Boldmere
Dean Miller lifted the Matt Wilson Trophy at Boldmere after finishing well clear of the chasing pack thanks to a magnificent round of net 53.
The 12-handicapper started with a gross birdie on the first and last holes on both loops of nine as he beat Darren Warner by eight strokes, with John Gibbins a further shot adrift in third.
Pype Hayes
One shot was the difference between first and second in both divisions of the February Medal at Pype Hayes as Robert Moore and Stephen Bennett took the respective plaudits.
Moore compiled a net 63 to nudge one ahead of Stephen Heathcote, Darran Storer and Nick Dymond in the top section, while Bennett’s excellent net 60 was too good for Colin Simmons.
The latest Ladies Nine-hole Eclectic comp went to Marie Pagett from Christine Drayton.

Tim McDonald’s birdie two on the 15th hole at Stoneleigh Deer Park proved decisive in the February Stags Stableford as the high-handicapper secured first position with 37 points.

Windmill Village
