Time for the Turkey Trot competition and it was deja vu yesterday morning waking up to heavy rain with a forecast of rain continuing for most of the morning together with winds of 40 miles per hour. Needless to say, there were very few ladies keen for a game of golf and in view of the low numbers I decided to cancel the competition. A few hardy souls went out for a bounce game and surprise, surprise the weather improved as the morning went on albeit it was pretty windy.
The Wee Course ladies also abandoned their competition and headed to the clubhouse for a coffee and a chat!
The Turkey Trot will be run next Friday 4th November on Rosemount in conjunction with the first round of the Winter League. As the Winter League is a 12-hole competition, on this occasion the Turkey Trot Stableford will be over 12-holes too. Only holes 1-12 to be played with each player getting nett 2 points for holes 13-18.
The online booking has been amended and you only need to sign up once to enter both competitions and complete one scorecard. The Turkey Trot has an entry fee of £2 per player. Should you wish to opt out please advise the starter before your round. Please note however that this will prevent you from winning the Turkey Trot competition (vouchers to be presented at the Christmas lunch), however you can play to win the prize of a golf ball (presented to the winners of Division 1 and Division 2/3 combined) in the Winter League competition.
Please remember to bring your fairway mat with you. Fingers crossed for better weather next week!
