Saturday April 30th – April Medal, stroke & putts

The rain predicted for the morning seemed to have fallen overnight and the April Medal field teed off under clear skies with sun poking through here and there.   Conditions steadily improved over the round and jumpers soon came off.  Given the 30mm+ of rain a and the resulting wetter, softer course players were allowed “Mark, Lift, Clean & Replace”.  Later in the round a Westerly wind blew up forcing players to think very carefully about club selection or risk being either short  or long  on a number of holes.  Over the final holes the temperature dropped and all were very happy to be back in the rooms.  On a generally good day to be out on the course the results were;

Winner & April Medalist; Pat Chisholm – 83/14/69

2nd’; Anthony Lakey – 90/19/71 C/B

3rd; Kev Dunn – 97/26/71

NTPs; 15th – Shannon Wright, 16th – Mal Mottram

Least Putts; Bob McLennan – 23
