The month of November can be a wet, windy and pretty dismal affair. However this year we appear to have been very lucky with sunny mornings and blue sky afternoons.

Where has 2021 gone? It has been another strange year after the trials and tribulations of 2020. We have at least enjoyed more golfing days and the vagaries of the new handicapping system have tested us all to the full. We only have five more golf competitions left this year and, there are only 37 shopping days to Christmas!

A fine field of 78 players took to the fairways to enjoy a Texas Scramble competition. Originally called Captains Choice it rapidly grew in popularity in the 1950s in... yep Texas!

With only four points separating the top 10 teams it was always going to be that one shot that decided the winning team.
