The Bill Garside unused putter which was donated by Outlane's professional after his 20 years service to the club in 1962 to be used as a major prize is a beautifully decorated piece of equipment that nobody is allowed to play with even if you win it.
The winner gets his name on a small disc which is on the encased trophy for the designed putter and this years name will be Peter Boakes who led from the front in his early start and nobody could get within 3 shots of his 62 nett round as his near perfect round was helped with a chip in on the 14th hole. The only blemish he had was on the 18th where a 1 over par didn't deny him the win and the the old saying of keep a 6 off your card which he just failed to do.
In second place was John Lawton with a gross 70 (1 under par)(65 nett) and another nett 65 from Patrick O'Flynn who claimed third after his back nine score did not quite match their equal scores.Gavin Hirst was another early starter and a 66 nett was also helped with 2 twos in his round whilst Paul Walker came in with a 67 nett which also included a two and the interesting facts was that 3 of the top 4 players managed a two to help their scores.
The standard scratch for the day was 69 (2 under par ) on a course which was in fine condition with superb fairways and excellent greens.
Leading scores:
1. Peter Boakes - 78 gross -(16) = 62 nett
2. John Lawton - 70 gross - (5) = 65 nett
3. Patrick O'Flynn - 78 gross -(13) = 65 nett
4. Gavin Hirst - 75 gross -(9) = 66 nett
5. Paul Walker - 75 gross - (8) = 67 nett
