GEORGE HEADS A 3 WAY TIE AT MOUNTAIN SHADOW.
The Olde Rogues had 7 groups at Mountain Shadow and found a course very much to their liking. It has a very god lay out with some very demanding holes – in particular the long par 5 14th hole. There are many holes which give you birdie opportunities and many where the player is happy to walk off with a 1 over par bogey!
We were joined today by Robby Anderson and 3 handicapper from Edinburgh. It was Robby`s first game with us and he probably set an Olde Rogues record with 4 consecutive birdies. Also back was Terry Drier. Terry has had some back issues recently but he played well and managed to get himself on the podium.
No player broke par but three, George Mueller, Keith Griffith and Billy Buchanan carded level par scores of 36 points with George leading the way on countback.
RESULTS:
1st Place George Mueller (18) – 36 c/b
2nd Place Keith Griffith (19) – 36 c/b
3rd Place Billy Buchanan (14) – 36
4th Place Terry Drier (15) – 34 c/b
5th Place Ted Senior (20) – 34
