A small field made the most of perfect conditions to challenge for bragging rights in the October Sovereign Resort Monthly Medal at Cooktown Golf Club on 12 October.
Steve Butler tackled the Walker Bay course with gusto to return to the clubhouse with a tidy 74 off the stick for a winning nett 62, a 2-under result for the round.
Ryan Grayson (gross 89/nett 66) and Sam Godfrey-Roberts (gross 75/nett 66) battled for second position on the podium with their shared 1-over efforts, but it was the former who took home the runner-up chocolates.
Butler capped off his winning day by taking the nearest to the pin honours for 2/11, while Godfrey-Roberts (14) and Wal Welsh (9/18) also impressed with the short clubs.
Golfers will contest an 18-hole stroke event off the white tees on 19 October.
