This, the first disc golf tourney of the year attracted 28 players, including a number of tyros taking advantage of the leaf-less hazards. At first it looked as though we might have some surprises - leading players like Derek, Sam, and Simon Luard failed to make the lead group after the first round over the Old Course. Sean led the field with a fine 57, three ahead of Conor, Charlie and to everyone's amazement, yours truely. However, the natural order soon re-established itself, and the more testing New Course proves that quality counts, Derek returning with 56 and Simon with 57; Charlie and I finding the rarified air in the lead group too difficult scoring 72 and 71 respectively. [The Greyhound send their best regards and many thanks to everyone for single-handedly ensuring that their February receipts will break all records, and to Sam, in particular, for his self-less contribution, especially the singing.] A windy Sunday ensured that course records would be under no threat, Derek consolidated his position with 61, Simon nipped in front of Sean with a 63, and Conor overhauled Toy to take fourth also with 63. The final nine, essentially played backwards around the central part of course, left Derek the winner on 214, Sean second on 221, Simon on 224, Conor on 225 and Toy on 230. Final scores Derek Robins 179 + 35 Sean Young 184 + 37 Simon Luard 182 + 42 Conor Davies 188 + 37 Andy Lucey 192 + 38 Sam Neilson 195 Richard Sampson 196 Charlie Mead, Robin Scott 198 Bud Tilton 202 Neal Pickett, Toby Green 209 Steve Parker 220 Simon Ailes 223 Spencer Worth, Gavin Ailes 225 Ruth Lissaman, Dan Massey 229 Helen Myers 234 Ali Locke 237 Robin Ailes 244 Paul Knutton, Billy Ault 252 Sam Massey 270 Mark Hunter 229 Also played: Guy Luard (66 and 76); Daniel Luton (87 and 87); Oliver Luton (51, 53 and 49 over nine holes). Next tournament at Whitcombe: British Open, July 18th and 19th. There will be some Open Weekends in June and July where players are welcome to come and spend a weekend helping to get the course improved for the Open in return for time to play. More details later, but if you want to register your interest for these Open Weekends, do let me know.
