week three seniors thursdays
Another cool and wet start for the seniors on thursday june 2nd.
But that did not deter 12 of the most hardy of golfers, from enjoying the game.
the morning started off with a slow misty rain which lasted for the first few holes, then the weather got a bit better.
The course is coming along nicely, with all of the care it is getting from staff at the golf course.
The format for the day was 4 threesomes playing a version of best ball with a few differences
.
off the tee all players teed off and then the best shot was selected, from there the second shot was alternate shot,
once the tee shot was selected, one of the other two players hit the ball, then the next player hit the ball.
Once the ball was on the green then all of the players putted the ball until the ball was in the hole.
The team of Ray Laquerre, Harold Mosley and Richard Lampi had the best luck at this format and ended up with a
37 in the first nine and a 39 on the next nine for a total of 76 on the day. Ther scored one birdie during the round.
Vern Herbert, Ed Kennedy and Scotty Russell turned in a 85 on the day , good for second place.
Jean Lambert , Ted Mcleod and Wayne Thomas teed off on 1 and ended up with a score of 86 with a birdie on 11.
good for third place on the day.
Vern Craven , Allan Bruyere and Pete Barna ended the day with a 93, as they could not catch a break all day.
this format was not very popular and will not be used again as some playesr only got to hit the ball once,
or at best two times per hole.
