84 Midland Vets enjoyed very pleasant conditions today for the re-arranged Spring Meeting at Auchterarder. There were only a few very light showers, and those out later in the day managed to play round with no rain at all! We all had the added bonus of a free viewing of the Johnnie Walker pros playing the 16th hole on the PGA Centenary Course. We might even feature on the TV?!
The competition was Reduction Only with a CSS of 73 - for those who played well enough to merit a reduction in their handicap (Margaret T, Heather, Fiona and Margaret H) - well done!

Please also note that a sand wedge was lost during the day, probably at the 12th green. If anyone has picked it up meaning to hand it in, and has mistakenly taken it home, please contact Jaci Connally on 01337 830085. It is a Callaway X20 Sand Wedge. Thank you.
