Golfing Society hammer White Hart Colts 120 - 119

After last weeks defeat, the Golfing Society bounced back to winning ways with a crushing one pin victory over the visiting White Hart Colts.

In an easier than expected match, the Golfing Society were soon five pins down with the management crew of the Leprachaun (20) and Crabbers (14) just about keeping pace with their opponents.

It all changed however with the introduction of the Captain (16) and Miss first time out this season (22) who only scored two ducks between them to launch the Golfing Society into a two pin lead.

This seasons top scorer the Accountant (29) and fresh from a Black Forest gateaux Ned (19) were lucky to only lose one pin to see the Golfing Society record their second win of the season.

Next weeks match is an All-in cup tie against 4th division Oldberries at home next Thursday 11th Oct.
