Last Saturday (11th Feb) on a cold winters day 31 golfers made their way to the first outing of the year to the society’s most visited golf course, Esker Hills, and for good reason, a fantastic challenging course which was in great shape and complimented by the welcoming and friendly staff there. Our new Captain Chris Fahy showed little nerves as he hit a fine drive down the middle of the fairway to start the societies proceedings for 2017.
The overall winner on the day was decided on a countback, with Enda McNamara taking the trophy home after narrowly beating Stephen Stead. Both players scored a respectable 37 points, not bad given the very cold and blustery weather on the day.
Winners at Esker Hills are as follows: Overall Winner, Enda McNamara, High Handicap Section, Steve Stead. Low Handicap Section, 1st Vincent McMorrow, 2nd Niall Loftus. Ladies Section 1st Breda Travers, 2nd Sharron Morgan. Front Nine, Ber Hogan. Back Nine, Liam Loftus.
The standard scratches were as follows –
Mens (top 5) 36
Ladies (top 2) 26
