With this Monday being a holiday it was a somewhat depleted crew that journeyed up from the Café Kronborg to Treasure Hills for this week’s stableford competition.
Although this is an excellent layout it has to be said that in the past the general condition of this venue has not always been up to scratch, but I am happy to report that on this occasion the recent improvement was there for all to see providing excellent fairways and good true greens.
Unfortunately the bunkers still tend to ‘swallow’ the ball but I am sure they will get around to resolving this in the fullness of time and after all said and done they are supposed to be hazards.
On to the competition then and much like last week the course once again came out the winner with Kevin Dinan(33pts) taking the B flight just edging out Herb Pastor(32pts) into second and Henk de Bock winning a countback to come third with 27 points.
In the ‘A’ flight Clive Robinson (37 pts) took he honours over an in form Trevor Lourch who, in spite of being cut three shots at the weekend, carded 34 points to take second place from a surprised Derek Young sneaking third with 30points.
Back to normal next week with the Admiral returning and you can be sure his inspirational leadership will result in a general improvement in the scores.
