th November it is the Ladies v Seniors! (This is an 18 hole competition - the sign up sheet is on the board.)
