Captain's Prizes

Well what a day Saturday was! Blue sky, sunshine, no wind, an awesome course, and over one hundred members playing in our first counting medal of the year! I must admit, on reading the scores on Sunday morning whilst drinking a cuppa here in the shop I was surprised at the scoring! I guess the rust is still with a few swings and the transition from mats to turf hasn't yet kicked in!

Calum Giffen carded an excellent scratch 69 (2) to scrape victory by one from Dave Smith, Paul Baker, Brian Main and Hector Robertson, an abundance of twos and I'd like to note a special congratulations to Harry Maxwell! From what his regular weekday golfing partners advise, it's usually threes that he goes for so the added bonus of a holed second shot at hole seven for eagle was an added bonus to his round!


 

Great Weather For A Great Course

The weather of late has been pretty awesome and over the weekend we hit temperatures of sixteen. It is a credit, as always, to our team on the links, the course continues to impress and the feedback from you the members and the visitors brings great pleasure to us all here at the club.

 

The Latest And Greatest From ECCO

Friday of last week saw some of the new range of ECCO footwear arrive, there is still more to come so keep your eyes peeled for other styles and our special offer of a FREE ECCO show bag with every ECCO footwear purchase. I've enclosed a snap of the model that's in-store at present with more expected this week.

 

Please Welcome Our Newest Team Member

Those of you who played on Saturday morning will have had the pleasure of Katrina checking you in for the medal, a little more glamorous than Fraser I think. I can now happily announce that she is joining us on a part time basis over the coming months as part of the team, Stewart is due to join me on Monday of next week which will get me to full capacity for the coming season, all looking good.

I'm wilting slightly as I now enter week seven of being here every day, but there's light at the end of the tunnel! For those of you playing this Saturday please note that Katrina and my good lady (Karen) will be helping me out, please be gentle as neither are overly familiar with the processes we have for a Saturday medal, and whilst I will be available at the end of the phone, I'm leaving you all in their capable hands as I have commitments in Edinburgh! They've been instructed to ignore "Ron said 50% off and free golf balls!" My thanks as always for your patience and support and here's hoping the great weather continues!
