Mixed Foursomes - Easter Monday
It's the format we all love to hate! Foursomes ...... alternate shots and no chance to recover from those embarassing shanks. mishits and 'out of bounds'. However, the format did not deter the 24 couples who turned out to celebrate this Easter Monday with a round of golf in some glorious sunshine and dry conditions. The competition was organised by Kath and Ken Morpeth who most ably manage all our mixed trophy competitions. The results of the competition were a win for Amanda Pattison and James Hall with a creditable score of 71, followed by Gill and Colin Davison with a 72. Audrey Barker and Neil Armstrong came 3rd with a 73. Well done to you all and thanks to everyone who played on the day for your support. Though the format is not well liked, it does give many players the opportunity to play shots from parts of the course they would never normally see. We partnered Audrey Ashforth and Colin Walden and when Colin drove out of bounds on the 7th and the 9th, Audrey got the chance to tee off from the white tees. However, she got her revenge on the 10th, having also hit out of bounds, and Colin was able to drive off from the Ladies tees. Not many chances of that in the normal course of a round.
