Early good weather deteriorated from mid-day as the cold North Easterly wind picked up, the day ending like mid-winter, during the latest HHDGA Winter Alliance at Willow Valley on Tuesday 13th April.
The course was in very good condition, being unusually firm and dry for an Alliance event. However, the cold wind kept scoring low with only two pairs bettering level par.
The Pro-Am section was won by West End’s Darren Arber (scr) and David Stafford (2) with 35 points. Stafford scored the bulk of the points, coming in on 13 holes, including a gross and a net birdie. Tied for second were Bradley Hall’s Robert Booth (scr) and Andy Hare (4) and Bradley Park’s Tom Wild (scr) and Jack Pearcey (5) on 33 points, Pearcey scoring a nett eagle on the 2nd.
The Am-Am section was won in fine style by Andrew Williams (8) and Tristan Gurd (6) of Dewsbury with 39 points despite not scoring on the last hole. The pair had 7 nett birdies with a nett eagle to Williams on the 3rd, but Gurd scored on 13 holes.
Another Dewsbury pair, Jimmy Caine (3) and Edward Battye (2), were second with 37 points, again with a very unbalanced card as Battye scored on 13 holes. Willow Valley’s Darren Bentley (12) and Richard Asher (12) were third with 36 points.
The next event is the Page Trophy on Thursday 29th April at West End.
