The first Saturday outing of the new season for Dalhousie members on Buddon Links, modestly attended but yielding some excellent golf despite bursts of wetting drizzle, was notable for a quite superb string of four holes which Gordon Adam put together in the middle of his round. It began with a tremendous birdie three at the notoriously stiff seventh ( there are VERY few of these around, even at the best of times ) a par at the short eighth, then a further birdie at the ninth which, off the medal tee, is as hard as it could possibly become. Gordon then put the icing on the cake with a fourth three at the short tenth. It was breathtaking stuff from a long-standing member whose swing is widely acknowledged as being among the smoothest in the Dalhousie and surely bodes well for him in the season ahead.......
