Keighley Cup Result

First of all, thank you to Arthur Thompson for inviting all the twenty players plus me to celebrate his recent birthday. Conditions altered dramatically towards the end of the rounds as shown  in the photo.

Tim Herbert was the only player to record a + score (21 - 19 )with second placed John Wraight  level (6 - 5).

Club diaries are available for collection in the foyer and the Thursday aggregate scores have a link in the sidebar.

Bernard Keighley Cup

The Club diaries aren't out yet so a reminder that the Bernard Keighley Cup will be held next Tuesday 14th March. The format is a bogey competition and entries are via the touchscreen.

Thursday 9th March

Normally I would not make a report when less than twelve play but it was worth turning up just to listen to the diverse, well balanced and forcefully proposed rules for taking part in Gilmour's accumulator on the winter short course. Hopefully someone will provide definitive written rules for future use. 

Use of Personal Buggies

Today we received notification from the Club that buggies could not be used on the course. The Greens Chairman has clarified that this only applies to rental buggies from the Club and that properly insured personal buggies can be used at all times except when the course is closed.

 

Texas Scramble Result

Played in exceptionally calm and warm conditions for the time of year seven teams of four played using 10% of combined yellow tee handicaps. This resulted in a much closer contest with only three points separating  top from bottom place. Bob Finlinson, Terry Bunn, Joe Campbell and Owen Swift won with 58.7 and each received a well deserved two shot handicap reduction. Quite a few players also got shots back.

This Thursday is the start of Gilmour's 10 session accumulator for those who enter for a qualifying score and runs as a background extra to our normal meetings.

Summer Start Time

Please note that we now commence at 11.00am. Also check the link to the weekly result sheet as several handicaps have been adjusted since last Tuesday. 

Thursday 2nd March

Much warmer for today's twenty four players. Terry Bunn's magic putting stick (on the front 9) gave him a winning 39 points (16 - 12) and Philip Curran second with 37 (20 - 18).

Next Tuesday is our Spring Texas Scramble which we will play with either 3 or 4 balls (not both). I've opted to drop out should it make this possible.
