Scores for Saturday 19 September 2026


The course is undergoing a lot of maintenance work with new bunkers being installed or repositioned, the greens have also been hollow tyned and sanded. I'm sure all this work make the course much better in the future.

Last week's Captain's day resulted in a haul of prizes for the Earlybirds and ex Earlybirds.

Duncan, 1st team
Paul, 2nd team
Andy, 4th team
Roger G, nearest in 2 on 18th
Peter C, 4th team and second best stableford
Coenraad nearest the pin

On to today's golf, James is our winner today with 33 points and Martin Deery coming in second with 32. Well done to both of you. Some fine front nine scores of 18 points apiece for Dan and Coenraad.

Reports of Roger's lost Pink Panther head cover had a good outcome after he found that he had dropped it loading his car in morning.

From on course reporter Roger Gibbs

"On the 2nd Hole, drive just short of the bunkers. Hit a 5 iron dead straight on the flag and caught a rather large branch on the tree on the left. Instead of dropping down left or right, it ran 100 yards back down the fairway just short of the bunker. A flushed 5 iron all of 20 yards. 150 yards to tree and 130 back 🙁🙁🙁"

The average gross score today was 97.44 and the average Stableford score was 29.00.

Best gross of the day was from with 83.

There were 0 Eagles or better today.

There were 2 birdies today.

Dan Smith with 1 on hole 16.

Today was the last swindle game of the year so it brings a close to the competitions we run during the year. Player of the year Race to de Bar Gross Eclectic Stableford Eclectic Many people today said it was cold but not for Steve Reynolds, he was on fire with a very impressive 77 gross and 39 points beating second place Richard by 10 points. Probably some of the lowest Stableford scores of the year. Another year of golf comes to an end and it's time to announce the winners of both the Player of The Year and the Race to De Bar. Player of the year     The winner of Player of The Year is Richard Hyne well done Richard winning by four points from Jason and Jock. Race to de Bar The winner of Race to De Bar is Richard Hyne well done Richard winning £60 net. That is Richard's first win of either competition a rise from 10th and 15th places from last year. Gross Eclectic Won by James Miller with 59, four shots ahead of the next players and nobody scored an eagle this year. Stableford...

Weather was kind to us today with only a few spots of rain about half way around, course being quite soggy in places . On the course they have now opened all the new bunkers and cut down all the trees and bushes around the lake adjacent to the 10th green. It looks much better from the 18th tee and now you should be able to see if a sliced tee shot goes into the water or not. This is the first swindle game of the year with the first two being cancelled due to the course being closed with frozen greens. I am sure everybody is pleased to be back playing golf after the long lay off.  Excellent round by Steve Reynolds to take first place with twelve pars a gross of 79 and Stableford of 36 points, a great start to the year for Steve after a poor 2025. Dan also had a poor year in 2025 and a back 9 win today will hopefully mean a better year this year. In fact Dan also won the back 9 on his first game last year. Second place goes to Andy with a score of 34 points, Dan, Paul and Jason all b...

A cold start to the day with frost on the greens for the early starters, the sun came out later making it a great day for some great golf. The great golf came from Steve Reynolds today with a fabulous 37 points to win by 8 shots. This must be one of the largest winning margins we have ever had, well done Steve. A great start to the year moving Steve to the top of both the money and points lists. A fine second for Jason on 29 points tied with two others, Martin Deery and Coenraad, Jason taking it on count back. Many a missed putt by both Jason and Martin. Dan Smith taking the front nine despite injuring his back on the fourth hole,  he sounded like Monica Seles on almost every shot with various grunts and groans. Most of us struggled in the rough with mud on golf balls and on fairways riddled with worm casts, it looked in places like the worms were taking over the golf course.  One more swindle game next week followed by four weekends of club competitions. The average gross sco...
