Benign conditions that make Spain such a lovely place to live in away from the hot periods of July and August greeted the 8 members making up 4 pairs in El Plantio 2´s Texas Scramble.

However, a breeze sprang up on the last nine holes to make thingsa little spicy. Judging by the final scores with just 2.5 shots separating first and fourth positions, handicapping was spot on. Indeed first and second position was decided by a mere 0.3 handicap points.

Nearest the pins – Hole 4 Graham Blakeway, Hole 8, Ray Housley.

Second place, Handicap 6.9, David Swann, Paddy O’Brien – 48.1 points

First place, Handicap 7.2 , Ray Housley, Mike Davies – 47.8 points.
