 Spring Shield – The Point @Polzeath 22/03/26

CSGA SPRING SHIELD EVENT

THE POINT, POLZEATH

WEDNESDAY 22 APRIL 2026

On a really blustery day that came close to blowing the Captain’s syrup off, 42 hardy souls battled the wind in the hope of winning the world renowned and much sought after CSGA Spring Shield. LIV golfers may have their millions but that is nothing compared to dreaming of winning the Spring Shield.

The easterly wind meant that what was index 2 was no more than a drive and gentle wedge whereas index 17 was a drive and 5 iron at least. Well it was for us alpha males. The greens on the front nine were like glass and those on the back resembled shag pile carpet in their speed. And the rough was deep enough to make it a 10 hour wait at Treliske A&E if you didn’t take your medicine and chip it out.

That did not dampen the spirits at the 19th and plenty of banter including bad luck, it was his fault, how did that stay out and the usual we wuz robbed.

Don’t tell HMRC but we raised £165 on the raffle which helps to keep the costs down and Alan in monthly holidays and cruises.

Thanks to The Point for hosting us and especially to all the staff who are always cheerful, helpful and courteous.

RESULTS

  1. A PRICE/M GREEN 41
  2. D AMBROSE/PJONES 40
  3. S ANDREW/P DICKSON

T Pendleton won nearest the pin and there were twos for M Broomhead, J McConnell, M Cuffin and P Dickson. Congratulations.

Steve Marks, Treasurer.

County Matches 2026

The annual county matches against Devon take place on
Monday 11 May @Tavistock
Monday 18 May @Launceston

Thank you for volunteering to play in the Devon matches. We are a little over subscribed for the 8-pairs needed in our annual home and away fixtures v Devon. So, the selection has been made to give everyone at least one game.

10-players are selected for both games and 12 for just the one; from 7 different clubs. I hope to keep the other names as reserves given that we’re all Seniors, so there may be some drop outs.

I’ll send a reminder nearer the time with locations, dates, times and costs.

Tavistock fixture – 1pm 1st tee and jacket / tie for the meal afterwards.

Below is the selection / pairings.

Kind regards.

Simon

WHS Update

WHS have made changes to the Handicapping system by adding (Course Rating – Course Par) to the current Course Handicap!
This change will affect lower handicap golfers more than higher ones.
It is now possible to submit a 4BBB score for handicap under certain conditions.
There is also a change to the score recorded for a hole not played.

The details can be found by clicking this link – WHS Changes
