The first competition of the month of June, Saturday 3, was a stroke event, the monthly medal and putting competition for Stanthorpe golfers. The day was sponsored by Andersens of Stanthorpe and thanks to Gary Kirby for putting on the prizes of the day. Being officially winter, the day turned out to be very mild and warm, so good playing conditions. The winners of the men’s and ladies events also qualify for the Medal of Medallist later in the year.
A good round from Mark Baker put him back in the winners after he returned a nett 69, best of the day. His round was very consistent, 44 for the front nine and back with 46 for the day. Runner up for the men went to Angelo Maugeri who put together a good round of nett 70. One mishit was very costly for his final result, but he was happy with his round after some ordinary scores of late.
Rounding out the men’s section, Ivan Juriss had the least putts, 25 for the round and Scott Constable and Brendon Barker both recorded 78, best gross for the day.
In the ladies event, Lyn Ludlow came out on top with a nett 73. Two consistent nine holes where 49 scored on each side. The strength of her round was her putting, 12 on the front nine and 14 on the back nine for 26 which was the best for the ladies. Runner up was Mei Bell with a score of nett 75.
Lisa Stuart had the best gross score for the ladies, 93 for the round.
Ladies pin shots won by Lorraine Evans at 12 and Lisa Stuart at 17. Again, no-takers at the third hole. In the run down, Lisa Stuart, Margie Locke and Filomena Silver featured in the run down.
Men’s pin shots went to Hamish Adam at 3, Brad Silver at 12 and Gary Kirby at 17. Pro-pins claimed by Terry Johnson (Allora) at 1/10, Danny Folkers at 6/14 and Jarrod Irwin at 9/18. The birdies nest at the par 5 thirteenth hole was shared, with Alan Kerr and Jasn Bacon being successful.
The men’s run down went to nett 72 with Greg Fraser, Jarrod Irwin and Terry Johnson each collecting a voucher.
Next Saturday’s event is a single stableford sponsored by club members, Keith Jones and Helen Jones. Time sheet for the day is on the board at the club.
