THERE were early signs of summer with a very warm Monday 2 November for the Gloucester Veteran Golfers, a day in which Debbie Sate finished in front, albeit narrowly so.
The Veteran Golfers were playing on the Monday to allow for celebrations and other hijinks associated with the Melbourne Cup on their normal Tuesday.
The event itself was an Individual Stableford and the winner on a count back from the field was Debbie Sate 39. Balls were won by Anne Wand 39, Chris Steele 38, Peter Sate 36, and Paul Griffiths 35.
The Nearest-to-the-Pin trophy at the 4th and 13th holes was won by Anne Wand. Carolyn Davies and Chris Steele had their name on the NTP card at the 6th and 15th greens.
The Gloucester Veteran Golfers returned to their normal Tuesday on 10 November for an Individual v Par event sponsored by Ele Fraser.
Next Tuesday, 17 November, it is a Four Ball Multiplier – a novelty event designed to test the best of relationships.
