A glorious final day of April saw AGC’s seniors take to the course for the ‘fun’ comp of 3 clubs and a putter.

The fine weather of the last few weeks has really seen the course dry out, the grass grow, and the ground firm up so the ball now runs a lot further! The hard work of Andy & his team is much appreciated with clear up of winter debris and cutting definition of fairways now making the course look truly stunning.

With only 3 clubs + a putter in your bag you have to be able to play several ‘inventive shots’, so much deliberation was evident by all players as they  tried to work out which 3 clubs would make a winning combination. We can reveal that this year’s winner selected a 3 wood, 7 wood and 9 iron as his weapons of choice.  We can also reveal the winner wasn’t Ian Cook, who was trying for a hat trick of wins having won this trophy in both 2024 and 2025.

With the bank holiday weekend upon us a lot of our regular seniors were away on holiday, so there was a reduced field of 19 players trying for glory. Full results are tabulated below (and in the attached pdf) but in third place was Stan Munks with 34 points. Taking the silver runner up slot was Keith Else, also with 34 points, but a better back 9. This year’s winner, with 35 points, was Ross Poyner who, with the Senior’s Captain being one of the holidaymakers, received his trophy from the Treasurer, Gordon Kells.
