The President's Putter

The 2014 President's Putter competition will take place at Minchinhampton Golf Club, and the date is expected to be Tuesday 29th July.

The President’s Putter in 2013 took place at Minchinhampton on Tuesday 16th July. Unfortunately there were only seven ‘true’ golfers taking part as several fell by the wayside. The heat took its toll and, with plenty of water, we all managed to complete the round. After the game and a refreshing shower we all had drinks and an excellent meal, where we were joined by David Holborow, who read out the results, and President Nigel Gilhead, who presented the prizes.

The results were:

3rd place on countback               Philip Selwood

2nd place                                 John Price

1st place                                  Nigel Walker

The booby prize was awarded to Mike Hughes, and ‘nearest the pin’ was won by Huw Rees as he was the only player to land on the green.

Total Scores:

Nigel Walker - 32

John Price - 30

Philip Selwood & Allan Collins - 29

Huw Rees - 28

Doug Hughes & Mike Hughes - 24

All in all, a very enjoyable day and our thanks go to Philip Selwood for making the arrangements with the Golf Club.
