Last Wednesday morning we had the opportunity to play for a little while and with just three of us for the morning session, we decided to have a chance to get some practical experience in marking a singles game and some work on decision making when playing singles.

Good thing we got out for an early game as by the time it was time to return to the green after lunch, the rain had set in and we called it a day.

On Sunday there were no social games played due to continuing rain.

PROSERPINE GOLF: As only an odd number of people nominated for Saturday’s 4BBB stableford, Roger Vandenberg had to play ‘swinger’ in the group.

He and Darcy Milne won the competition with 45 points, on a count back from the pairing of Noelene Spurway and Mel Patullo, and Scott Lee and Roger again.

On 44 were Col Gilham and Geoff Fitzsimmons, followed by Larry Muller and Peta Thomas as well as Ken Granger and Jim Cochrane on 43.

These were followed by Trish McNeill and Sean Gower, Jack and Luke Paroz along with Dean Kercher and Penny Wardroper on 42.

Last in the rundown were Brian Allen and Chris Harris on 41.

The pin shots went to Scott Lee on two and 13, Danny York on nine, Mel Patullo on 10 and Gary Scotford 16.

The place getters were Lando Sloane 37, Wilf Herweg, Vic Feldman, Peter Krause and John Grosskreutz all on 36 and Sean Gower on 35, on a count back.

Unlucky for the second time in a row was Warren Deighton, who lost on the count back.

He also was one of a group to finish the last five holes in the rain.

The pin shots went to Peter Browning on two, Warren Deighton on nine, Troy Smith 13 and John Grosskreutz on 16.

John and Lewis Tuck were the only winners of the two-shot club.

The pin shots went to Tiina Randmae on five, Ann Gardel nine and Marlene Gray on 13.

This weekend’s competition is a single stableford for the MBW Trophy.

AIRLIE BEACH DARTS: This week we started off the round with the meeting between Aaron Paull and Nathan O‘Hara, both of whom were searching for their first win of the season.

It started off as a cagey affair as neither player wanted to go 4 and zero at such an early stage of the season.

However, Aaron ended up claiming his first win this year coming out on top winning 6-4.

Elsewhere we had last year’s champion Gene Birse continue his impressive start to the 2021 campaign with a comfortable win over Garry Robbie winning 6-0 and claiming a bonus point.

His rival for the top spot Jamie Woods followed suit beating Jason Rockstroh in similar fashion winning 6-0 and also claiming a bonus point.

Both men claimed joint top spot on the ladder with Gene slightly ahead on leg difference.

Those boys are closely followed by Seumas Rose in third spot who also claimed an impressive victory 6-1 over Dick O’Hara.

Results

A Paull 6-4 N O‘Hara

G Birse 6-0 G Robbie

S Rose 6-1 D O‘Hara

J Rockstroh 0-6 J Woods

J Maher 6-3 R Gallichan

R Coutts 6-4 A Peel
