SENIORS' STABLEFORD CHAMPIONSHIP - HONITON GOLF CLUB
53 men of a certain age gathered at Honiton Golf Club from 20 clubs across Devon for the DevonGolf Seniors' Stableford Championship. Honiton Golf Club was looking immaculate and playing quite tough, even for the more experienced amongst the players.
The competition is three competitions within one. There are 6 prizes and a trophy for the Best Nett Stableford score, 3 prizes for the Best Gross Stableford score and the Pensioners' Plate (rude!) for those aged 65 and over.
Nett Stableford

Stephen Nunn (Sidmouth), a familiar and friendly face on the DevonGolf circuit played a few tee times behind, posting a nett 36 points. Stephen held onto that lead for most of the day until Ian Tait (Bigbury - PH 9) nearer the end of the field posted the winning nett Stableford score of 38 points.
