A better week weatherwise saw the return of the buggies!

It also saw a little improvement in the scoring, but not much!

Bevan continued his good form but it was Stuart that came out on top, well done! 

Stuart, Bevan and Raymond.

An encouraging 15 Deanos turned up today expecting a Spring like 15 degrees but got 10!. We were chilly!

Nevertheless we all finished and then the sun came out…

We welcomed Mark Jurgen as a new Dean today. He went on to be in the winning team!

To amplify the differences between the teams we played a complicated Alan Jay multiplier. Count the best 2 scores and multiply them together..simples

Par would have been 72…

Team results were

1st Bevan Metcalf, Mark Jurgen, Keith Endersby with a healthy 80 points

2nd Rich Jones, John Byrne and Sid Edwards with an OK 77 points

3rd (on countback) Gordon Dobson, James Fisher and Nige Connor with a handsome 77 points

4th Richard Tripp, Brendan Coyle and Rod Spring with 72 points

5th Adrian Little, Rob Martin and James Gould with 62 points

Best individual round was  Bevan and Adrian with 38 and 37 respectively.

Did I?

Play Golf or just spoil another walk?

As you walk off the course next time ask yourself the following questions:

Did I enjoy myself?

Have I signed my card?

Did I replace my divots and repair my pitch marks?

You should answer YES to them all!
