MONTHLY MEDAL - PEWTER MUG

This pewter mug was awarded to Frank Davies in recognition of his win of the Monthly Medal stroke event on Saturday 8th June 1985.

Although these events were then known as the Monthly Medal, the prize awarded was this pewter mug for an unknown period. By presenting the mug at the bar the mug holder was entitled to free beer in the period up to the following month’s Monthly Medal. Frank recalls that he did not take up the offer.

The mug is engraved:

''M. G. G. C.

Monthly Medal''

Frank also noted that his score on the day was a nett 63 / gross 72, playing off a 9 handicap. During presentation that night President Laurie Johnston joking remarked of his disappointment given that he had scored nett 65 and one of his best ever rounds to be runner up on the day.
