MORACK
Sunday, 12TH February, 2017
Format: Matchplay/stableford
February outing would have the club try out a new course in the shape of Morack. The weather had taken a bit of a turn with showers forecast, however, this proved to be not too bad in the end.
Matchplay semi-finals were at stake with Joe playing Colin and Barra and Taffy also going head to head.
Joe and Colin played out a very tight contest with no more than a hole in it throughout the day, the result ending in a draw, with Joe winning with a higher stableford score 28 to 27. In the other tie Taffy shot to an early 3 hole lead in the first four holes and Barra did little to threaten this as the round developed. Taffy went on to win 4 and 3 to advance to the final where he’ll play Joe at the Divot on the last game of the season.
23 would play the stableford match following a late scratching from Deeks. Koala was the one who adapted best to the new course with a score of 39 points to be wearing the jacket back at the club. Also picking up some prov1s and a polo shirt for his troubles.
One of the bookies pre-match favourites would not disappoint the punters as Tim would bring home the last group to sew up the NAGA trophy with a mere 24 points.
Nearest the pins; Tich (4th), Shug (6th), Taffy (10th), Ryan (13th), Christophe (16th)
Handicap adjustments; Koala cut 2 from 35 to 33, bottom 4 each slide a shot Tim 35 to 36, Bob 20 to 21, Andy Mac 24 to 25 and Colin 18 to 19.
The secret six was won by Macster with a tally of 15.
