Eagles Nest

BY EDDIE SCHULZE

The weather scheduled itself perfectly for last Sunday's 3rd round of the Summer Cup.

the rain settled in at about 10:30am as the morning group had finished its rounds, and stopped at about 1:30pm, as the afternoon group was preparing to go out.

Winner on the day, with a great score of 22 points, was Alastair Brown, also getting nearest the pin on number 2 - so he really deserves his handicap break from 19 to 16 and that puts another four balls in his basket.

Second was Richard Clegg, handicap break 9 to 7 plus closest to the pin on No 4 (3 balls) with Brad Adams (1 ball) coming in third with 19 points on a count back from Peter Riley and Eddie Schulze and a handicap break of 8 to 7. Encouragement award (or NAGA to some) was awarded to Tizi Bonora (1 ball) on a count back from Wes Daniel and Ed Tripolone.

NTP on no 4 was Jenny Langley (1 ball).

After 3 rounds, Alastair has scooted to a 10-point lead over Eddie Schulze, with Larry Dyson a further 4 points back.

The next round will be played in the New Year with the 4th round teeing off on the January 4.

The mid-week 'Scrounger of the Year' playoff on December 4 went to Duane Burns, with Mick Thomas second and Graham Green third.

Duane got a unique double in that he was also awarded the scrounger with the most NAGAs for the year.
