Maxitours at Classy Conwy sponsored by Jon Gallagher and Galvin Green
A stunning day greeted over 100 Maxitours golfers who travelled down the A55 today.
Spring was most definitely in the air and the Masters is just over a month away.
It’s my favourite time of the year.
There was a cool breeze for the early starters this morning but by the time the last group finished this evening there was barely a breath of wind and conditions were idyllic.
‘Loved it!’ Beamed Mark Pretty
‘So great to get some run out there!’ Reported Steve Aspinall.
Munro Donald was at it again. In Portugal he lost his mizuno 6 iron head cover among other things. He had a memorable double when he lost the very same headcover today. He also lost his mat.
Shane Lowry showed us last night why golf is the toughest game. We all thought he had nerves of steel when he secured the Ryder Cup last Autumn with a classy 12 foot putt. Last night he finally showed us he was human after blowing a three shot lead on the last three holes.
Scoring really improved with the weather late in the day and John Lee, Paul Woods, Keith White and Paul Barton who teed off at midday were delighted to take the lead with 85 points.
This was bettered with a very strong back nine of 46 points by Norrie Erwin, Roger Percival., Jim Clarke and Graham Jackson.
Paul Price has played nearly every event for the last five years and I think this may be his first ever victory. His Wychwood Park team had a superb 87 points and Paul was the main man picking up five shots on his own. Excellent.
Thank you for your 100% attendance today and support of the caterers. Superb.
Yours in golf, Tim
