                    Outing to Naunton Downs GC  4th November 2011

The Anniversary Cup for 2011 was attended by 31 players, a great turn out especially for this time of year. The mild weather was welcomed albeit that the last 4 or 5 holes were played in heavy rain.

Before commencing play Chairman Phil outlined the rules for the Yellow Ball team competition which was played in conjunction with the individual Stableford where “no gimmes” was introduced. This was deemed to be a great success as putting out is the norm in most golf competitions, and will be continued with the exception of when playing on temporary greens.

The Chairman’s Cap was awarded to Russ Ralph as he had scored 26 points on the back 9 holes at Broadway in The Pork Pie fiddle the previous day. It was a pity he couldn’t keep it going at Naunton Downs!!

The Yellow Ball team competition was won with 36 points by Duncan Beale Bobby Hooper Steve Jordan and David Morris – well played – just one team failed to return with the yellow ball intact!! No names no pack drill.

                     
               The winning Yellow Ball Competition Team

The main competition was closely fought and despite the rain over the last few holes good scores were recorded. In joint third place were Phil Bennett and Simon Waldron on 36 points, 

                                                                 

                        Champion Nev!

Runner up on 37 points was Bill Payne and a very popular winner was Neville Jelfs with 38 points. Despite a bout of cramp Nev managed to limp up and receive the Cup from Chairman Phil.

The nearest the pin on the 6^th hole was won by Noel Hughes, with Ray Cordes winning the nearest the pin in 2 strokes on the 16^th hole.

A golfers supper was enjoyed at NDGC with the après golf drinks held at the clubhouse.

Next outing  Henley in Arden Golf Club on 29^th December 2011.

The entry list is at The Bell and full details for the day will be advised within the next few days.

Happy golfing

Russ Ralph.
