Format; 2 ball best ball (9 drives each)
Back to Cape Schanck for the annual pairs event (Ambrose) Before we talk about the golf, I would just like to acknowledge how sad it was for all of the MGC members that the passing of our great friend Andy Mac, Our gallant leader and organiser Barra dragged his self away from his scooter rally to attend prior to the first tee off to say a few words and toast the legend Andy Mac.
In honour of Andy this event from next year will be a singles event known as the ANDY MAC memorial. RIP Big Pal.
As usual there was the early morning banter prior to the first tee and team photos which had Paul in a little bit of a frenzy when he had to have the photo take side by side with 3 blue noses wearing the rangers colours.
Before we get to the winners and duds well done to Colin, Koala and Billy A for the catering on the day.
Congrats to Joe and Biggsy on winning with a remarkable score of 63.25 and in Biggsy’s own words Joe and I hit everything down the middle all day (That would help)
The NAGA went to Spoon and Billy Mac after a bit of controversy on the 12th when, and I quote, we were still on the hole after half an hour and 2 groups were on the tee waiting, Spoon decided to NA the hole, this and this alone saved Bob and Winkers arse.
NTPs went to Koala, Taffy, Hubba and Sutho (well done)
Handicaps adjustments were as follows Joe from 13 to 12 and the in-form Biggsy from 22 to 21 the 2 losers on the day, Spoon went from 7 to 8 and B Mac 38 to 39.
