Friday 1st February and the start of the month saw the Bunker Boy’s play the Royal Thai Navy course at Plutaluang and we had some new names come to the fore in both the A and B Flights. In the A Flight Jim Treen won with the best score of the day a nett 69 playing off handicap 13, Jerry Kurtz came second with nett 73 beating Tony Scambler into third place on a count back. John Hughes won the B Flight with a slightly embarrassing nett 77 ahead of Colin Cronin nett 82 and third placed Bryan Rought nett 84. The strong wind was the excuse for the poor scores in the B Flight where, playing North and West courses the signature lighthouse hole took it’s toll with several tee shots going into the drink and ruining a lot of cards!

Gerry Cooney continued with his steady form taking a near pin prize but Tony Scambler wouldn’t be outdone as he won two near pins and the fourth went to Jack Robertson.
