Glorious Twelfth plus One
A lovely day at the club, with the grounds looking at their best this time of year, with some recent heavy rain, but some strong sunshine too, the grass has been going mental, and kept well in check by some committed mowing. This ground work has really paid off, and in welcoming a visitor to the ground on Sunday, the club’s facilities made a lasting impression, especially for such a small footprint of land. ” the use of space is fantastic, thanks for a warm welcome, and a good shoot”.
The Sporting layout was harsh but fair, some birds there to catch out the unwary. Ben Morris wasn’t caught napping though, with an excellent 93 to take High Gun, followed by Steve Donson‘s 87, and a two way tie for 3rd, Mick Gregson and Ollie Hughes both one shot behind on 86. In the Handicap Competition, Mike Bolan won with 85+29;114 , followed by Steve Donson 87+20;107 and Tom Carlstedt-Duke 66+39;105
This summer season’s championship has run it’s course ( 6 shoots with best 5 to count ) and the season results will be published shortly. After each season, the handicap and club class are recalculated, and these are used for the next season – these will be published in next few days.
