I was fortunate enough to take part in this year's SLL Golf Festival held at Hollandbush Golf Course in Lesmahagow.
Hamilton Grammar were represented by Cameron Graham, Jack Neiland, and Dean Johnstone. We took part in a fun Texas Scramble, but sadly the weather was terrible. It rained all day and it was incredible that the course held up so well.
Jack and Cameron were booming drives down the fairway, while myself and Dean struggled to match them. Our contributions were really in putting, though Dean did strike the shot of the day with his 3 wood onto one of the par5s. We worked well as a team, even though there were a few holes I didn't even drive off due to not being able to hold the club in the wet.
Our good scoring was let down by 3 bogeys, but even so we shot a 66. Sadly we were just pipped by a very strong Lesmahagow side who naturally had local knowledge.
Our lads did the school proud and hopefully we will be back next year to have another run at the title.
