Easter Sunday saw the playing of the Axe Cliff men’s Easter Bowl competition, writes Sandra Walker.
In sunny, but bitterly cold weather with very strong winds just 40 players went out to brave the conditions.
The winner was Stuart Mackie with a net 71 followed by Alex Palmer who dished up a splendid back nine to finish with net 73.
Mike Cottam took third after also finishing with 73.
Despite difficult conditions there were four two’s achieved by Richard Gibbons, Mike Cottam, Theo Baulch and Dan Taylor.
