64 West Vets came from all airts and pairts to compete in the West Vets Autumn Meeting at Douglas Park. For the most part, the overhead conditions were fair despite early drizzle, however the course was playing long due to overnight rain.

It was a successful day for the Super Vets, with Lana MacDonald, Anne Judge and Enid Young returning excellent scores of nett 74 – showing the ‘youngsters’ how it should be done !  

Liz Wilson

However, in the penultimate game of the day, Liz Wilson (Kilmarnock Barassie) came in with a superb gross 79/nett 72 to be the overall winner of the Autumn Meeting, thus winning the May Craddock Trophy.

Super Vet was Lana MacDonald (nett 74 bih) and Division 2 winner was Jennifer Gough (nett 77).

Sheila Shaw, Margaret Gray and Maureen Mitchel relax at the end of the day
