Golfing Society shot down by Lone Rangers

The Golfing Society were four points from safety with two games in hand when they met the high flying Lone Rangers, who are pressing for second place in the league.

At the end of the night it was the same old story for the struggling home side with two many ducks and not enough high scores to trouble their visitors.

With Gibbo and the Builder both unavailable for the match, the home side kicked off with the Capt (27) scoring a duck, and Miss Unbelievable (35) starting with a fourteen spare, to give the Golfing Society a six pin lead against Ponting & Curtis.

Things didn't start well for Crabbers (22) who suffered a blow to the head prior to the match, whilst he was "enjoying" a heady cocktail of lime and soda. Together with Ned (23) the pairing lost nine pins to the Longman father and son pair, and the Golfing Society were now three pins down in the match.

Unfortunately for the Golfing Society, their opponents were on top form, and the Leprachaun (22) and the Accountant (24) lost nineteen pins to Cumming and Ponting (Jnr) and the home side were beaten by twenty two pins.

Next week there are two away matches to Stone CC 8pm start Wednesday, and Wot-u-Wots 7.30pm start Friday.

Odds & Ends crush poor Golfing Society 156 - 138

The Golfing Society's poor run of form continued with an eighteen pin defeat at the hands of the Odds & Ends at the Catholic club on Tuesday evening.

With Gibbo and Miss Miss missing, it fell upon the Capt (17) and Crabbers (23) to get the evening off to a good start, but unfortunately they dropped nineteen pins which the following pairings for the Golfing Society were unable to make up.

Ned (15) and the Leprachaun (24) dropped a further six pins and the match was effectively all over before the final pair were even on.

Top scoring for the Golfing Society was the Accountant (31) and along with the Builder (28) pulled back seven pins, but the match was lost and the Golfing Society are in deep trouble at the wrong end of the league table.

Next weeks match is a bottom of the table clash with the Skuttlers, home at the Rugby Club where the Golfing Society will be looking for that vital home win which will re-ignite their season.

Golfing Society fall short against Inlaws 148 - 160

The Golfing Society came up short against the Inlaws by twelve pins to leave themselves firmly in the relegation mire.

Gibbo (12) and Miss Understood (25) dropped thirteen pins, to leave the Golfing Society with a mountain to climb.

Last weeks top scorer Crabbers (33) did not disappont, and along with the Leprachaun (17) clawed back four valuable pins to give the Golfing Society a sniff of victory.

This was quickly snuffed out however, as Ned (28) and the Builder (33) despite being the home side's top pairing for the evening, dropped three pins and the match was lost.

Next league match is Tuesday 12th March at the Catholic club versus Odds & Ends.
