Happy New Year from your Friendly Pro Shop Team
I hope you've all had a fantastic festive break and Santa brought you everything you wanted!! Welcome to our first edition of the Moray Pro Shop weekly newsletter 2016, bringing you up to date with all the latest news and gossip from within the walls of MGC.
We have had some poorer weather the last few days which has resulted in a few wet areas on the course, in particular the 7th & 8th fairways.
However, we have had far better weather than the majority of the UK, and in the last week the North East of Scotland in particular has taken a battering!!
With heavy and persistent rain, many rivers have flooded and this has brought devastation to many homes, businesses and golf courses!!
Here are a few photos from courses around the North East and as close as Garmouth & Kingston GC! It's fair to say we have been quite fortunate with the weather!!
Stotfield TrophyThe annual Stotfield trophy or string competition was again played for over the Old Course. We had a full field as usual which was great to see. The weather thankfully stayed pretty dry which was a relief especially for some who opted for bottle space rather than waterproofs in their golf bags. Luckily for them the right decision was made!!
In the individual event, country member
Gavin Fisher won with an impressive 65, 2 ahead of
Scott Little (jnr) and
Terry Scholefield on 67.
In the team event the scoring was again very impressive with
Mark Aspinall, Adrian Barksby and
Bill Gibson taking the honours with a fantastic better ball score of 56!
Well done to everyone who took part in the day!
