The Norman Taylor Spring and Autumn Bogey Competition

A bogey competition is match play against the course. In the seniors’ bogey competitions the players receive their full handicap and shots are taken at holes indicated by the stoke index. Players play each hole against their own net par. If they beat net par they mark their card with their score and a plus (+). If they equal net par they mark the card with their score and a half (0). If net par is not achieved the card is marked with a minus (-) and the ball should be picked up. The result is decided by deducting the number of minus holes from the number of plus holes. The winner is the player who finishes the most holes up against par.
The Spring Bogey is played in April and the Autumn Bogey is played in September. The results of the Spring and Autumn Bogey competitions are added together to decide the winner of the crystal tankard.
