MIXED NORSE CUP RESULTS

Today saw another successful mixed event, however this one was one which had a slight twist! Although you entered as a pair the pairings are thrown into the pot and the only thing that is certain is that you will not be playing with your original partner!

Rhoda Fraser certainly did well with her new partner, junior member Allan Easton, when they returned the winning score of 43 stableford points! Well done to both.

The full results were as follows:

Rhoda Fraser and Allan Easton 43,
Lesley Haynes and Pete Barnett 42
Annette Grewar and Iain Butchart 38

Well done to all and I will post photo's tomorrow!

Well done to four very clever ladies on Saturday who all posted nett 70's. It therefore went to better inward halves and top of the leader board was junior member Emily Aird. Well done Emily.

Full results are as follows:

Emily Aird (19) 70
Rhoda Fraser (25) 70 bih
Lesley Haynes (21) 70 bih

STRATHMORE VISITORS

The normal mode of transport for visiting parties is bus however this Saturday a group of visitors arrived in grand style via 'Virgin Balloon'.


It was an awesome sight for all who witnessed the magestic landing, albeit they did clip a tree on the range!!

Some did wonder if perhaps they played last week and lost a few balls in the rough and decided to use an ariel view to locate them!!

Hope you enjoy the slide show below, photo's are courtesy of Frank and Jackie Moran.
