HALIFAX  HUDDERSFIELD & DISTRICT GOLF ALLIANCE

Crow Nest Park on Thursday 15 September 2011

 

The first Alliance of this season was held in perfect golfing weather, warm sunshine and a very light breeze, on a course in near perfect condition. The Crow Nest Park course was in excellent condition and the winter alliance preferred lies avoided the debris left by the gales of the previous few days. The greens were as fast and true as usual with the pins in some very tricky positions requiring thoughtful positioning of approach shots if three putting was to be avoided.

 

Early leaders of the Pro-Am were the new lightweight Rob Booth partnered by Andy Hare (3), Bradley Hall, with what seemed in insurmountable 43 points which included 7 gross birdies. This score was just surpassed by late starters Rob Stansfield and Luke Pilkington (4), Crosland Heath, thanks to gross eagle by Luke on the 288 yard 7th hole.

 

Equalling the Pro-Am winning score of 44 points were home club members Nick Day (7) and ex-pro Chris Mowl (1) ahead of 3 pairs on 42 points. Second place went to Mick Appleyard (6) and Steve Sandie (5), Bradley Hall. Highlights of the winning pair’s round were a net eagle on the stroke 1 412 yard 2nd hole by Nick and a gross eagle on the 514 yard last hole by Chris. A gross eagle was also scored by Mick Appleyard at the 2nd hole the second time round. Equal third were Nick Hirst (10) and Dave Knapton (10), Outlane and Richard Wimpenny (15) and Simon Whitham (17), Crosland Heath.

 

Trevor Williams was welcomed as the president of the alliance for the 2011/2012 season and it was good to see Jim Crompton back in action again
