Saturday Stableford sponsored by the Black Sheep Irish Pub

 
Young Lachlan Bill, at the tender age of 14 years and a bit, had the kind of round that many of us can only dream about, and most will never achieve. Lachlans round of one over par 68 off the stick easily gained him the trophy voucher to the Black Sheep Irish Pub as well as the title of Tully Park Junior Champion 2013. This excellent round earned him 44 points, which gave him a 9 point lead over his nearest rival, Brian Norris, who carded 35 points. Next was Josh Cooper (33) and Anthony Cooper (29). Lachlans handicap has taken a pounding as a result, losing more than a shot, taking him to a 7.7 handicap. This boy is certainly one to watch.

 
 

Stroke and Monthly Medal, with thanks to the Gordon Hotel

 
An excellent rollout enjoyed perfect weather and less than perfect golf as the competed in the Monthly Medal at Tully Park Golf Club on Sunday. Sponsored by the Gordon Hotel, competition is always fierce for the weekly voucher. This weeks winner was Col Eggins who carded an excellent nett 61, 3 shots clear of Andrew Nolan (64) (on holidays from Crookwell) and Scott Nolan (65). Kerrie Bensley (65), Eddie Hawkins (67), The Don Grimston (68) Tony Clewett (68) and Tom “Joe Blake” Heath (68) rounded out the ball rundown. Scott Nolan won A Grade along with a mystery holes competition, donated by Greg and Kylie Hosking. Col Eggins and Tony Clewett were the B and C Grade winners. Gary Spence won the Nearest to the Pin on the 7th hole while Eddie Sivell was closest on the 13th. Meanwhile Don Grimston won the Progressive Comp with nett 34.

Next weeks comp is a single stableford event, with the annual Captain vs President match the following week. Rumours have it that Captain Scott has had the Presidents phone tapped in order to gain some small advantage. President Chuck reckons that Captain Scott will need all the help he can get.
