6 February 2010 Another hole in one!
Today it was the turn of Jim Gourdie who holed his 10(!) iron at the 5th whilst playing in the Eclectic with John Bennett, Jimmy Robertson, and David L Smith. Accounts vary as to how the ball got there but that's friends for you! Suffice to say that John was even heard to declare that the only time he has written a '1' on a card it has been followed immediately by a zero!
30 January 2010 Hole in one
Honours fell to Scott Dalrymple at the 5th hole whilst playing in the Eclectic with Brian Grieve, Mark Thomson, and Jeremy Lloyd.
A less prestigious feat, but worth a mention nevertheless, was seen at the first where Glyn Richards, having spent some time in finding his tee shot, promptly holed his second.
30 January 2010 - Winter Eclectic No. 7
Full greens again but frost-bitten also and scoring was not easy. However after 7 rounds there is little change from the last report. Leading the scratch are Steve Meiklejohn 56, James White (played only three rounds) 57, and Grant McNab 58. The handicap event is being led by Ken Proctor (12)55, Steve M (0.75) 55.25, and Michael Rooney (3.75) 56.25
20 January 2010 And yippee again
15 full greens in play. Many more smiles!
18 January 2010 Yippee
Play to winter greens tiday. Ya beauty.
31 December 2009 Snow stopped play
Unprecedented scenes at Lundie have prevented play since the afternoon of the 17th. Any snowmelt has gven way to ice but there is no truth in the rumour that the British Olympic curling team are practicing on the 18th fairway. That said Luge hopefuls for Olympics 2014 and 2018 ARE making hay. With further snows daily golfers may have to wait another 2/3 weeks at best for any on-course action.
However the gloom and frustration felt by the frustrated many will not prevent Captain and Council from wishing all readers a happy and successful 2010.
18 December 2009 The Pro Shop
Despite the shocking weather(sadly interrupting weekend play), and as we reach the Christmas Holiday break, the exterior work to the Professional's Shop is only a couple of days behind schedule. On the plus side, we are ahead of the game inside so, hopefully, was shall be up and running by the end of February or thereby. Professional Ron can't wait!!
