Monthly Medallists In Good Form

August 9, 2018 by Maggi Barnard

Saturday was the Monthly Medal, sponsored by Bernardis Marketplace, and contested by a field of 56 players.

The A-Grade winner and medallist was Paul Pymont with a nett 70. Runner-up was Andrew Dukes, who after being 3-over after 15 holes, had a few bogeys to finish with nett 72.

The B-Grade winner of the voucher was a visitor from St Georges Basin, Brian Druett, who scored 68 nett. Runner-up and winner of the Monthly Medal, was Garry Collits with 70 nett.

The C-Graders were led by Geoffrey Drane with a 70 nett followed close behind by Rod Besgrove on 71 nett.

The ball sweep went to 73 nett on count back, going to: 68 – G Druett; 70 – G Collits, P Pymont, G Drane, S Uphill; 71 – R Besgrove, B Thomas, R Webb; 72 – A Dukes; 73 – A Borger, B Tooth, P Kay, A Alley, N McMillan, B Carpenter. The NTP’s went to: 9th – Brian Everest; 18th – G Newport.

We welcomed a group of golfers from St George’s Basin. Some of them joined the comp while others played socially but they all enjoyed themselves.

Play on Sunday was the LVDGA Mens Keno 4BBB, with 46 players covering representation from Forbes, Parkes, Grenfell and West Wyalong clubs. There was no Stableford Medley.

The winners of the Handicap event and heading to the State final at Bonville were the pairing of Richard Nixon and Niel Duncan.

They finished with +8. Andrew Dukes and Michael Spice were runners-up on +7, ahead of Ralph Baker and Steve Grallelis on count back.

The Scratch event was dominated by Parkes players with Mitch McGlashan and Zac Kelly coming first on +4 and Myles and Blake Smith runners-up on -2.
