Seniors December Medal
What a difference a day makes!! Yesterday - gale force winds and lashing it down ... today - bright sunshine and virtually windless. Thanks to the green-keepers for making the course playable today.
Twenty-seven seniors competed in the Stableford medal today which was postponed earlier this month due to on-going ground-works. Only two ladies could play today, so it was played as a mixed medal. Also, a couple of non-seniors (Jeremy & Jason) played with us today (not in the competition) and were made very welcome. Due to the damp conditions (I guess), the scores weren't record-breaking and in fact the competition was calculated as being "reductions only".
Today's winner with a score of 35pts was Raymond Bilton. The runner-up was decided on count-back with Barry Heath just edging out Linda Vale, Derrick Perrin and Jim Green after all four carded 34pts.
Full result - click here.
Just two 2's were recoded this month - Raymond Bilton (2nd hole) and John Day (6th hole). This was a roll-over pot from last month and, as Raymond didn't enter the two's, John scooped the "jackpot"!!

Turkey Trot
Just fourteen players for this year's Turkey Trot Stableford competition played with just two clubs and a putter. A small field, but a good time was had by all competitors and some excellent scores returned!!
Today's winner was Geoff Denner with 39pts. Runner-up, just one point further back was the in-form John Baron followed by Jason Allum in third place on 37pts. They are now all wondering why they lug the other 11 clubs around with them week after week!! All players earned a prize for today thanks to the generosity of captains Paul and Sian.

There was also an extra prize for the best dressed turkey!!! No contest ... Kim Richardson by a mile!!!

Wendy Seymour Texas Scramble
A very enjoyable and successful day today at the Racecourse for the annual Wendy Seymour Texas Scramble. The players assembled early at the clubhouse for some bacon rolls and beverages ready for a shotgun start at 8:30. Our thanks go to the Wessex Club for providing the catering for this before first light!! Twenty teams of three competed today including seven teams of visitors. It was nice to see many ex-members and old friends still supporting this event and special thanks to Paul Seymour & Dan for presenting the prizes. Overall we raised £342 today for the Rarer Cancers Foundation - thanks to everyone for their generosity.
Appropriately, the top scoring team overall today were Dan Seymour, Scott Vodkins & Charlie Butler who scored a very impressive 53.2 (gross 60) to take the prize of the best visiting team.
For the club event, the winners were Roy Martinez, Ian Martinez & Mike Smith on 55.0 (gross 64). Runners-up on count-back were John Day, John Baron & Stuart Briginshaw whose back 6 holes was just fractionally better than Derrick Perrin, Jim Green & Tommy Lees after both teams scored nett 55.4

Seniors Stableford
Unfortunately, the scheduled Seniors Medal had to be cancelled today as two of the holes were closed due to ongoing groundworks on the course. No matter ... the thirty-eight players who attended today played a 16-hole Stableford competition instead! The Seniors Medal has been re-scheduled to Thursday 19th December. Chilly conditions again today with some light drizzle first thing, but it soon cleared away.
The winner of today's competition was Gordon Turner with an excellent 39pts - pretty good for just 16 holes!! The next three players all returned 36pts with Richard Aldred claiming the runners-up spot on count-back just ahead of Jim Green and Allan Trotman.
