Today was a field day for the club veterans with  four of the top five players all holding seniors cards!!! Vin would have liked this result and is having a second chuckle to himself after washing out the competition last year.

The Vin O’Meara Xmas Competition was won by Allan Davies with 126 strokes closely followed by runner up Rodger Clarke with 130 points. Allan grimly hung on to his first round lead which Rodger closed by a stroke but not quite enough to take the win. Congratulations also to Jan, Bob and Harry who ran third today.

I’ve been experimenting with the golf information in the handicapping database and if you click on ‘Your Statistics‘ (on the right lower side of the page) you’ll be able to lookup your stats and all scorecards since you started.
