The lowest net score from these players will win the 2022 Master Medalist.
MiScore
The first competition using the new MiScore system will be Wednesday’s Men’s Competition on January 11th. Members who haven’t downloaded the App may still use a card similar to the current one. To enter this and future competitions, bookings must be made using the MiClub booking system.
Preferred Lies & Local Rules
Thanks to some warm and dry weather we have been able to remove the need for Preferred Lies. With the introduction of the new scoring system, our local rules are now available on the MiScore App and can be easily accessed while playing out on the course.
Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and I look forward to seeing you all out on the course.
