It was a popular win as he finished two shots of our June Medalist in Steve Usher. The Modest Onefinishing his round with 35 points and the A grade runner’s up trophy
Nathan also won the A grade Nearest the Pin ball on the par three 3rd and the nearest second shot on the 13th and should have added the First Tea voucher on the 15th to his collection but failed to register his shot on the NTP card thinking it was a ladies’ NTP hole. Alas the voucher was gratefully accepted by Steve Usher.
Frank Broucek cruised to victory in B Grade with 36 points, four shots clear of Alan Curnow and Colin Rangitonga. Alan got the better of the countback with his 32 points, a score which would have been a lot better but for a particularly frosty relationship with his putter late in the round.
