High scores were the order of the day with some strong teams making short work of their opponents The team of; Dennis Ashbridge, Col Amos and Dave Rimmer could only manage second place on a massive +40. A “puny” score indeed when compared with the winners. Ken McKeown, Kerry O’Brien and John Carey blitzed the field winning by a massive +50. Well done! There must have been a “pairs” game as Greg Smith and Noel Jackson took third place on +39. Great effort! 29 July: If there has been a better day for playing bowls this winter, I’ve yet to see it. Friday 3-Bowl Open Jackpot Pairs was played today with 24 players participating in fine and sunny conditions. With a “pot” of $420.00 up for grabs the aim of each side was to at least win their games for a chance at the big money. The sides were very even and it made for some good quality bowling. There was a three-way tie for first place determined by the side with the greatest margin. All recorded a +9 score and a countback was needed..
