Congratulations to Shane Pynegar who broke 80 for the first time on 16th June 26. Tom Hunsdale played with Shane and saw him turn potential disaster into success on the 17th.
He took one club too many and hit his tee shot long into the bush.
He took a penalty, chipped up and sank the putt for an awesome 4!! Eventually going on to par the last and shoot an excellent 79.
Remember, it's never over until it's over!!!
Great focus and determination.
New target, 75???!!!
Well done Shane
