A wonderful afternoon of golf was had by all at Carradale Golf Club today. Congratulations to the 2017 winners of The Neilson Rose Bowl John Rattray & Mark Weems (28.9). Well done to Runners Up Susan Rattray & Stuart Neilson (34.2) as well as Gordon Abernethy & Marlene Walker (34.3) close behind in 3rd place. The course was in great condition due to the dedicated work by green keeper Robert Strang with the spring work all paying off. A big thank you also to all who took part, helped on the day and especially the Neilson family for the continued long standing support of Carradale Golf Club.

The Rose Bowl was presented in 1982 by Bobby and Lorna Neilson when for the first time in history of the club that husband and wife had been captain of their different section.  Bobby and Lorna have enjoyed mixed foursomes competitions over many years and  it was thought a greensome competition  would encourage more people to play.  The Rose Bowl was given to reflect the family’s love of Carradale. Now in its 35th year provides a very popular 9 hole competition for members and visitors.
