The 1st round of the Gibbs Cup was played on Tuesday 16th with nineteen ladies taking part. With heavy rain forecast for the afternoon and evening the majority played in the morning and avoided another soaking. Sheila Hourston was in first place on 74[14] and her gross of 88 with a lovely two at the 13th was the best of the day. Michelle Clouston was one shot further back on 75[14] and Sally Inkster third on 76[21]. ![]()
The 2nd round was due to be played on Thursday 18th but again due to the weather was postponed until Sunday 21st. Although rather wet early on Sunday and a bit damp underfoot it was dry above with very little wind. Moira Nicolson 73[18] and Lynn Shearer 73[12] tied for first place with Moira winning having the better inward nine. Sally Inkster was third on 77[21]. The only two recorded was by Moira at the 13th.![]()
Weather permitting the 3rd and final round will be played on Tuesday 23rd when the best two out of three rounds will decide the winner of the cup. ![]()
On Thursday 25th and Tuesday 30th there will be beginners nights when tuition will be available.![]()
All our best wishes go to our lady captain Sandra Shearer for a speedy recovery after her fall and hope its not too long before she is back on the golf course again.

Orkney Golf Club got its summer season underway this past week after the washout last Saturday. 66 gents took part in the Highland Park Open on Saturday with, a good turnout of visitors from Stromness adding to the entry.![]()
![]()
The weather was kind to the morning starters with bright, dry conditions and a slight south westerly breeze. This allowed for decent play on a course which, for the time of year, was superbly turned out by Chris, Laura and the rest of the greenkeeping squad. ![]()
![]()
It was to be the earlier starters who would claim the prizes on offer, with the weather deteriorating in the afternoon to heavy rain and and a near gale westerly blowing up. This made for near impossible conditions for the later starters. ![]()
![]()
In the Gross section, it was Lee Finlay who claimed top spot with 72, two strokes ahead of Michael Schinkel. Michael in turn was another two strokes ahead of Stromness Captain Andrew Woodward with 74 and 76 respectively just showing how tough the scoring was throughout the day.![]()
![]()
In the nett section again it was the early birds who picked up the goodies with Michael Moodie's 80 nett 67 pipping visitor Andrew Groundwater's 74 nett 67 on countback. Richard Ryder claimed 3rd spot with a nett 72, just ahead of Raymie Stanger on the same score. ![]()
![]()
Nearest the pin in two, on the 18th, were Shaun Sutherland in the under 12 category while Nicky Bichan was closest in the 12+ section. ![]()
![]()
The Club would like to say a huge thanks to Highland Park for their continued support and to Brian Firth for presenting the prizes. ![]()
![]()
As a footnote, for further competition, the committee would be most appreciative if players who are on the prize lists could make every effort to attend for prize-giving's as a mark of respect towards the sponsors. Also it would be advisable for everyone to check the notice board before teeing off for any local rules alterations, etc. And could players please remember to rake bunkers after use. ![]()
![]()
The previous Wednesday a sweep was played. Brian Firth was first with a nett 69. Second was Stewart Fotheringhame on 70 and 3rd was Ewan Rendall with the lowest gross of 73 nett 71. ![]()
![]()
This week coming the Dewar/Spence first round will take place on Wednesday 17th concluding on Sunday. The April medal will be played on Wednesday 24th.![]()
![]()
And finally, the gents section would like to wish the new club Captain Neil Tait and his committee, Sandra Shearer, ladies Captain and fellow ladies committee, all the very best for the coming season. ![]()
![]()
Also, to all the golfers throughout the county, have a great season and hopefully we can all enjoy some decent weather throughout the year.![]()

The Highland Park Open, the first open of the season, was held on Saturday 13th with twenty-nine ladies taking part. The early starters had the best of the day weatherwise as the later starters had to contend with some heavy showers. There was a tie for first gross between Shona Croy and Nicola Sutherland on 86 with Shona winning having the better inward nine. Shona Slater was in third place on 88. The best nett score of 74[28] was by Kate George one shot ahead of Moira Nicolson 75[19] who was second followed by Ann Oag 76[14] in third place. The special prizes for nearest the pin at the fourth were won by Shona Croy in the lower handicap and Sally Inkster in higher group. The first two’s of the season were recorded at the 13th by both Shona Slater and Morven Gemmill. Many thanks go to Highland Park for their support to the club.![]()
Earlier in the week on Tuesday 9th twelve ladies played in the SGL & Ticketyboo April Medal in rather wet conditions and this was reflected in the scoring. The winner on 81[19] was Moira Nicolson with Linda Milne 82[27], Maggie Learmonth 82[19] and Kate George 82[27] tied for second and after countback Linda was the runner up.![]()
After the heavy rain on Tuesday, it was gales for the RNLI competition on Thursday 11th with the morning players moved to later in the day when the wind finally eased. Steady golfer Moira Nicolson was again the best player and won the trophy with 74[19] and again three players tied for second. Linda Bonner 75[16] gained second place having a better last six holes over Michelle Clouston 75[14] who had a better last nine over Wilma Bichan 75[40]. A total of £112 was raised for the RNLI from this competition.![]()
All our best wishes go to Lydia Campbell after her fall on Tuesday and hope not too long before she is on the golf course again.

The summer season got underway on Tuesday 2nd with a nine hole get-together and beginners competition in rather chilly conditions with 18 ladies taking part. The winner with a nett score of 35[16] was Kate George and there was a tie for 2nd place between Moira Nicolson 38[11] and Marlene Croy 38[18] with Moira’s last six holes gaining the second spot. ![]()
The first 18 hole competition was held on Thursday 4th followed be another beginners evening and with a slightly poorer forecast only 14 ladies entered. This was a non counting competition and was won by Kathryn Sutherland on 72[46]. Once again there was a tie for second between Sandra Shearer 75[19] and Kate George 75[27] with Sandra having the better back nine. The best gross score was a 94 by both Lynn Shearer and Sandra Shearer with Lynn having a better inward nine.![]()
As the weather slowly deteriorated all week the Ringer Competition scheduled for Saturday 6th was postponed so fingers crossed for Saturday 13th when the first ‘Open’ of the season the Highland Park Open is due to take place.

Report of the conclusion of the Ladies' winter golf season at OGC:![]()
![]()
Seventeen ladies took part in the final day of Winter Golf on Easter Saturday, 30th March. In stark contrast to much of the winter the sun shone and there was little/no wind, but with the greens back in play the longer course meant that scores were higher than usual. Equal 6th on 43 were Diane Crawford and Linda Milne; Sheila Hourston was 4th on 41½; Sandra Shearer 3rd with 41; Maggie Learmonth was 2nd with 40½; and Lynn Shearer won with 40. There were two birdies: Linda Bonner with a 3 on the 8th and Shona Croy with a 2 on the 4th. Beiting and Brew provided a tasty selection of hot dogs for lunch before the ladies explored the foreign territory of the Back 9 in the afternoon with a gentle reminder of the experience of playing 18 holes nearly all at once. ![]()
![]()
This brings the Winter Season to a close and the final overal results were as follows. 6th with 19 points was Lydia Campbell; 5th was Laura Sayer-Hill on 21; 4th, Carol Hartman with 22; Sally Inkster came 3rd with 27½; Linda Bonner 2nd on 28; and clear overall winner of the Winter League was Shona Croy, four points in front on 32. Shona also won the Winter Ringer with 29½ and Linda Milne was 2nd with 31½. Congratulations, Shona, on the double win. ![]()
![]()
Our thanks go to Lydia for keeping us all on track over a particularly tough winter with 10 out of a potential 25 playing opportunities having to be cancelled due to poor weather. She received a cheerful bunch of flowers in appreciation. Also appreciated was Marlene's baking to accompany the post competition coffee and blether and she received an orchid by way of thanks. Finally, thank you to the mysteriously despondent Easter Bunny grudgingly distributing mini eggs after the competition. Hopefully it has cheered up now and has its bounce back ready for the new season!
Hi folks,![]()

A few alterations to the practice range, a colour coded distance plate system has been added, with 25yd distance ranges located up the middle, to help you gauge your accuracy (or inaccuracy 🤭)![]()
