Penola Golf Club had a strong turnout of 64 players on a fine day for golf.
As expected the local boys Bill Cheers with 37 and Trevor Williams with 35 acquitted themselves well.
In first division Cheers was runner up to Robe’s Wally Altschwager, who scored a creditable 38 to win narrowly.
Geoff Cameron on 33 was third, counting out new member Russell Lewis, also on 33.
Second division was won by Williams on 35 from Alex Juokoff on 29 and Bruce Packer 27.
The nearest the pins were taken by Cheers, Pete Barras and Kymbo Sutherland, while the Ross Orchard trophy was won by Richard Neale and Russ Lingham.
An energetic Barry Brook won the scotch, bringing glee to his fellow travellers.
The ball rundown was to 26 points.
The club’s next outing will be at Beachport on October 24, followed by Mount Gambier on November 7.
