September’s medal was up for grabs and with 17 punters taking the field it was a count back ultimately deciding the result. Some very solid scoring was had by a lot of the field which means that course conditions are improving, or the first event of the month brings out the best in some of us.
Bob handed in a very impressive score of 63 which was also matched by Johnny Q. Both score 1st place wins for the championship however after careful analysis Bob ended up with the medal after countback. Fair to say their handicaps have taken out a fair chunk.
Not far off their heels was Rob who followed up his Nurmurkah form with an impressive 64, who was also not outdone by Dennis Ward coming in equal second. Pepsi was on his lonesome in 3rd with a score of 66 after murdering the course with 1 over off the stick.
Craig Cameron put in a solid round with a nett 67 who was following by 4 others who tied for 5th on even par 68; Mehmet, Noodes, Brenden and SOS. The high scoring correlated to 21 birdies total for the day. There were a number of improvements in the eclectic however Peps is still holding a solid lead.
The ball hole went to none other than Blighty who didn’t have his best round however an extra ball is a small constellation. The pro pin was left on the 19th hole, so next week goes to a jackpot.
The IGl finals have started and for those who are interested the finals follows a final 5 fixture. Hawks had the week off as they finished on top, which left 2 matches of 2v3 and 4v5. Blues(2) lost to Tigers(3) with scores of 133 for the blues (Rob 64 and Rod 69) and 131 to Tigers (Dennis 64, Craig 67).** lowest score wins as the round was a stroke round.
Magpies(4) with a score of 133 (Bob 63, Targe 70) defeated Bulldogs(5) 138 (Mehm 68, Craig 70) to finish the round. Unfortunately Bulldogs have been booted and only 4 teams remain. This week the matches are Blues v Magpies in the elimination final and hawks play Tigers for a place in the GF.
Happy birthday to Blighty and Ed this week, have a good one!
