PSC golf from The Fairway Golf Society
Monday, Jan. 31, Bangpra – Stableford
We arrived at Bangpra early today, as requested by the management as they had so many bookings. They started us of on the 10th tee at our original tee off time.
Much to our pleasant surprise there was no monkey business after nine holes and no hold ups. When we arrived at the 1st tee we had a clear course in front of us. We also noticed that there were no monkeys to be seen anywhere. So I asked my caddie where they had gone and she informed me that it was a monkey Buddha holiday, whatever that means?
Wednesday’s winners: Gary Jackson and Keith Allen.
Anyway on to the golf and 32 players today so we had 2 divisions. Alan Griffiths won the A Flight with 37 points and Tony Duthie, still on a roll, won the B Flight.
The 4 near the pin winners were Miss Mam, Keith Allen, Lee Butler and Barry Wellings.
A Flight
1st Alan Griffiths (12) 37pts
2nd Miss Mam (15) 32pts
3rd Andy Odell (10) 31pts
B Flight
1st Tony Duthie (21) 37pts
2nd Jan Van Spellen (19) 36pts
3rd Roy Dayton (22) 36pts
Wednesday, Feb. 2, Crystal Bay – Stableford
Another good turn-out of 30 players today so split into two divisions once again.
The scoring in both divisions was of a very high standard with a lot of golfers playing to their handicaps and 6 players below par. So maybe the course was playing a little easier than normal?
The star of the day was Keith Allen, who was cut last week from 16 to 14.5, but that did not seem to trouble him as he shot the round of his life to return 43 points.
Near pins went to Pier Cere, Andre Vandyk, Keith Allen and Brian Lewis.
A Flight
1st Keith Allen (15) 43pts
2nd Brian Lewis (18) 39pts
3rd Andre Vandyk (16) 37pts
B Flight
1st Gary Jackson (28) 39pts
2nd Roy Dayton (22) 39pts
3rd Dick Hobson (24) 36pts
Friday, Feb. 4, Treasure Hills – Stableford
This must be one of the best ‘value for money’ courses to play at the moment as it is in excellent condition. But yet again the course won on the day with only one player breaking par and only a handful of players scoring 30 plus points.
Two divisions today with the cut off at 17 and Richie Neville won the A Flight with 37 points while the still improving Patrick Engels took the B Flight.
Near pins winners were Richie Neville, Tony Duthie, Jorma and Ning Neal.
A Flight
1st Richie Neville (11) 37pts
2nd Scott Dobbin (0) 33pts
3rd Pier Cere (11) 29pts
B Flight
1st Patrick Engells (21) 35pts
2nd Harvey Samuels (18) 33pts
3rd Erich Sielek (20) 31pts
