Hickory victory for Elspeth

Thomson and Dick Walker

Strathaven Golf Club celebrated its 100th birthday last Friday with a number of nine-hole shotgun Stableford competitions throughout the day.

The competitors used hickory-shafted clubs and were dressed in 1908 costumes. The overall winners were Elspeth Thomson and Dick Walker with 22 and 20 Stableford points respectively for nine holes.

They are thinking of selling their Callaways and reverting to Hickory clubs (not that they used them in the past).
