The June monthly medal had an added benefit this year with inclusion in Strathendrick's events that are part of the Loch Lomond Whisky promotions.
There was a fantastic entry of 32 competitors with the worthy winner and runner up, Alan Palmer and Alan Needham respectively, both scoring 61. They will both be entered into the Loch Lomond Whisky Draw, as well as picking up their prize of a bottle of Malt on the day!
