SATURDAY’S winner at the Blue Lake Golf Club, Simon Perryman, made it a double by taking out the mideek stroke competition on Tuesday.
Dropping a stroke off his handicap did not deter Perryman, with two strong halves of 41 and 43 for a nett 68.
Pars on the first and third holes got Perryman under way early and despite a double on the fifth, he still made the turn under his handicap of 16.
He almost threw his game away with a brace of bad holes on the 12th and 13th, with a double and a triple, but like all the good players he knuckled down to come back into contention with three pars over the last five holes.
Two players, Trevor McLean and Brett Perryman, both play off six and they both returned a nett 70 to face a count-back for the minor prizes.
McLean also had his troubles, but he made up for two doubles with a pair of birdies on the last of each nine.
A superb inward 37 was always going to be hard to beat, especially on the same handicap.
Perryman also had a birdie, his coming on the 17th hole after a fantastic front nine of 36 off the stick.
His only slight blemish came with a bogey on the sixth and it is a pity he fell away slightly after such a promising start.
He could only reply with an inward 40 to settle for third place.
A string of players all finished on nett 71, the best of them being Wayne Dunford (14).
He overcame a tardy start to close strongly with a 41.
Club president Stephen Easterbrook had glimpses of form, with birdies on the eighth and 17th holes for splits of 41 and 37.
Playing off two, Tyson Ploenges has no room for error and he only made the three for the day, with bogies on the sixth, seventh and 11th holes, the rest being pars.
Veteran Brian Vawser turned back the clock on the front nine with pars on the second and sixth holes for an outward 46, but fell away slightly on the back nine with a 49.
If he was playing stableford golf, Bert Kamphuis would have picked up five points on the third hole with a birdie, but he also fell away over the inward nine to finish with splits of 45 and 49.
Club manager Bill Burley had a square-with-the-card score heading to the last hole, but blew his score out with a rare double-bogey.
