Sadly only 8 LEGS members made it for the Red LEGS match at Redlibbets on 16 May...
It was a glorious day, lots of red faces (& heads for the helmets), but the biggest red face should have been for Mark 'bandit' Bignell, who scored 40 points, having managed to increase his handicap prior to tee off. Majority decision from the committee, with full support from the Captain, is that Mark be duly cut by "Fore"?.. I hear in time for Captains day next month!
Mark did however breeze past Donald Allan in their Matchplay game - and taking the day's honours way ahead of his nearest rival in the field.
There were four NTPs but only three were won... these being Brendan Carroll on the 4th, John Capstick on the 7th and Nigel Halliwel on the 13th.
John picked up the prize for the fornt 9 with Brendan winning the back 9.
Nathan Portway and Winn Faira had a challenging day but well done for turning up!
Nigel Halliwell it seems had a testing first hole - here is the first of three balls going into the water on the opening tee...
(Shaun did give me a video - but I'm having problems embedding it here! Watch this space...)
Finally, here is Winn one of our newer members, successfully getting out of a hole - I'll spare his blushes by not revealing how many attempts he had but suffice to say they ran out of hamlet cigars and sand!
