We set out with thirteen golfers at Treasure Hill, not the easiest of courses but it is a good, well maintained venue and the price is also quite reasonable. The course today was in tip-top condition but the scores did not reflect that and there were some mediocre results.
The “Viper” Mark Stapleton returned with a score of 35 points to put him one shot clear of his nearest rival, Colm Lawlor, who was beaten by the narrowest of margins and at one stage had amassed 33 points with 4 holes still to play! A further point in arrears was Dave Maw in third position.

Mountain Shadow was our destination for today and out 20 golfers attacked the course from the white tees. The greens were true but fast and the bunkers were in good order. If you ventured from the fairways however you could find yourself in deep trouble.
With today’s numbers we were able to play two flights and the A Flight saw Mark Stapleton make it 3 wins from 3 with a score of thirty seven points. Second past the post was Dave Maw two shots in arrears and third home was ‘Buffalo’ Bill Steinman, giving away a few shots in the handicap stakes!
B Flight saw Andrew ‘The Turtle’ Allen not at all slow out of the blocks and his score of 41 was the best by far on the day. Second home was Patrick Poussier a full 8 points behind today’s leader and in third place was Roger Ellis with 31.
