Scone Golf: Jan 14-16

Filed in Sports Recent by January 21, 2016

ON Saturday, January 16, at Scone Golf Course the men played the annual NAGA Cup and Mug. A very good field turned out in cooler weather than normal. It was a two Man Ambrose for the Red Palmer and Neil Clydsdale Trophy. The winners of the NAGA Cup were Charlie Manning and Mick Alsleben who had 63 nett. The Mug winners were John Murray and John Kevans. The conditions were quite heavy after the rain, and a strong wind for the later players also made the going tough.

The NTP on the 2nd / 11th was won by Phil McGuirk 1.05 metres and on the 8th / 17th by Charlie Manning 3.58 metres. Balls were won by Charlie Manning and Mick Alsleben 63, Adam Russell & Adam Moore 63 1/4; Bud Vero & Jake Teague 65 1/4; Glen Tarrant & Luke Eather 65 3/4; Derek Field & Simon Hodge 65 3/4; Brenan Reeves & Brad Hockley 66 1/2; Graham Brown & Scott Shann 66 1/2; Scott Reid & Matt Bailey 66 1/4; George Davidson & Ross Banks 67.

On Saturday the event is an 18 Hole Stableford for the Rod Spratt and Kerry Benning Trophy and it is also round 1 of the Summer Shield.

In the ladies 18 Hole Stableford last Saturday, four players went out in the morning. Kerry McLennan had her best ever score and this enabled her to have 43 points which was a terrific round in the conditions. Lyn Banks won a ball with 31 points. 

On Thursday, January 14, five ladies headed out early for play on the back nine. The winner was Jo Brown who had 18 points with Kathy Robinson and Marie Murray winning balls. On January 21, the ladies will play the front nine for a prize from the The Nook whilst next week Fridge and the Frying Pan café will be the sponsor.

The Wednesday 9 hole comp from the red tees is being well supported and there were some great scores last week. Waid Crockett won with 30 points, 2nd was Dave O’ Brien on 27 whilst 3rd was Kevin Bailey on 24.
