24 hours is a long time in golf as on the 13th hole on Saturday Gary Ridout walked off the course looking more like a drowned rat than a human.

Sunday morning in similar conditions Gary tees off on the 3rd with his 7 iron and watches it pitch and thought that it had jumped to the left. After a quick look to the left of the green they found the ball nestled in the bottom of the cup.

Congratulations Gary on your first hole in one.

Saturday 16th January presented the players with overcast skies and rain periods. Nothing special about the morning, a Stroke round in what we would have thought to be tough conditions.

Not so for our long time member Robert Mead, current holder of the course record of 66.  Though the showers and wind Rob reeled off 6 birdies, 3 bogeys and 9 pars to set a new course record of 65 off the stick.

Congratulations to Rob who has been in strong form recently playing yesterdays round off 3.

Well done and we are now looking forward to a 64.
