Jim McMullan took maximum points from the fifth round of the Barkman Trophy on Saturday (July 13) with a win on countback from Barry Rhodes and Craig Barron.
All three finished with net 72s, but Jim got the nod after a better back nine. Playing off a 23 handicap from the white tees, the two-time Shootout winner showed good form in carding a 95 off the stick in the chilly conditions.
The round also doubled as a Shootout qualifying round.
Barry, with a gross 99, pipped Craig (87) for second.
Peter Watson cobbled together a net 73 to finish fourth. He was followed by Graham Galt, Dean Goodman and James Campion - who claimed the last Barkman point on offer - with 74 each. James's 77 was the best gross score of the day.
Keri Kotua and Geoff Halkett shared the twos money with one each.
Nelson visitor Yvonne Harvey cleaned up the 9-holers with a net 33 off the back nine, which also included a two. Runner-up Richard Pearson (36) was the only other golfer to play to their handicap.
Next Saturday (July 20) we play the first of three rounds of the Super Six competition, which involves three mini matchplay games of six holes each among drawn groups of four. The 9-holers play a par round off the front nine starting at noon.
