CHARITY STABLEFORD (3)
Did we have our summer in April?? Going by the wind yesterday and the day before it would appear to be the case. However the wind did not deter Rhona McIntosh who returned a magnificent score of 40 stableford points. Closely followed by Annette Grewar with 39 points. Well done both. The full result is as follows:
CSS 72
Rhona McIntosh (31) 40
Annette Grewar (15) 39
Lesley Haynes (25) 37
Sheena Scott (11) 34
With such great scores in the conditions both Rhona and Annette received a well deserved cut to their handicap:
Rhona was 31 now 29.0 playing 29
Annette was 15 now 13.8 playing 14
Well done and lets hope the wind will completely blow itself out by next week!
PS very sorry that the result was not in the papers this morning but I didnt get home till 9pm and just had to watch The Apprentice and when I called at 10pm copy desk was closed early!!

STRATHMORE SCRATCH LEAGUE TEAM
Stathmore Ladies Section have entered a team for the Scratch League for the very first time this year. All matches are played 'scratch' therefore no strokes are provided for wither player and the team is played in strict handicap order in single matches.
We were to play our very first match last Monday against Crieff however Crieff gave us a walk over ( 5-0) as they could not get together a team to play.
This Monday however we did play our very first match against Dunkeld and Birnam at Dunkeld. The Team consisted of our Scratch Team Captain Alexandra Bushby, Dawn Butchart, Sandy Bushby, Sheena Scott and Jane Taylor. Alex, Dawn and Sandy all won their individual matches and Sheena and Jane were narrowly beaten however this provided us with a win of 3 & 2.
Well done everyone. A great start to our year! I will keep you posted of the results.
As you can see from the photo we even have matching team sweaters!!

We are very proud of Alexandra's achievements. Well done Alex.

CONGRATULATIONS ALEXANDRA Huge congratulation go to Alexandra Bushby who yesterday took the title of 'Perth and Kinross County Champion 2007'. Alex played absolutely beautiful golf, a real joy to watch. As P&K Vice Captain and also her club mate I was extremely proud of her through-out the weekend.
Alex played myself in the first round and although I played well she was three under par over 13 holes and she won 6&5 then she played young Annabel Niven (Crieff) again winning 6&5. On Sunday she played Gwen Lambie (Dunkeld and Birnam) and again won 3&2. The afternoon's final was against Emily Ogivly (Auchterarder) who is a scratch golfer just home from 5 years in America. Emily has been a great team member for P&K over the years, Alex and Emily had a great game which was nip and tuck throughout. Alex won the game at the 18th after a level par match.
Full details will be posted on the P&K website with pictures of the weekend, I will post a link ASAP.
Alexandra is away this week at Kilmarnock Barassie as she is taking part in the Scottish Ladies (Close) Amateur Championship. Well done Alex and all the very best from us all for the week ahead.

CONGRATUALTIONS ALEXANDRA AND DAWN
On what can only be described as the most horrendous conditions Alexandra Bushby and Dawn Butchart both qualified for the Scratch Section of the Perth and Kinross County Championship. I played in the morning and came back with what I thought to be the most horrendous score of 91 but was unaware the scoring was so poor. The rain just did not stop to the extent that the greens required to be cleared of water continuously. Alex also came back with a score of 84 unsure if that was enough which is certainly was! Alex qualified in 4th position and I was in 13th.
The only downside is that as the draw is automatic, this means Alex and I will face each other in the first round which is a little unfortunate. However it is great to have 2 players in the top 16 of the county! I am also very pleased to have qualified for the last 6 years in a row!!
Here's hoping the weather is a little kinder.

LUCKY 13th
13 is not an unlucky number for some as junior member Matthew Bell proved on Saturday when he notched up his first hole in one! Matthew who is 16 played a 6 iron on the 159 yard par three. His playing partners were, Graham Haynes and Alistair Aird.
Matthew has had many sucesses already this season, he has won the Bellhaven qualifier, the April Medal and with a nett 65 on Saturday he also won the Gents Spring Meeting. Matthew started the season at 17 and with only a month of the season gone is down to 11.
Fantastic Matthew very well done!
SPRING MEETING
On a busy weekend with lots to report I will start with the main event! Our Spring Meeting took place on what was a glorious day. A great turn out once again and of course some super scores. Our overall winner was Sally Fenner with a nett 70, closely followed by junior member Megan Aird on nett 71. Best scratch score of the day was
Alexandra Bushby with 76. Well done all. CSS 72.
We also had some spot prizes:
Nearest the Pin Sandy Bushby:
Longest Drive Silver was won by Annette Grewar
Longest Drive Bronze, Mary Menzies
Most stayed for a late lunch and cakes!!
Full results were as follows:
Sally Fenner (21) 70
Megan Aird (17) 71
Mary Menzies (23) 72 bih
Jane Taylor (12 ) 72
Annette Grewar (15) 72
Alexandra Bushby (4) 72
Two lucky ladies reduced their handicaps they were:
Sally Fenner was 21 now 19.9 playing 20
Megan Aird was 17 now 16.4 playing 16
And least said about the 4th bunker the better!! However I am very pleased to report that Iain and I took part in the Montrose Mixed Greensomes yesterday and scored a scratch 71 nett 64.6. The par is 73 so we were delighted, there was only one scratch prize and we were 2nd, however we won 1st place in the handicap section. So that made up for said bunker!

RULES OFFICIAL
When Jane asked if I would be interested in going on a Rules Official's course which was to be organised by the SGU and the R&A I was very happy to take part, however at the beginning of the year I received the 'Rules and Decisions Book', example papers and the information regarding what the exam entailed I was a little apprehensive if not scared! Participants had to learn the first 28 rules and subsections and familiarise themselves with the decisions pertaining to them all! No mean feat when that part of the book is 436 pages long. I decided to set aside a few hours every day and even took the book and papers on holiday.
After a few months of study a two day course was held at the Headquarters of the SGU. This was both enjoyable and informative with talks from SGU officials, International Referees and R&A officials. There were also slide shows and a practical session held at Drumoig golf course. At the end of the course was the dreaded exam. This was in two parts. The first section of the first exam was a 20 question paper which gave different scenario's which you had to know the rule number and subsection of each one, without reference books. The second part again was 25 questions on a true or false basis again without reference books. The second part of the exam lasted 90 mins and although we were permitted the reference books it was very tough!
However three weeks later I have received my results. The required pass was 70%, the average mark for the course was 71.6% and I am really pleased to say I managed 85%. This now qualifies me to referee at Club and Area level. So I would like to thank Jane for having faith in me and should you have any queries regarding rules please ask, if I don't know the answer straight away I now know where to look!
Thanks
Dawn
