Blue Tee Texas Scramble Event
A very rare phenomenon occurred on Saturday at Herons' Reach Golf Resort; we had three of the exact same scores come in a Texas Scramble event, the winner was decided with a card playoff. Congratulations to the team of Justin Hatcher, Norman Heywood, Geoff Davidson and Jim Moseley on piping the teams of Pete Lord, Jeff Park, Steve Johnson, Colin MacDonald who finished 2nd and Steve Marshall, Dave Greaves and our very own Matt Mustow and Paul Heaton who were beaten into 3rd place.
With three great scores of 61.6, giving a 12.4 under par total from the Championship tees all three teams played tremendously well in tough conditions and all should be proud of their great play. A special mention to the 4th place team of Steve Richardson, Steve Lynn, John Cardwell and Andy Miller who finished just 0.2 of a shot outside the prizes, and would have taken the top prize had John's birdie putt on the tough par 3 16th hole found the bottom of the cup and not the lip. Commiserations chaps!!
Trinity Hospice Trophy - This Saturday
A quick reminder that this Saturday (30th) is the Trinity Hospice Trophy competition.

Bag Offer - 25% OFF
BAGS 25% OFF all in stock bags until 6pm Sunday 7th June*
We have noticed that a lot of members over the last few weeks have some bags that have seen better days, shall we say!!
What we can't understand is why someone would spend £500+ on the latest golf equipment and then protect that investment in a golf bag with bits falling off it and holes in the fabric letting all sorts of weather penetrate the bottom of their golf bag. So with that in mind we have a huge range of bags now in stock from all your favourite brands including Nike, TaylorMade and Callaway; and we are giving you a HUGE 25% OFF all of them!!
