Match Report: Cookie Jar Masters Friday at Blackwell
The ‘Cookie Jar Masters Friday’ not only coincided with the Bank Holiday Good Friday, but also the best day of weather Britain had seen so far this year. Our 6th event and 4th ‘Mixer’, Masters Friday event saw 44 golfers from all over the country make a pilgrimage to Blackwell Golf Club for a traditional jacket & tie club lunch, 18 holes of golf and an evening of watching trees fall down at Augusta National.

Goswick Golf Club
Back in October we visited Goswick Golf Club, lying on a remote strip of ground 30 miles north of Newcastle and 6 miles south of Berwick upon Tweed.

The initial course has evolved over time, steadily stretching northwards with the involvement of James Braid, Willie Park Jnr and more recently Mackenzie & Ebert. Because its slightly off the beaten path, not enough spotlight goes to clubs like Goswick, Seaton Carew or Bamburgh / Dunstanburgh Castle, however this film (and perhaps some more to come) will give you a sneak peak as to what you are missing! https://youtu.be/FTIVP9CXOu8
