A bunch of happy winners |
Venue: Bonalba
Golf & Spa, 22 November 2017
Today we played Texas Scramble, a team game which is relatively
relaxing compared to the individual competitions. The only stress factor is that each player
has to complete 4 drives, so tactics play an important part of which drive is
selected on each hole. Due to good housekeeping by
our Captain, he was able to award prizes for 4 teams instead of the usual three
prizes, so out of the 8 teams competing, there was a good chance of securing a
prize.
The last of our tee-times was taken up by Chris and Neville who played
their singles knock-out match and our two guests Caroline and Jonathan who played Individual Stableford. Chris “knocked-out”
Neville and Jonathan won the guest prize.
As it was a very pleasant sunny day, the prize giving took place on the
terrace of the Club House. Congratulations to all the winners!
Summarising the results as follows:
Nearest the pin: Hole 4 Bob Crow

first and therefore was awared the customary golf ball.
