Round 3 Highland's 5th Oct

We came, we saw, we conquered...well some of us did anyway! A terrific days golf was enjoyed way out of town at Highland's. In a beautiful valley setting, it really is a picturesque course, but it was extremely hot out there. Many thanks to Derek for looking after us so well & for the prizes he so kindly donated. 27 took part & sadly yet again we had 1 no show, even after broadcasting to all to let us know if you can't take part.
The course was in excellent shape, great fairways & quick, true greens. Some of us felt the stroke index was a bit out on a couple of holes, but as they'd be worked out from the back tees, perhaps that would explain things.
After receiving some tutelage on the run up to the tournament, Malcolm has come good at just the right time carding a very commendable 68. Hot on his heels with net 69 was Phyllis, well done both. Craig & Kieran both 70, & Guy coming very close yet again with 71.
Nearest the pins were Scott on hole 7 & Malcolm (he did have a good day) on 17.
Unfortunately we had to DQ some cards for being marked incorrectly. Yet again, I'd suggest the player & the marker check at the turn & then again at the end, if it doesn't tally up go through it hole by hole, then sign & submit. Steve has been reinstated after Jack phoned to clarify the situation.
Frank has now completed his 3 cards after having gone round with Richie & Jeff Lincoln, great to see both of them out with us again.
A special thank you to Gary B & Soo for their very kind hospitality,...& tasty cooking! It was lovely sitting in their tropical garden enjoying their company & Leo is a big softie (honest) Grrr!
