Outing to The Vale Golf Club on 8th March 2012
The opening outing for the 2012 season was held at The Vale Golf Club in Evesham.The International course is one of the longest in the country and whilst the tees of the day were forward it still presented a challenge in distance. The greens generally were in good condition albeit that some were under treatment. After a full English breakfast 29 members played an individual Stableford competition, in pleasant early spring weather. The overall scoring reflected the difficulty that the length of the course presented but some excellent scores were recorded, not least by Warren McDivitt who won the event with 40 points from the ever steady Steve Heritage on 39 points with Duncan Beale (off his reduced handicap) in third place with 37 points.
