THIS IS WHAT GOLF SHOULD BE ALL ABOUT

You could hear the roars from the first green as Ellie-Marie holed her putt for a 2 after James had just missed chipping in by a couple of inches. The fun the 16 participants had tonight was infectious and the scoring was exceptional when you consider only 2 players in the field have WHS Handicaps. Anna was playing her first Competition ever and with Jon who again has only played in fun events their score was amazing. The funniest thing was when they both missed the 2nd green and were discussing who’s shot they should play. Anna decided the easiest way was to measure and started by counting using baby steps, we all fell about laughing. The Juniors all enjoyed the experience and I think the parents who acted as markers had as much fun and got involved. Third place went to Mia and Andrew with 35, second place went to Ellie-Marie and James (our youngest player) with a very impressive 34 and the winners were Tarah and Keir who became the inaugural winners of the Strathmore GolfSixes Championship. Kirsten Miller who heads off to the USA on a Scholarship on Saturday came across for a chat and we were delighted when she expressed her gratitude to Dawn and I for making her dream a reality. Some days golf just gives you so many highs.
