Proserpine Veteran’s Golf

Another great day hosting the Whitsunday Group.  It was a beautiful day for golf and there were 48 players out on the course representing Proserpine, Home Hill, Bowen, and Collinsville.  

Proserpine did very well, taking out the major prizes for both the men and women with some excellent scores.  

Jenny Hounsell won the ladies with a score of 39, and Paula McQuat was runner up with 37.

Other Proserpine ladies in the rundown were Tessa Aitken (36), Mandy Patterson (35 c/b), Robyn Whitham (35), Jacqui Wall (35), Jan Shuwalow (34 c/b), and Elspeth Scotford (32).  

The men’s winner was Gerald Lovell (40 c/b) and runner up was Steve Mitchell (40). In the rundown were Nick Apruzzese (37 c/b), Geoff Harrison (37), Warren Deighton (35), Vic Feldman (34), Garry Scotford (33 c/b), Peter Fox (31 c/b), and Wilf Herweg (31).  

Nearest the pins for Proserpine were Jenny Hounsell, holes 13 and 18, Jacqui Wall, holes 13 and 18, too, and Geoff Harrison on the 18th.  

Next week will be Proserpine Veteran’s Golf’s October Monthly Medal.
