I WON A PRIZE




When he arrived home with the Spoon on Sunday night Simon was to embarrassed to tell his wife that he had finished last and the Spoon was his reward for getting 17 points.
So he tells her he played well and the wooden Hackers Spoon is actually a training aid to help with his putting stroke !
The above photo shows Helen practising her putting stroke in the kitchen.

NEW GOLF RULE

I


n January, the USGA and The R&A released the new Rules of Golf for 2012-2015 following an exhaustive, four-year review of golf’s 34 playing Rules in which nine principal Rules were amended to improve clarity and ensure penalties are proportionate to rules breaches. One significant change was made to Ball Moving After Address (Rule 18-2b). The addition of a new exception exonerates a player from penalty if his or her ball moves after it has been addressed when it is known or virtually certain that the player did not cause the ball to move. For example, if a gust of wind moves the ball after it has been addressed, there is no penalty and the ball is played from its new position.

FINAL PHOTOS FROM LADYBANK

Below is a selection of some photos I have from Ladybank. It's hard to imagine that just 8 days later we would be getting snow and the temperature was just above freezing.

The golf season has now started and I hope you all have a good one.

Details of first summer round will appear soon.
