Recent maintenance on the greens proved a challenge for some, as the greens were a little longer than normal but tracked pretty true.
The condition of the overall course at the moment is excellent and will become even better in the weeks ahead following the aerating of the fairways. Congratulations and thanks go to all of the ground staff.
Winners on the day were Fred Ertl and David Crees with a hot 94 points.
Runners-up were Warren Brentnall and Ross Bird on a c/b with 83 points.
In third place were David Pettitt and Gary Duncan and fourth place went to David Cairns and Bruce Walker with 81 points on a c/b.
