This weekend 64 of our Tour members made the journey down to Breadsall Priory near Derby. The resort is great, two good courses and a lovely hotel. We played the Moorland course on the Sunday, which was great, in good condition and dry, considering all the rain of late, sadly the 18th hole was too wet saying that, so we played the first hole twice for our competition. Everyone seemed to enjoy their first day, and particularly the night, we had a lovely meal with ample beers before and after.
Monday was a little disappointing as the Priory course, being clay based, was still really wet, so only 14 holes were open and Buggys were banned, for safety reasons, but to be honest, they would have made a real mess too if allowed out. Unfortunately that spoilt the day for the ones who needed a buggy to play, they decided to play the Moorland again, but obviously ruined their Competition. We did play though, we played the first 14 holes and then the first 4 holes again for our Competition.
We had some fantastic scoring on both days, particularly from the winning pair, who, if they come next year, will be severely dropped as their handicaps are clearly generous shall we say!!
