Brilliant fun today - 6 enthusiastic juniors practised their putting before I picked the 2 teams to play a 9 hole Texas Scramble on Leitfie. Amy Mitchell declared she knew how the teams had been selected and with a quizzical look I asked why? to which her reply was "shoes" and right enough all 3 were wearing identical pairs. The rules were that each team member had to use 2 tee shots. Amy Mitchell , Cormac Sharpe and Jude Archibald shot an amazing 3-4-3-5-3-5-4-4-3 = 34 !! Megan Thom , Luke Archibald and Michael Davie scored a respectable 43. Amy will have to stop using driver on the 1st and 9th after being through the green on both and landing on the wrong 9th, great strike but a bit big.
In the afternoon it was decided to play a Texas Scramble on Rannaleroch. Teams were drawn from a hat (tammy) and the rules were 4 tee shots to be used for each player. Tod Bannerman , Peter Mattner and myself scored 4-3-4-3-4-2-4-5-5 = 34 4-3-6-2-4-4-4-3-4 = 34 total 68 . 4 under par = 7 birdies + 3 bogeys. Alex Simpson , Callum Ewan and Marcus Ryan retured a respectable 74.
It was really good to see so many out on the course and with Michael Brodie and Brad Bannerman playing in the Gents 4 Club event the Juniors were well represented today.
Alexei Butchart had a 3rd place in the under 10 section in Moscow to finish off his season and we look forward to seeing him next year.
