Bruntsfield Short Hole Golf Club
Return challenge match versus Bruntsfield Short Hole at Bruntsfield - 24th July 2008 The Leith Rules Golf Society return match with Bruntsfield Short Hole overturned the "tradition" that the visiting team was always victorious, as BSHGC ran out winners by 3 matches to 1. This year the match was over 27 holes, with our hosts giving us 5 holes of an advantage in each match, given the very specialist nature of the course. The results were ..... Ken Gordon & Eugene Bradley were all square with Steven Doyle & David Rintoul Douglas Foulis & Hugh Blackie lost 2 & 1 to Gordon Cochrane & William Wright Brian Donkin & Graham Wilson were all square with Fraser Gordon & Alastair Stewart Jim Maguire & Brian Graham lost 4 & 3 to Ian Hislop and Bob Linton
