Proserpine Vets travelled to Collinsville last week and returned with some impressive results, particularly among the ladies, who claimed four of the top seven placings.
Leading the way was Robyn Whitham, who produced a brilliant 42 points to win the event. The victory follows on from her success at Home Hill last month, making her something of an “away” specialist. Runner-up was Karen Dwyer from Bowen on 37 points, while Proserpine’s own Tessa Aitken (36), Elspeth Scotford (35) and Tiina Randmae (32) also featured prominently in the rundown.
In the men’s competition, Home Hill’s Barry Duchnicz topped the field with 36 points, just edging out Bowen’s Les Gordon on countback. Proserpine players again held their own, with Gerald Lovell and John Strelec both carding 35 points to finish inside the top six, and Louis Neethling close behind on 33.
Pin shots were shared around on the day, with Leanne Alexander taking the ladies’ prize, while Colin Hounsell and John Strelec secured the men’s.
As always, the Collinsville volunteers added to the occasion with their marvellous hospitality and catering, which was a highlight for all who attended. The strong turnout and friendly atmosphere ensured another enjoyable outing for the Whitsunday veterans’ golfing community.
