The skies are the limit for some of these new lady golfers who are loving their first twilight golf season and it truly is great to see them out playing.
Other players who deserve a mention are:Jody Rudd 29, Scott Munro 30, Matt Piper, Blake Jones, Brendan O'Connell 31, Cooper Jones, Leo Plant, Peter Taylor, David Lang, Ray Gough 32, Mick Doolin, Damian Lang, Phil Killen, Jaryd Pattison, Frank Porcu, Brett McWhinnie, Neil McCallum, Cat Gray, Christine Wallace and Shane McInnes all on 33.
It needs to be said, singular performances of brilliance can only take a team so far.
It's the team attendance performance that earns finals spots every season.
Eight players out of eight gives a team a huge advantage over one that only has say five or six.
The ball competition stayed on 34 again this week. Nine rounds have been completed so far in the 2020-21 twilight golf competition.
Two rounds remain before the divisions are set in stone for the remainder off the year.
After round 11 has been completed on December 20 teams will be split into one of four divisions depending on scores.
The top nine will make up division one, the next nine division two and so on and so on for division three and four.

A countback will determine any two sides that may possibly sit on the brink of 2 divisions.
The Flintstones recorded the best team score of the round with a 12 under par 168 nett and, amazingly, only had five out of the eight starters play.
The big reason for their climb up the ladder can be attributed to Jody Rudd's brilliant 29 nett, Matt Pipers 31 nett which was two under par off the stick and the re-introduction of past player Brian Conroy, who caps off a pretty good roster for the Friday night specialists.
Wilma the cart is also in good form not having run out fuel for at least six weeks now.
Another team who deserves a mention are the Whymees. Their consistency is astounding.
