2nd Dave Hewson (9) 33pts
3rd Paul Chesney (21) 32pts
4th Donal McGuigan (19) 32pts
5th Derek Phillips (16) 32pts
The big question today was who won, the golfers or the course? As not one of the twenty-four starters could play to handicap, it must surely go down as a win for Treasure Hill.
Paul Smith carried on his Green Jacket form from Friday to score 33 points in a head to head with Dave Hewson, scoring the same but beaten on countback. Paul Chesney beat off two other contenders, scoring 32 points to take third place on countback over Donal McGuigan and Derek Phillips.
Near pins went to John Pierrel, Phil Davies and Iain Jones.

1st Colm O’Donovan (16) 44pts
2nd Maurice Roberts (12) 42pts
3rd Kevin McEntee (11) 41pts
4th Derek Phillips (16) 40pts
When he arrived for this trip Colm O’Donovan stated that he wanted to get his handicap down to 16. Well, he did that with some top scoring and today smashed it again with an amazing 44 points at Burapha.
Only one flight today and finishing right behind Colm came some excellent scores to fill the podium. Maurice Roberts has had some good games recently and today’s 42 points, by far his best, gave him second place. Kevin McEntee chimed in with 41 points for third spot while Derek Phillips had one of his better days and, even though wiping ( blobbing) the last hole, put together 40 points to hold fourth place.
Near pins were claimed by Kevin McEntee, Colm O’Donovan, Jacob Cummings and Donal McGuigan.
