Wednesday Competition

05/11/15:  North Adelaide

9 starters on a Thursday to avoid forecast bad weather (that didn't eventuate), featuring the annual guest appearance/donation by Ross.    Misty drizzle for a few minutes, but otherwise pretty good conditions.

Front nine:      Crathern (20) from Whicker & Methofer (17)
Back nine:      Pring (19) from Whicker (18)
Overall:          Crathern (36) from Pring & Whicker (35), Methofer (32)

Birdies:
Whicker:   Par 3 sixth

Four point holes:
Pring:        Par 4 tenth and Par 4 fourteenth
Methofer:  Par 3 sixth

Eclectic holes:
Crathern:   ninth (4)
Pring:         first (4) and fourteenth (4)

Highlights:   
(i)   Damien's wallet containing several hundred dollars was found next to the eighteenth green.   Obviously some of his winnings from recent EET competitions.
(ii)  Noel Wellman played Glenelg on Tuesday.   His approach to the eighteenth green continued the EET tradition of landing on the clubhouse roof (the room used that day for a Melbourne Cup luncheon).   A beautiful swing, excellent contact, superb trajectory, just slightly to the right (by 80 metres or so).   Bronte advises that Geoff McCaw received a standing ovation from the Glenelg members for a similar shot some years ago.
