I am pleased to report a most enjoyable day’s golf on the impressive Rufford Park course.
Reception and breakfast excellent; weather equally good; the greens the best we have played on for some time, and the bunkers truly a pleasure to play from.
So a no excuse day!
Winning scores didn’t reach the dizzy heights of last year’s 51 pts but Pete Barson, ably supported by Alan Swain, shot an impressive 44. Well done fellows, a good score on this challenging course.
Sponsor Pete also featured twice more on the nearest the pin challenges so all in all he had a pretty good day.
Maybe playing 5 times a week and buying new clubs twice a year helps?
Unfortunately, Handicap Secretary Josh White couldn’t be with us but at his request the cards are being stored for future scrutiny. Watch this space.
Thanks for your company,
Nick.Maltby
