There are only twelve (12) days left in which to score better than par to force your way into the Top 19 qualifying positions for the BJS Insurance Top Gun Shootout, which is to be held on Sunday 6th November.
A couple of old Top Gun hands Kev Castwood (37) and Andy Bassett (38) have finally come to the fore this week to squeeze their way into the final on current scores, which is now set at 37 points.
Nine players are precariously poised on 37 points, only seperated by countback with the minimum back nine score of 16 points.
With the forecast of better weather for this week, it’s not too late to get out and play your best Top Gun round to qualify.

Round two of the Men’s Club Championship has been completed and the top of the leader board in each Division, is hotting up. In windy conditions today, there was only one par round and that was achieved by one of our up and coming juniors, Oscar Harry with a nett 70 off the stick and 36 stableford points. Unfortunately for Oscar he couldn’t play in the first round so is left wondering “what might have been”.
The six top players in each Division will be playing next Saturday in a seeded round, so watch the booking sheet for your times. All other player who are still in the Championships are open to book their own times. The Championships are still wide open, so good luck next weekend.

Finally, the weather cleared and allowed the running of the final round of the Mark Edwards Thursday Championship. A final field of 53 players were chasing equal score leaders, Craig Hams and Paul Luck both on a two round total of 71 points with Craig sitting on the best second round of 37, making him the outright leader.
Another 42 players had an opportunity to snatch victory having a single round of 33 stableford points or better.
Outright leader Craig Hams rested on his laurels today (someone has to work) and could not play. Paul Luck tried to better his first two round scores but came in a little short. Best round of the day was 37 points by Steve Fisher but alas this was only backed up by a 27. Then out of the blue, the last card processed, came a 33 by John McLennan
33 seemed an average score for the day, in fact it got John a down the line ball in the daily competition, but when you add it to his exceptional first round score of 39 points, it made a best two round score of 72, and John took out the title of Thursday Champion for 2016 by one stroke from Craig Hams and Paul Luck.
Well done to John, and the rest of the field, after a couple of cancelled starts due to rain.
