Carton House Strokeplay Championship

The Society enjoyed a wonderful day at Carton House, with both the weather and golfing conditions contributing to a successful outing.  Kindly sponsored by John Gaffney of P & J Gaffney Ltd, the course was presented in excellent condition and we were well catered for despite the busyness of the club due to The Legends Tour being there that weekend.

Some of our own legends were in action on the day, not least of whom was Larry Gordon who turned in the best score with an excellent nett 71. Seán Reid was second with a nett 72 and Brian O’Callaghan took 3rd spot with a nett 34. Well done to all the prize winners on the day, full details as follows:
