2015 BJS Insurance Top Gun Shootout Update

BJS Insurance Top Gun Update as of 5/9/15

 

What a difference a month has made to our fabulous Course with the greens becoming fast and the fairways drying out substantially. The extra work Dylan and Tom have put into the Greens lately is certainly paying dividends.

The next six weeks before the cut off day for the Top Gun Shootout will be vital to the makeup of the final nineteen (19).

Last update only 3 players had scored higher than last years minimum qualifying score of 36 points and the leader Tom Sorrell, was sitting on 39 points.

As of  the end of  yeterday, Saturday 5th September, we have 10 players equal to or higher than 36 points and the new leader, Geoff Maher is sitting on a very safe 41 points.  Our top lady entrant, Coral Gray, is on a comfortable 38 points.

There are 9 of the current top 19 who are below last years qualifying minimum having  scored between 33-35 points to date, and together with the 4 players on 36 points (including the reigning Top Gun), all may well be on shaky grounds if the improving scores continue as the weather and playing conditions do likewise.

The most exciting part of this competition is that it’s never too late to enter except after you hit that sweet game.   Remember if you’re a member of LGC (any category) and are coming down for a competition game, don’t forget to sign up for Top Gun before you play,  it’s only $15 and top prize for the Shootout Final is a $350 voucher.

Based on the current scores I would confidently say that at least 13 places in the Shootout Final are still up for grabs… so come on down and score one.
