Up for grabs was the TNCMC Trophy <\/p>\n
As always at this time of year, the course was in excellent condition, with superb fairways and greens. The weather also played its part, with temperatures in the mid 20s creating near perfect golfing conditions. <\/p>\n
The CGS boys arrived in good time (few laggers), proudly donning their blue Galvin Green shirts\u2026 well, most of us did! A few members once again struggled with the dress code, but thankfully, their generous donations to the Captain\u2019s Charity meant all was forgiven! <\/p>\n
After breakfast, coffee and plenty of banter, we headed to the practice area to sharpen our skills before taking on the course.<\/p>\n
Menzies Welcombe provided its usual test, with excellent par 3s and challenging par 4s. The greens were in great condition and running at a fair pace. With the course busy, the round took around five hours, but the excellent weather and company made it an enjoyable day.<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n
After the golf, we returned to the 19th for a few refreshments, followed by dinner, dessert and, of course, the all important results! <\/p>\n
