LAST weekend saw the October Medal which was held in good conditions. Dennis Edwards obviously relishes the winter months, following his successes of last winter he came out and shot a 64 to finish one shot clear of his field.

His nearest rival in Division was Ed Shapland with 66 with Steve Drake finishing in 3rd spot and also recording the days longest gross score of 72. Ian Puckey took his honours in Division 2 on countback from Trevor Frasle both finishing on 65 with Alan Winterson coming good with a 66. Young Mark Allen finished well clear in Division three but he is probably regretting the 18th hole which cost him dear. Jonathon Ussher took 2nd place on countback from Andy Adamson.
