This months winner was ‘Irish’ Joe, playing on his home course, with a fab score of 44.

Not wanting to be left out, in 2nd place was Jane Sax, the only lady player this meeting (come on girls!!!).

The prizes included a Hand Crafted winners  trophy, and bottles of wine.

The youngest player Courteny ‘Kid’ Ravenscroft, won Longest Drive with Geoff (too close to call!).

Nearest Pin was won by ‘Father’ Don and keeping the ladies end up, Jane Sax.

On a hotter than normal July day, the players enjoyed the cold water & beer provided to go round the course with, returning to the bar for a few more ice cold beers and a bite to eat.

Each player had there own stoy of  ‘If only’ (as usual).  Some of the best included;
‘My 18 feet put missed by 2 inches, would of been a Birdie.’
‘The wind held me back from longest drive.’
‘The bunker got in the way.’

Trick shots where also there as usual, Ricky hit the same Pylon 3 times on successive shots (that deserves a prize in itself).

‘The Les’ parked his ball behind a tree on a 1 in 10 graded slop (hill), so no points there then!
