REID BOYS MAKE IT A HAPPY ANNIVERSARY FOR MUM AND DAD

Met Conan this morning after his round, he was playing in the Gents event and shot a gross 74 (40 points) and will have a well deserved handicap cut. Then had the pleasure to play with Jack and Keir in the afternoon. 

Keir had the best round of golf I have ever seen him play. He played steady on the front 9 and shot 47 for 20 points then the fireworks began. Remembering his handicap is 27.7 and he is only 10 years old his back 9 started with 4 straight pars, he bogeyed 14 after missing a par putt. But parred 15 before bogeying 16, parred 17 with a fantastic pitch from 50yds to within a foot. Then doubled 18 for an amazing back 9 of 39 and 27 points. 47 points will give him a big handicap cut. I am so pleased for him, his chipping and putting today was superb. Great preparation for Gogarburn next week, his confidence will be sky high. 

He plays Jack in the junior Club Championship handicap semi final on Wednesday and although they will be playing from the White tees I think Jack knows he’s in for a game. 

Ally Brass put his hired Rangefinder to great use and shot 37 points with the highlight being a birdie on 10. 

Louis and Olly also played to handicap. The banter again was great and seeing these kids all loving golf makes it all worthwhile.
