Some scores were almost unbelievable, with the young guns standing up.
Winner of the day, with a massive 49 stableford points and losing 14 shots off his handicap, was Nick 'The Nephew' Strudwick.
In 2nd spot with another great score of 44 points was Simon 'Junior' Hogan followed by Dale 'Koala' Stait on a countback from Matt 'card swipe' Wright, both on 42 points and losing a shot each.
Nearest the pins for the women were Lyn 'Purple' Davison on the 4th and Chris 'Pizza Stait on the 11th.
In the men's, the sharp shooter two weeks in a row, on the first, much to the delight from Bubba Rea, was Phill Smith who showed a different way of getting on the green for one.
Ian 'Silverside' Phipps cooked up the 4th and the sixth, and Rob 'Yoyo' Hey on the 11th.
In the raffle, I think this is the only thing Brian 'Choco' Hogan can win, with runners up going to Peter '3 putt' Picker, Nim Dzuiba and Rob Hey.
