A first visit to Dummer Golf Club, near Basingstoke, in over 13 years proved a notable success.
Designed by former Ryder Cup Player and legendary golf commentator Peter Alliss, the course was officially opened in 1993.There were no steep hills to climb and the walks from tee to green were nice and easy.
Built on chalk downland, the course is free draining and, with four lakes and Hampshire’s largest (but where you can ground your club) bunker to add interest to the challenge, Bunkers was delighted to be there.
The Putt Putt Cup competition, being held for just the second year, was fiercely contested with the 3 slots on the podium being taken by John F, Frazer W and John T (who won it last year).
However, it is rumoured that this excellent scoring did not exempt most players receiving heavy fines.
Unfortunately no one kept a record of the Vice captains' splendid efforts in identifying miscreants, but those who were fined remember them well!.
Well done to John for the win.
