Ash's Days Out
2021 : 3rd Away day : Cranham Golf Course on Weds 23rd June
20 players made the short trip to Cranham for the Seniors June awayday. It was a beautiful, bright day and 19 players were waiting at the 1st tee wondering where the organiser was. Lastminute.Ash just made it in time to pay the fees and we were ready to go.
The course was short, only 4960 yds off yellows, and with plenty of open spaces to really open your shoulders, so high scores were expected. Cranham does not have England Golf slope rating so we played off world handicaps which probably favoured the low handicappers.
The course was well manicured with some interesting holes, really good fairways and slick, smooth greens.
The scoring was quite average with just two players over 36pts. Dave Cormack took 1st prize with a score of 38pts b9 17pts b6 11pts from Eddie Cook 38pts b9 17pts b6 10pts. 3rd was also hotly contested between Robbo and Alan Appleby both on 35pts and b9 of 17pts. Robbo edged it with a b6 of 13pts over Allan's b6 of 12 pts
Nearest to pin on the 11th was Robbo and 18th was Ash.
The general opinion was that it was a nice course and we should play it again.
