Final Field for BJS Insurance Top Gun Shootout.

November 9, 2017Comments Off on Final Field for BJS Insurance Top Gun Shootout.Latest News

Today (Thursday 9/11/2017) was the final day of qualifying for the BJS Insurance Top Gun Shootout.  President Peter Waters made par today and with 36 points, pushed his way into the Shootout, relegating Matt Bowey down to 1st Reserve.

The Shootout starts at 09.00 am sharp on Sunday  morning, th12th Nov  and all finalist will need to check in by 08.30 am.  You will also need to bring 3 balls each clearly marked with your ranking number as listed below (ie from 1-19).  Bring plenty of water.

First 9 holes usually takes about 3-3.5 hrs, then a break for a BBQ lunch before the final 9.

A Calcutta Auction was run today by Auctioneer Rohan Mc Crae and plenty of spiritied bidding made Chris Leaver the best backed favourite to take out the title of Top Gun, edging out Jon Smith and Doug Clemann.  I guess Sunday will sort the field out.  Good luck to all 19 Shootout finalists.

Visitors, friends and spectators most welcome.
