Saturday March 30th – Monthly Medal – Stroke & Putts

The March Medal field teed off with dark cloud looming and a gusting wind south-westerly wind.  The round progressed and the wind moved from NW to NE causing problems with high approach shots often veering well off target.  As the field turned for home a violent squall, with hailstones, moved across the park seeing players hiding behind trees or trying to control umbrellas in the wind.  Despite the tough conditions two players were able to record scores well below their handicaps.  Other were left to rue poor approach shots or putts that were hit a little too well and just rolled passed the cup.  On a cold and wind afternoon the results were;

Winner and March Medalist; Pat Chisholm – 81/15/66 from Michael Squire – 76/7/69

NTPs; 1st – Ron Walker, 15th – Scott Williams & 16th – Les Gaunt.     Least Putts; Pat Chisholm – 25
