Steve Morse had the highlight shot of the afternoon when he aced the 128m second hole.

This was his first ever hole-in-one and closely follows his first eagle in the final of the Kevans Knockout. 

It is likely that this will be the last hole-in-one ever on the current Scone course layout, unless someone accomplishes the feat this week.

Well done Steve Morse.

The event was an interesting 18-hole ambrose 4BBB Stableford for Paul and Liz Smart’s trophy. 

Scott Lye and Red Palmer were the winners with 51 points, and runners up went to Paul Smart and Justin Smart with 50 points. 

The ball winners were: Steve Morse and Alan Wood, Phil McGuirk and Gordon Halliday 48, John Roe and Jack Tilse 47, Geoff Barton and Garry Taylor, Jim Hobbs and Matt Hobbs 46, Les Cottam and Mick Alsleben, Clayton Rogers and Derek Field all on 45 points. 

The hard luck stories of the day go to Charlie Manning and Phil McGuirk who both landed shots on the 2nd/11th at 0.30 metres and 0.89 metres respectively, to share the jackpot of one ball with Morse.

Glen Tarrant won the 8th/17th NTP at 2.37 metres.

On Thursday, September 7, the ladies played an 18-hole stableford for Sarah Howey’s Trophy.
