Hi Gents
Its great to be back to the golf again. Just a wee update for you. On Sunday the committee will meet to discuss the best way forward for the start of the new season so please be patient and keep an eye on the blog for details. In the mean time I would like to remind all members that golf is only allowed in 2 balls.This is not a local rule ITS THE LAW.
Thanks Gary McLuskey

Hello gentlemen
I’m guessing this will come
as no surprise to any of you but the committee have decided to cancel all the
winter competitions for this season. All entry money will be refunded if
requested but if not it will go to the captains charity which is the Guide Dogs
for the Blind training centre Forfar. Those wanting their refund should contact
Gary McLuskey or Norman Dyce.
When there is an upturn
in the weather we would propose a couple of fun competitions on the Rannaleroch
course which have to be entered on line thus letting us get used to using the
online booking system. There will be weekly updates posted on a Thursday on the
gents blog.
Thank you and stay safe
Gary McLuskey
Hi gents please see the latest from Scottish Golf
Following our COVID-19 update yesterday, we are now in a position to provide further information about the new enhanced restrictions.
Please note that mainland Scotland has now moved from Level 4 to a temporary Lockdown or enhanced Level 4 (Stay at Home), with new guidance to stay at home except for essential purposes.
An updated table summarising the rules for the current lockdown period (Level 4 – Stay at Home) can be accessed here and are effective immediately:
As with all of our COVID-19 guidance, this is subject to further change which can take place at short notice. Should any changes take place, we will inform all affiliated clubs as soon as possible.
We are in a unique and privileged position in Scotland with our golf courses being permitted to stay open and we respectfully ask that everyone adapts their operations accordingly to ensure that every facility continues to adhere to the revised guidelines. In doing so we can, as a sport, play our part in minimising further spread of the virus, whilst ensuring that golfers across Scotland can continue to enjoy the many health benefits from playing golf.
Stay safe

Notes
In an effort to familiarise everyone with the new WHS, I am asking that you please SIGN IN for the competition on the PSI terminal as well as the sheet in the blue folder. When you sign in this will give you the playing handicap for the day. When marking the scorecard, just enter the GROSS scores, the computer will work out your Stableford score. Please confirm and verify the GROSS scores with your playing partners at the end of the round.
Should the Summer Course not be available due to weather conditions, the competition will revert to the Winter Course using the winter scorecards and handicap index, playing from the winter tees and a handicap allowance of 75% of the Yellow Course Handicap
