Situated on the headland between the picturesque bays of Langland and Caswell is the Langland Bay golf course and if you were to choose the conditions in which to play this course it would be on a sunny and windless day. These were the ideal conditions that a group of thirty Tenby seniors experienced when […]
Eleven of the twenty-six seniors who turned out for this week’s roll-up on Tuesday had already played at Langland Bay on Monday. It seems that they used the ‘Away Day’ as an opportunity to hone their skills and improve their chances in the Summer competition. The race for the best six scores over the Summer […]
What a sight and what an achievement! Charlie McFee lined himself up on the twelfth tee and, with his head down, he executed a perfect swing. Charlie and his partners saw his ball arrow its way to the green. Two bounces and the sound of ball hitting the pin was clearly audible back on the […]
Only twenty-three seniors turned out on this gloomy Tuesday to try to improve their overall score in the Summer competition, with the ‘Best Six Scores out of Ten’ to count. On leaving home they must all have anticipated a difficult day with a low mist engulfing the course. The mist lifted but the breeze remained […]
The Seniors’ weekly competition did not take place last week due to the high winds and heavy rain. All sensible players remained at home. Two days later, on the Thursday, the rain came down in buckets again making for a very unpleasant day on the course. Two brave souls started a quarter final competition round […]
Last week the Claret Jug Competition, run by the South Wales Seniors Classic, was a complete washout. This week it has been cancelled, due to the heavy rains forecast for Wednesday.

Mick Seal may have languished in the lower ranks last week but he has bounced back this week with a score of thirty-eight points. However, it was not good enough to elevate him to top spot. That went to his playing partner, Glenn Smith, who made use of the warm and benign conditions to score […]
Last week’s winner, Mick Seal, is the only senior to have won more than one of this Summer’s competitions. He was our winner last week, scoring forty-two points, but rather fell from grace on this week’s outing. He ended up with twenty-two points, a loss of twenty points. That may, in some part, be attributed […]
Eight seniors travelled to Neath Golf Club to take part in their Seniors Open Competition on the last day of July, the third hottest day on record. Last to arrive was Des Stone who had spent half an hour driving round the Neath area in circles, having taken a wrong turning. There was still enough […]
At some times on the course the number of buggies, each with single occupant, looks rather like the wagons in the old western movies, with pioneers as they traversed the prairies. Fortunately, the fairways are green again so there was no dust, but we were blessed with a warm and sunny day.
Twenty-nine seniors took to […]
