Tayside Autumn IX

Raymond's match report from yesterday's return to Drumoig for our 9th Tayside Autumn outing: "A blustery day on a testing course. However you all responded with good scoring. The individual scores had 2 with 33 points, 2 with 35, 1 with 36 and the winner John Meaden with 37 . Well done John Team scores - there was a clear victory for the team of Ian Dring and John Meaden with 72 points, a good 6 points from the runner ups Nigel Meany and Les Gray. Windy conditions made the nearest the pins shots a bit difficult but both greens were hit in one. The nearest the pin on the 2nd hole was won by Ray Orr and on the 14th by Ian Dring The longest drive on the 9th was won by Harry Salter - a splendid drive of around 280 yards splitting the fairway ( risking the waters on either side) The longest drive for the veterans on this hole was won by Ray Orr with a much more modest effort. Full results for the day are attached. The meal afterwards was good golfers fare and the staff were friendly. A fair venue for a golf outing at a reasonable price. All in all a Good Day Out and Congratulations again to the worthy winner - John Meaden" Now the photos, firstly Ian's, starting with the view from the iconic 9th tee:

Les had travelled down in Nigel's car with Ian, but Les had forgotten to bring a mask so Nigel gave him this one to use:

The legend says "No Scotland No Party" - not sure any of us understood what it meant. To finish, Raymond presents John with his prizes:
