COMMONWEALTH SPOONS RESULTS
Not the best of days to be playing golf, however what can be said is that Killin Golf Course was absolutely beautiful, a hidden gem. I was totally impressed with both the scenery and the excellent condition of this super little 9 hole course. Pity the weather didn't match it!
Although none of our ladies made it to the top 4 places, we didn't fair badly. The winners were mother and daughter pairing Caroline and Karen Dunbar (Aberfeldy) who scored 67 1/2. Other scores were as follows:
1st Caroline and Karen Dunbar (Aberfeldy) 67.5
2nd Moira Chapman and Dorothy Whytock (King James V1) 70.5
3rd Liz Miskimmin and Dorothy Benzies (Auchterarder) 72
4th Joan Ritchie and Sandy Young (Auchterarder) 72
Strathmore members Annette Grewar and Rhona McGeoghegan just missed out on a place with 72.5 and both Sheena Peacock and Joan Merry and Dawn Butchart and her partner Janet Griffiths had 73.5.
Remember and get your entries in for Alyth which is on the 12 June.

RESULTS FROM COUNTY CHAMPIONSHIP
Marion Robertson was the only Strathmore player to make it to the semi finals of the County Championship which was held at Blairgowrie Golf Club this weekend. Marion won a very close quarter final against Fiona Johnston (Alyth) at the 21st hole. On Sunday she played Carol Turner (Alyth) (picture above) and although played very well, lost 3 &2. Carol went on to win the Final in the afternoon. It has to be said that Marion did have a super caddy in Rhona McGeoghegan who kindly assisted Marion on both days.
Lucy Gilmore lost her match in the handicap section against Janey Heaney (Callander) and Dawn Butchart who qualified in the scratch section was beaten by the number one seed Jacqueline Snedon (Alyth). The eventual winner was squad member Jillian Milne (Craigiehill) who beat Jane Yellowlees (Murrayshall) on the 18th green by 2 holes.
Full results are available on the P&K Website and Gillian Kirkwood site, the links for both are on the right of this screen.
Well done Marion and well done to Lucy and Dawn for qualifying.

CONGRATULATIONS MARION!!
Marion Robertson is top seed in the Handicap Section of the Perth and Kinross County Championship. When all of us struggled round a blustery Landsdowne course Marion was one of only three players, out of the 114 who took part, to score below their handicap. Well done Marion.
Strathmore also have another two players who have reached the finals. Lucy Gilmour also qualified for the last eight of the handicap and Dawn Butchart qualified in the Scratch section of the competition.
The handicap section will play one round on Saturday and the winners will go through to the semi finals on Rosemount on Sunday morning and the final in the afternoon. The scratch section have 16 qualifiers and will play two rounds of matchplay on both Saturday and Sunday. Saturday will be on Landsdowne and Sunday on Rosemount.
Every other lady will be pleased to hear that it was a reduction only competition, CSS 76. Therefore Marion will be the only lady to have her handicap adjusted. There is no need to return your scores to me.
Good luck to our three ladies on Saturday. I will keep you posted on their progress.

CAPTAINS DRIVE IN
Saturday saw the official opening of Strathmore Golf Club for the 2006 season. 64 members turned out to see out Captains Annette Grewar and Jack Scott hit the first official drives of the season. Under extreme pressure they performed well and both hit drives up the fairway.
Annette and Jack on the Tee!
As always We each bought a flag and placed it where we thought Annette and Jack would land.
Jack tees off 
Knocking knees doesn't stop Annette hitting a great shot.
A Great Day was had by all and monies were raised for charity. Although the Captains started the day on a good note unfortunately they did not go on to win Pat's Putter. This was won for the first time since 1996 by the Vice Captains Team led by Jane Taylor and Lewis Duncan.
Lewis Duncan (Vice) Jane Taylor (Vice)
Annette Grewar and Jack Scott (Captains)
This was a great start to the season albeit we did suffer from heavy rain and hail storms. Everyone enjoyed the day and showed our support to our Captains.
Pete Tinker certainly put the icing on the cake when he aced his shot on the 13th. This was Pete's first ever hole in one. Pete celebrated his achievement by providing all with a welcolme drink. (Expensive day for a hole in one!!) Well done Pete.
We all now look forward to a super season. Well done Annette for a great start.

When most of us were wrapped up at home or sitting (like me) in a cosy office, five very brave ladies went for a invigorating game of golf!! Gillian Allardice, Mary McDiarmont, Rhona McGeoghegan, Sheena Peacock and Marion Robertson were the ladies who braved the elements and played their winter league on what was one of the coldest days yet!! I couldn't believe it when Marion phoned with the days results. Hats off to you all!! But special congratulations must go to our player of the moment Gillian Allardice who once again played under handicap with 25 points!! Excellent play Gillian. The runner up was Rhona with a very respectable 23 points.
Well done to all the ladies who played today and I do hope it is better for your next week. Although I don't know what there is that could possibly make you stay at home!

GOOD NEWS AND BAD NEWS
The good news is that the back 9 are open....Hurray.....The bad news is that the front nine is still closed...Ahhhh. The problem seems to be the 4th and 5th holes where the sun doesn't reach and therefore they have iced over. However with the forecast sounding promising with temperatures reaching 9 degrees today and over night, fingers are well and truly crossed for the weekend.
I am going away for the weekend so will be unable to post any changes just give the office a ring for updates. But at least we can get out and play now!!! Leitfie Links is also open.

BOXING DAY BASH
Some 20 members took the opportunity to walk off all that Christmas food by taking part in our annual Boxing Day Texas Scramble. For once the weather was actually very nice! We split up into five groups, each group consisted of four players one being a lady who was elected team captain. It was a great day with lots of fun. The scoring was very good, the winning team was captained by Dawn Butchart with team members Iain Butchart, Ian Taylor and Tony Sive. Their gross score was 59 which included 4 2's!! The net was 52.75.
The results were as follows:
1st Dawn Butchart, Iain Butchart, Ian Taylor & Tony Sive 52.75
2nd Sandy Bushby,John Wood,Bob Thomson & Homish Campbell 55.875
3rd Chris Tinker, Pete Tinker, Eric Gray & Rod Hale-Brooks 56.55
Here are some pictures of the day.
A wee drink after play!
