Medallists show their mettle

By DENNIS FULLER

LAST Saturday at Emerald Golf Club all players who had won a monthly medal during the year competed to be Medallist of Medallists.
The winner gets to compete in the VGL comp of the same name and the club champion, Ryan Aitken, competes against all other club champions.
When the counting had been done it was Mark Starick (10) who held sway over the other pretenders when his net 71 was good enough to get him the major gong.
The day was also the November VGL medal competition.
Steve Town (16) saw the sun shine so he did the same to win the medal with a very solid nett 66.
This got Town the right to stand atop the B Grade mound.
Kameron Geeves (14) enjoyed his round of 70 to win A Grade.
Not content with this, this greedy golfer was also nearest the pin on the fourth, the thirteenth and he even pocketed the pro pin pennies on the 18th.
In C Grade it was Peter Glasscock (25) who dominated again to win with 70.
Peter Jones had 70, and Ken Hill and Leigh Morison both had 71.
Mike Litchfield got into the act by being nearest the pin on the seventh and Wayne Degering showed how it should be done from a long distance on the 12th.
The ladies’ competition saw a complete domination by Brodie Reynolds who blitzed the field by miles from a distant Rosalie Martin.
On Wednesday at the Omni potently Fiddly Golf (OFG) using OFG handicaps, Leigh Piggott (36) broke the ice for his first win over a big field of willing but lagging floggers.
He had 44 points to win from Moss Fuller (21) on 43 followed by a gaggle of golfers including John Piggott (21), Graeme Fergus (23) and Allan Ecclestone (20) all on 42.
