SHOT TRACKER: Bruce Chandler tees off with a cracker down the centre in the Saturday Stableford comp in Forbes.

Riley Pike used his early start to score 47 points which was good enough to outlast the 61 players in the field and capture the ‘Wilf Hodges Memorial Trophy’.

The Division 1 was won by Luke Flakelar (41 points) from runner-up Paul Pymont (40 points). The Division 2 results followed the Division 1 trend with high scoring. Riley Pike (47 points) was a clear winner from Andrew Quirk (43 points).
