In windy conditions, Lyn played consistent golf and repeated her starting score of 84 to win convincingly.
Cheryl Clydsdale was runner up after a tussle with Sue Watts and Ann Cameron.
Narelle Rutter finished with her best round of the championships, 98, and was delighted to win division 2 by nine shots, especially as her mother Gwen Osborn had the first name engraved on the cup in 1978.
The score of 73 nett meant Narelle was also the daily runner up.
Noreen Marshall maintained her lead to win Division 3 with Steph McGuirk the runner up.
Judy Carmody had a memorable day with her best score in a while to win the Dee and Barry Deitz Trophy with 67 nett.
This also resulted in her being runner up in Division 2, and more impressively, winner of the nett for the Jean Byrnes Salver, (from starting handicap), and winner of the Doris Ham Veterans Trophy, (daily aggregate nett scores).
Ann Cameron was one shot behind in both nett events.
Ball winners for the daily event were Trish Dunnill 74, Julie Leckie 75, Lyn Banks 75, June Jukes 75 and Ann Cameron 79.
The NTPs on the 2nd/11th were won by Division 1, Cheryl Clydsdale and Division 2, Narelle Rutter.
The championships concluded with a presentation of flowers and trophies to the winners, and afternoon tea for all.
Last Saturday a lovely day for golf was enjoyed by competitors in the Scone Open Hunter Valley Printing mixed event.
The scratch winners were Sue Watts and Justin Smart who had an excellent par round to have 36 scratch stableford points.
Lyn and Ross Banks, with 44 points, won the stableford section on a countback from Cheryl and Neil Clydsdale, who were amongst the ball winners.
Sue managed to win both NTPs and she and Justin a ball also for their 43 points.
Today, the ladies will start the Marg Marshall 4BBB knockout and play an individual stableford for those not involved.
Next week on Thursday October 2, the last of the Monthly Medal and putting rounds will be held.
This Sunday, September 28 come along for a social game in the charity 4 person 9 Hole Ambrose for golfers and non-golfers.
It is a 10.30am for 11am shotgun start supporting the worthy cause, Hunter Prostate Cancer Alliance.
