Champion: Rich Aylmer (59 points (2 day Rim Stinger))

Runner up: Jim Willson (57 points)

Competitors: 12

Challenge Winner: Charles Holmden (34 points)

Bag o'shite awarded to: Richie Jones (37 points)

Pairs winners: Andy Henderson & Jim Willson (42 points)

• J Willson and J Stewart scored the most points and therefore had the best average score from the 4 days with 120 / 30.
• P Henderson recorded the lowest points and average with 76 / 19.
• The highest score of the weekend was 36 points by J Stewart in the Day 1 pairs, utterly in vain and wasted by being partnered with R Jones.
• The lowest score of the weekend was 11 by R Aylmer on the last day (to be ignored due to a) 9 shot handicap cut and b) not trying).
• Newcomers B Toner and S Olliver both find themselves mid table in the index with 4.0 points, comfortably ahead of long term players such as P Henderson and R Jones. They should reflect on the wisdom of this.
• R Aylmer joined the pantheon of two time RS champions.
• A Henderson extended his record in the pairs to six victories, the next best being three.
• R Jones extended his record in the bag o’shites with four titles, the next “best” being two. One more and you can keep the trophy.
