Away Day at Stoke By Nayland- Results

Well folks what a weekend!
This was a Ryder Cup jolly organised by your very own Tour man Mr Dave Brown. What a guy, he sorted out a great venue and even arranged for Europe to stuff the Yanks on their own turf-splendid stuff.

We played 36 holes over 2 days with the Ryder Cup on the sunday night being the focus of our attentions albeit a certain dignified member of our society- yes your very own Capitano Mr Steve Corley was in double celebratory mood as he managed an ACE on the 10th.

Much to his bemusement-he didn`t think it was that good a shot- he slotted a 3 iron in from 195 yards on the 10th hole of The Constable course. It cost him a few quid, but hey ho who cares.


Kevin Tyler won the money overall with a sneaky win over John "Rocky" Searle. John Coyle & Jules won the nearest the pins. Below are a couple of snaps of the last hole-a real toughie! Kev Tyler managed to top it  about 20 feet only bettered by our beloved Captain who knocked it forward about 200mm.

OK folks the date for your diary and a chance to escape the clutches of the in laws!!

Then after the exquisite dinner there will be the customary presentation by your very own Mr T Johnson
well known on the national circus and comedy circuits. Should be a laugh- it was for most of you last year.

Expected cost of £40 for this golfing extravaganza.  Please let Jules know if you are able to make this very fun day as soon as possible, as we are expecting it to be a high turn out this year.

As per usual there will be an after event drink up at our usual haunt - The Horns at Datchworth.
