2015 BJS Insurance Top Gun Shootout Update

11 October Update: BJS Insurance Top Gun Shootout.

Two weeks today until the final Shootout and Keith Godridge seems to have assured himself of a place in the final with a solid 38 points in the Monthly medal.

The Course continues to improve as does the weather so I am expecting the final Top 19  stableford point scorers has not been “set” as yet, so keep the rounds coming, and if you are still contemplating entering then get in and sign up at the front desk before next you play.  $15 to enter and an amazing $350 first prize voucher.

Oh well, maybe next round for me, if only I could stop firing blanks.  But I live in hope as some big names are teetering on the brink.

2015 BJS Insurance Top Gun Shootout Update

BJS Insurance Top Gun Update 3rd October 2015

Just 3 weeks today (Sunday 25th October) and the show down between the top 19 LGC “gunslingers” will be decided.  Qualifying ends on Thursday the 22nd of October so just over two weeks to decide if you want to take part in this classic Shootout final.

The Course is nearly as good as it gets and the fairways are again a delight to play off and run is back, with the greens faster and true.

Some great scores are being recorded, consistently by some members of both genders, but alas, some haven’t entered Top Gun as yet.  New names on the leader board with Rod Hopcraft making the biggest leap this week.

Unfortunately the “pop gun” is struggling, my cork is hanging by a thread, eight rounds left to qualify….I Can do it… I will be there.

2015 BJS Insurance Top Gun Shootout- Update

BJS Insurance Top Gun Update:

With a little over 4 weeks before the final and the Course drying, we are starting to see more big scores coming in.  Dylan Clark was the big mover this week improving his best Top Gun score by 9 points to equal leader on 41 points with Geoff Maher.

A number of other great scores were recorded since the last Update but unfortunately those players have not yet signed up.  It’s never too late so get in quick.

I might have been “pop gun” last year but I’m right in the firing line to drop out of this year’s final if I don’t improve on my 34 points. See you on the Course.
