Saturday’s Men’s Individual Stroke competition saw 53 men compete.
In the Men Div 1, Barry Parker compiled a nett 69 to take the honours. While the runner-up was Andrew Grierson with 71 nett. He was looking good after the front-9 but a couple of bogeys coming home dented his efforts.
In the Men Div 2 Laurie O’Connor played some good golf to score a 69 nett. His played well except for a calamitous 11th hole. Runner-up was Fons Melisi with an even par 72 nett. His was a day of steady golf. The NTP’s were: 9th – Stuart Thomas; 18th – Paul Pymont. The Pro Shop Superpin, played on the 9th hole, went to Stuart Thomas who was getting ready to celebrate but his ball stopped 80 cm short of the hole. The ball sweep went to 74 nett.
On Sunday the Final leg of the ‘Trilogy of Golf’ was played at West Wyalong. Again Forbes players figured prominently among the prizes. The Trilogy Scratch was a joint win by Caleb Hanrahan and Ecky Dawson, with Shane Sallaway taking 3rd. The Trilogy Nett had Forbes players in 2nd (Josh Coulthurst) and 4 th (Jordan Wright).
Josh Coulthurst also took the B-Grade Scratch honours, with Ecky Dawson the A-Grade Scratch runner-up and the Vets Scratch Runner-up.
This weekend the Men’s comp is the June Monthly Medal, sponsored by BWR Accountants & Advisors. There is a Stableford Medley on this Sunday.
