Welcome to this week's newsletter, as I write this it is the night before the presentation of prizes at the golf club where all who had a good season will be rewarded, for the rest it is a chance to congratulate and get a drink from their trophy, there should be a few good pictures for the newsletter next week. None of me of course. There are still some tickets left so get in touch with Connor MacLeod if you would like to go, it's a great night and usually a good hangover the next day.


 

Winter Series 3 - Thursday 29 October

Another brilliant turnout with 104 golfers turning out to play, this is really proving to be a hit with the membership, let's hope we can keep the big numbers going through the depths of winter. The final day will be a plentiful one if that's the case. This week saw some great scoring and in first class finely tuned Martin Allan pipped the youngster Kenny McQuade by 1 point with a 43 point total to win the class. In second class Alan Macgregor pipped David Smith by 1 point with a 42 point total to win his class. Arguably the real winner was Tam Ballantyne who scooped 104 pounds for a classy (spawny) magic 2 on the 17th hole and as this was the only 2 on that hole then he scooped the lot. Well done and looking forward to week 4 already. For full results click here.

One little bit of housekeeping, pace of play was a little slow at around 4 hours, remember this is stableford so if you can't score just pick the ball up and move on, will help to keep the pace of play moving.

Wednesday Pro Sweep - Wednesday 2nd November

Trying to keep the midweek sweep going as best we can, 22 golfers turned out on Wednesday. Click here to see the winners.


 

I had the pleasure of coaching non-member (but managed to talk him into joining) Craig Hamilton today. His technique was pretty sound, although as we can see he had a problem with his set up, I felt his left arm was a little bent at address and he was definitely leaning too much on his left side (first pic), this was causing him to slice/shank, but after sorting out his set up those quickly left him (second pic), watch out for him next year on the leaderboards when he joins up.
