JUNE ACTIVITY
Glorious June is here, where? There has been a lot of activity in June starting with the Kevin Copper Trophy, this year contested in a more universally acceptable Greensomes format. Barry Granger and Alfie Puttock managed to hold off young guns Ross Markiewicz and Sam Sheppard by 43 points to 42. Jim Baker and Lenny Hopkinson, Captain and Vice Captain respectively returned 42 points but finished third on count back from the youngsters.
Next up was the Presidents Putter and this was won by recently rejoined David Butcher who carded a gross 70 which converted into Stableford points equates to 42. Congratulations must go to Chris Robson who shot 41 points to reduce his handicap to 1 although it was only good for 3rd spot. The runner-ups spot went to green keeper Carl McCreath who also scored 41 but beat young Robson on count back.
WSLO Rd. 2 was played in conditions more akin to Early Spring than Mid-summer, Chris Robson was again denied top spot in Division 1 despite carding a gross 70 the old campaigner Gerald Pearce also score a nett 69 to take the Division on count back. Graham King won Division 2 with a repeat of Saturday morning with a nett 68 beating another regular in the winner’s enclosure, Barry Granger who returned a nett 70. Carl McCreath’s handicap is “tumbling” and it fell again on Sunday with his fine nett 66 to wing Division 3 five shots clear of John “Butch C” Middleton.

LATEST RESULTS
Feltwell battled well in round #1 of the Barnard Trophy overcoming Ryston Park by 5 clear holes, next opponents in June are Mundesley Away.
The Brandon duo of Tony Carpenter and John Middleton combined nicely to accrue a combined stableford score 42 points to win the Better-Ball Stableford pairs, Bo Parker and Adrian Charles were 2 back on 40 points.
Steve Scott, part-time Administrator at Feltwell GC was in fine form winning the Hampshire Shield by 2 points, out-scoring Last year’s Vet’s Captain Barrie Pressling and Style Trophy winner David Leonard who both finished on 35 points respectively.
Bo Parker has been in good form of late and his 2 under par was good enough to win Division 1 of the recent Sunday Medal, it was close though he only saw off young Jack Sheward on count back. Barry Granger and Graham King, a couple of the more mature members finished 1st and 2nd in Division 2 on 71 & 72 respectively. The best Nett score was in Division 3 where window-fitter Mark Woods, younger brother of Ryan, scored a stupendous nett 64, 8 under par and saw his handicap drop from 28 to 25 plus another 1 for Standard of Play and Mark will enter the next competition on 24! Adam Bland at 6 under can be forgiven for thinking that it was good enough to take Division 3, sorry Adam but you couldn’t account for and even bigger bandit in the field.

There were no blemishes on his card in his round of 13 pars and five birdies and speaks volumes for his current commitment to his game.
In most cases nett 67 would have been good enough to win most medals but veteran golfers Gerald Pearce and Fred Fitzpatrick finished 2nd and 3rd respectively behind the young gun, although both had their handicaps reduced as a result of their scoring..

EGU GOLD MEDAL/WSLO/SCRATCH The May medal was the initial medal counting towards the aggregated WSLO/Scratch series; it was also combined with the EGU Gold Medal event that could result in the Feltwell winner winning an all-expenses paid trip to vie for the London Fuller’s Pride trophy at the world famous Bracken course in Woodhall Spa. They used to say that bandits come from the East but on this occasion he rose from the South-West, although a local resident now Jason Sheldrick originated from Isleham who have a tradition of sporting success in both cricket and football; now golf is added to their credence. Jason shot a superb nett 62 off his previous handicap of 23 to win the EGU Gold Medal, a case of Fullers London Pride, the chance to represent Feltwell at Woodhall Spa and take a commanding lead in the WSLO table. Christoper Robson continued on his match downward, in handicap terms by shaving 0.2 off his current 3, shooting the lowest gross, level par, of the day; oh to be young again!!

Medal – Saturday 10/05/2008 George Maidwell showed there is life in the old dog yet by romping to a nett 63 in the recent Saturday Medal. George’s 9 under par total was four shots better than the Market Gardener, Ray Peachey, who finished runner-up on 67 which any other day would have been good enough for the winners enclosure. Ray hits an almighty ball off the tee but his medium and short game are obviously improving based on the evidence of this score.

Golden Oldies Two of the senior members and in the higher handicap echelons stood at the top of the leader-board when the Frostbite trophy closed on Sunday 25th November. Keith Ginifer one of the stalwart veterans amassed 41 stableford points to take the title by a point from John Middleton beating “Mr Consistency” Lenny Hopkinson into 3rd place on count back. Maybe the Frostbite Trophy should be renamed the Global Warming Trophy as the weather for this event improves year on year, perhaps the scientists are right after all. Markiewicz won his third Div. 1 medal in as many months on Saturday when he shot a nett 68 off 9. Kevin has been up and down from 8 to 9 and back again over the last year and he has had his handicap cut again to 8 on the strength of his recent performance. Chris Robson is nearing the magical of 4 for the first time, his nett 70 off 5 saw another 0.1 shaved off his handicap to stand at an exact 4.7, Newmarket butcher John Brook, or snapper, to his friends, was again in the places with a respectable 71 off 10.

The high winds and threat of rain reduced the field but you still have to beat what is out there and Steve did it in style by finishing 3 in front of the field on 71. The soon-to-be veteran, Gerald Pearce finished runner-up on 74, with that man Markiewicz again in the frame finishing 3rd on 76.
