Wednesday saw the introduction of a new format instead of the normal nearest the pins. Super six involves the random pick of 6 holes done by the computer. The best score over these 6 holes wins the majority of the normal pro Pin and nearest the pins the second place receives a lower percentage. If unsure check with Damien, this will be a feature mainly for Wednesday golf every month or so. The 6 holes on Wednesday were the 2nd, 6th, 9th, 12th, 15th and 17th. Winner was Riley Lightfoot with a combined score of 14 with the runner up Dave Mosman also on 14.
