Veteran’s Golf: July 23

By Graham Turvey

President Paul Gorman won the Bernie Behringer Memorial par 3 event over 24 holes at Aberdeen Golf Club on Tuesday, 23^rd July with nett 69. It was great that Paul has recovered so well from being in hospital recently. We wish Bob Thorley all the best as he is a bit crook at present; get better like Paul has Bob!

Thank you to Doug Dowell for setting up the par 3 course for us to enjoy.

There were 23 players and in second place was Peter Daunton 75, 3^rd Terry Mitchell 76 and 4^th Tony Pearson 77 C/B. Balls went to Doug Dowell, Rod Auld and Jim Elder 77, Bob Colbert 78, Gerrit de Boer 79, Rod Upton, Gary Gray and Elie Raad 80 and on 82 Brian White.

Nearest the pins: 1^st/10^th Bob Colbert   3^rd/12^th Ross Banks   4^th/13^th Jim Elder   5^th/14^th Brian Dever   6^th/15^th Terry Mitchell   7^th/16^th Gary Gray   8^th/17^th Wayne Murphy   9^th/18^th Rod Auld
