AFTER a quiet 2014 by his standards, Steve Jones has had an excellent start to 2015 as he made his second entry into the winners enclosure since the turn of the year at Brean Golf Club.

This time the Charles Cooke March Hare Stableford went his way after a 42 point score which also saw another shot deducted from his handicap.

He won by a single point from Steve Eley who was the only other player to break the 40 point barrier on a glorious Spring day.

Third place was taken by Pete Dunn on 39 with Phil Hodgson securing fourth on countback on 38 ahead of Tony Richards.

The following day the Loxton Trophy was contested where the entrants drawn into random pairs to compete.

The winning duo were no strangers to tasting success together as Ian Adams and Murray Parsons are regular and successful partners in Summer and Winter knockouts at the club.

They struck gold again with a betterball score of 61 to win by two shots from Brian Read and Nigel Hodges.

Matt Haskins and Richard Triscott and Andy Thomas and Pete Barton shared third spot on 65.

The only Seniors action of the week saw Colin Roberts win a countback from Seniors Captain Bob Hurrell to collect the March Seniors Stableford.

Both players had returned 35 point cards but Roberts prevailed on the back nine score. Mike Allen was third on 34 as he too held off Tony Roper via a countback situation.
