The 3rd round of the Metro Bakery and Cafe sponsored Silver Salver was held at the Blue lake Golf ClubWednesday.<\/p>\n
One could say the weather of cold, wet and windy was firstly not conducive to good scores being recorded but add a par competition and it was not every golfers way to spend a day on the fairways Numbers were down and kudos to the 17 that fronted up especially the winner in Division1, Dianne Perryman (pictured) off a 20 handicap signing for 2-down, went out in style paring the 1st and 3rd with handicap plusses on the 6th and 7th turning to the 10th 3-up.<\/p>\n
The back nine proved to be a lot harder to score having 5-down. Trudy Herbert off 28 signed for 5-down after having that on the front-nine that included 2-plusses and a consistent back nine of square and helped her win a countback with Sue Agars also 5-down.<\/p>\n
The struggles were very obvious in Division 2 with most finding scoring very hard and it was Carol Melhuish coming home with 6-down to collect the first prize voucher. The front nine was the most difficult for Melhuish turning 6-down but was able to add three plusses on the back- nine for all square score.<\/p>\n
Lesley McPherson would probably like to forget her day, not faring well with 12-down but at least she was out there doing it and collected a voucher for her tenacity.<\/p>\n
Most the special event prizes went to Josie Ashby for nearest to the pin on the 16th after a birdie resulting from a chip-in ferret and winning the pro-shot on the 5th. Another to have chip-in ferret were Bev Pascoe 8th and 15th<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
