On Saturday, December 24 a good field enjoyed golf at Scone when they played an 18 Hole Stableford for the Scone RSL Group Trophy.
Fortunately the field was in before a storm threatened late in the day.
The best score of the day was by Mick Alsleben who had 40 points to win A Grade.
The other winners were B Grade Paul Smart who had 37 points to win on a countback from Brad Hockley, and newer member Tony Pringle had 39 points to win his first C Grade prize.
The NTP on the 2nd / 11th was won by Jeff Harrington with a shot to 2.54 metres, whilst on the 8th / 17th Alan Wood won the ball with 3.54 metres.
Ball winners were: Mick Alsleben 40, Tony Pringle 39, John Murray 38, Steve Morse, Paul Smart, Brad Hockley 37, George Campbell 36 and Jeff Harrington 35 on a countback.
Next Saturday, December 31 the event will be an 18 Hole Stableford with a “Mystery” 2 Ball in conjunction.
