February Monthly Medal 07 February 2015

Well, well, well.  That blistering score posted by Mark late last year only to not be qualified for the December medal has been matched by an equally blistering round.  Mark posted a 59 nett to win the February medal with daylight behind.  The stunning round of golf has produced an equally big decrease in his handicap – nearly 4 shots.  The grin was obvious from ear to ear as he strode up to the victory dais for the winning pronouncement by none other than Oliver who grabbed the cards and duly proceeded to shower mark with praise – well he announced it anyway.  It was part of Oliver’s farewell speech as it turned out, the lanky yank with the moniker of Mr Consistent said goodbye to us all.  After 8 years of loyalty to our club, trips away, dashes from the airport on early Saturday mornings just to get to the course and play with his mates at Ivanhoe.  We presented Oliver with his HOLE_IN_ONE trophy for hole #7 shot he played last week and cheered him off into the sunset.  What a good bloke and great member of the club.  Thanks for the memories.  We’ll miss you Oliver.  Keep the calendar clear for our visit in the future to play in Colorado.  We’d love to catch up in the Rockies for a game.  PS Oliver has donated some of his golf clubs for any member who wishes to see if that class can rub off in their game – unfortunately NOT the famous 3-wood.

Ever the bridesmaid at the moment, Stefan came in a distant second but with a super round of 63 (posting a 70 off the stick).  It won’t be long before Stef cracks the number 1 spot.  Equal third to Targe, Gordo and Ken (the dark Horse) Grist – welcome back for the day – with 66, Chrispy 4th on 67 and Bob and Keith rounding off the point-takers with 68’s.  Great to see Rod back after a short break from the game with an injury and a sojourn overseas.

As we can see some very good scoring today.  Money to Michael on the 18th and ball NTP to Keith on the 15th with a super shot that came to rest a mere metre from the hole.

Keep in mind the Matchplay qualification comes up soon March 7 as well as nomination to play is still available.  Our AGM is coming up on March 14 also.

NOTE: the allocation of bonus points from the teams competitions may be allocated to a separate competition scoreboard rather than adding them to the Individual Club Champion competition as is currently the case.
