BGS at Broome Park: Report:

Wednesday saw the latest BGS outing. A splendid breakfast in Lord Kitchener’s house, a welcome to our two first-timers Tony & Gary, a few card tricks from Carl, & we were ready for the beautiful Broome Park course in the best of our British summer.

The North Foreland four-ball seemed to be enjoying the sunny June so much that they were content to spend all day on the course, or at least that’s what it felt like to the St Augustine three-ball who found a shady seat to while away the hours watching the majestic 18th hole waiting for the rest to finish…

Last month’s champ, & current favourite for the prestigious ‘BGS Player of the Year’ trophy, Bob McDougall, surprised us all by only coming in 5th. (Thanks for giving us all a chance to win this month Bob! Cutting Bob a shot surely did the trick there). 2nd & 3rd place had to be separated by count-back on the final 6 holes… with Pat Dawkins just pipping Andy Miller. Leaving first place to yours truly, with 37pts – maybe that’s payback for all the organising…??? (This is probably a good time to mention that we’re looking to increase the ‘organising team’ for next season… let me know if you’re up for it!!)

It was a good day for all but especially Andy Miller & myself as we shared all the nearest-the-pins taking two each… 
July’s outing is at the popular Redlibbets Golf Course on Wednesday 13th…
