A short trip to Astbury Bridgnorth was our 4th venue of the year, a par 71 medal comp faced a good turnout of 24 players inc.one visitor. A warm and muggy day for once saw a few tired legs at the end, with good difficult greens to read and semi rough (ball height) tested the better golfer. So keeping the ball on the fairway tee to green was the key. News soon got round that someone had shot a gross 39, 4 over for the 1st nine holes and playing off 26 gave him a net 26,9 under par. Surprisingly !! it turned out to be the winning score a gross 90 net 64,7 under. Captain Daz Brown being the victor on this occasion winning his 3rd major. 2nd with a respectable net 68,3 under par was John L. and 3rd was Carlos on the podium again this season with a net 71. Nearest the pins went to Weenie (33) and Arch Shaw (3) The wooden spoon once again went to Wayne.
Handicap changes saw Daz cut 1.12 on his stroke index, John L. .38 and Carlos 1.0 shot s back were Simon .87, Suki .75, Archie G. .63 and Nikky .50 Wayne’s handicap went up .75
GOTY. saw the top 4 players fail to score before todays event, Mitch still leads with Carlos on 18 points, with Badger and Daz B. one point behind on 17.
