In the nearest the pins, sharp shooting was once again the order and for the second time in the past fortnight, the Idlerite Tyrepower jackpot on the 1st hole was won with Tim Burke hitting his tee shot to 45cm of the pin.
He claimed the four ball jackpot.
On the Griffins Leading Edge, 4th hole, Col Barker hit his tee shot to within 131cm of the pin.
Veteran Garry Phillips at 533cm proved too good on the Dirt Doctor Landscaping 6th hole. On the back nine holes, Michael Mitchelsen posted an easy birdie after his tee shot finished an agonisingly close 25cm from a hole-in-one.
On the difficult Westlime sponsored 15th, Andrew Pigram received two balls after a great tee shot to 400cm from the hole.
On the best-in-two-shots final holes of each nine, Ian Phipps dominated on the Parkes Ready Mixed Concrete 9th hole when he hit a glorious wedge to just 445cm.
On the Parkes Heavy Mechanical Repairs 18th hole, Wayne Parker fired his 9-iron second shot to within 388cm of the cup as both players claimed two balls each.
