2020 Results

14 Smergs turned up on a beautiful morning all sporting Christmas attire with Steve Urwin decorating his buggy with twin panels of a sleigh with flashing lights.   Gazza made a rare appearance but only for coffee.

NTP on 11 in 2 won by the TD.
NTP's on 15, 16 and 17 won by Neil, Alan O'D and a tie between Nick and Ken for the 17th.  Neil's shot just missed going in and he had a gimme birdie.
Long Drive was won by Declan who outdrove Neil by 10 metres.  Neil's shot was a cracker so he was most disappointed!
The 2BWB won by a margin of 4 was David Thornton and TD with 15 points. The worst of the worst were 2 teams headed by Alan O'D who managed 7 points.  No loss of shots for this novelty event with just 2 balls to each wnner.
David T wins the day and loses a shot as normal.
Team 3 paid for coffee
