Martin and Green blow the rest of the field away

Wednesday March 31, 2010

A good field of 30 turned out on Easter Monday to contest a 4 ball aggregate event for the men’s golf
competition with Colin Green and Jade Martin finishing with 88 points to blow the rest of the field away.
Well back in the field were Alec Burton and Matt Russell (77) and Brien Obray and Troy Hartman (75). The best individual scores were hit by Green (48) and Russell (41).
Nearest the pins were recorded by Green, Max, Phillips, Murray Robotham and Jacob Ryan.
Friday kick-started the Easter weekend of men’s golf with a 4BBB Stableford event.
The team of Peter Brien and Troy Hartman claimed a win with 45 points.
They were followed by Bill Bartlett and Alec Burton (44).
The best individual scores were recorded by Bartlett (38) and Hartman (37).
Nearest the pin prizes went to Will Brown and Bian Smith.
The annual Kelly Cup was contested on Saturday attracting a field of 20 players.
This prestigious event was won by Peter Brien with a two over par round to give him a winning score of 63 net.
He was chased home by young Jacob Ryan (66) and Alec Burton (67). Nearest the pin prizes went to Brien, Robbie Cummins, Tom Mooney and Garry Dunn.
Sunday was a Stableford event and the 46 points recorded by Alec Burton was good enough to see him take home the ‘cookies’.
He was followed by Ian Prendergast (43) and Jacob Ryan (39).
Only two nearest the pin shots were recorded by Peter Brien and Robbie Cummins.
Last Wednesday’s game had 12 starters to contest a Stableford event with Alec Burton (35) winning from Bruce Mitchell (33) and Bian Smith (31).
Nearest the pins prizes went to Neville Fugar and Daryn Lord.
This Saturday is the Long Ride Charity Day for Prostate Cancer event.
This is a two person 6x6 Stableford event.
There appears to be some confusion as our program book lists it as a mix event however actually it is a two person event (mixed women’s and men’s teams allowable on the day). This should be a good day so hopefully all golfers will come along and support this worthwhile charity “Because you never know when!”
Sunday is the mixed Keno 4BBB qualifier with the first three teams to go on to compete in the final at Coonamble at the end of May .—contributed
