I always think it is a shame about the entrance to Robin Hood Golf Club - A very narrow road past the local school makes access interesting at the time parents are dropping off or collecting their offspring.
However, this hidden gem in Solihull is always worth playing. You cannot believe you are in the middle of so much conurbation as there is so much wildlife and so little noise pollution. June sunshine meant that the majority were wearing shorts and the course played well.
Martin Dunn and Dave Rogers were short of team members but Guy Mucklow and Antony Blyth stepped in as supersubs to make up the team. Antony managed to get his ball stuck up a tree but sensibly took a drop, rather than try and outdo Bernhard Langer at Fulford Heath. Russ Moore made a rare appearance and cleaned up with 95 points, a two and a nearest the pin for team mate Matthew Ruffino.
Thank you for your support.
