Solid Saturday Stableford at Macksville Country Club

GOOD weather, great course and big field saw a lot of low scores in the Mitre 10 sponsored Single Stableford on Saturday.

Eighteen players had net 36 or better, indicating how well the course is playing.

Phil McWilliam with a net seven under par 43 had the best net score which won him Division 2 by two shots from runner up Bob Lindsay.

John Fortescue won Division1 (handicaps under18) by one shot from John Williams.

Feature of the day was Michael Trisley’s hole in one on the 3rd.

Unfortunately it was on the wrong hole to get him nearest the pin.

Nearest the pins went to Ross Donnelly and Glen Taylor.

Graham Vincent finished the day in the top half of the field with a creditable 34 points off a 25 handicap.

In future he will be the second regular Club player in his 90’s along with Dale Brunsdon.

Cheryl Fortescue continued her good form to win the ladies Stroke event with Helen Ferrero finishing runner up . Desma Hughes was the straight shooter with nearest the pin.

Low handicappers Max Graham and Brad Fortescue were winner and runner up respectively in the Mid Week Stableford competition.
