Only a handful of Forbes golfers endured the conditions on the weekend to play their competition games. On Saturday the Men’s comp was changed to an 18-hole Individual Stableford. Division 1 was won by Phil Wells with 31 points. Runner-up was Dave Earl on count back from Neil McMillan after both scored 29 points.
The Division 2 players had the advantage of more handicap to play with. The winner was Nick Ryan with a scorching 42 points. A long way back was runner-up Bede Tooth with 35 points.
The NTP’s went to: 9th – Glen Hooper; 18th – Phil Wells. The 3rd Hole Super Pin went to Nick Ryan. The Ball Sweep went to: Rob Scott (31), Dennis McGroder (30) and Neil McMillan (29).
The Sunday Stableford Medley winner was Walter Bergmann with 30 points. There was no ball sweep. The NTP’s were a mix with nobody hitting the 9th, but Jesse Hamilton grabbing the 18th.
It is the Parkes Open this weekend, and hopefully the weather will not affect it.
At Forbes it is the Golf NSW 2-P Ambrose Medley tomorrow, and a Stableford Medley on Sunday.
