Terry Gordon and Terry Jones triumphed as 42 seniors battled it out for the Trophy Winners Vase and the Reg Little Cup at New Forest Golf Club.
The Trophy Winners Vase, a stroke-play competition, was contested for by anyone who had won a trophy or monthly medal in the previous year and the Reg Little Cup, played in a Stableford format, was for those whose luck may have deserted them in the trophy matches.

Both competitions were played out off the white tees in showery conditions.
Overnight rain had filled a few of the bunkers, but it was decided to leave them in play at last month’s event, with the appropriate relief being taken.
Gordon won The Trophy Winners Vase quite comfortably as he scored net 65.
Second-placed Mike Ahearn recorded net 70 ahead of Andy Homes, in third, who was one shot further back. Mike Wharton’s haul of net 72 was good enough for fourth.
Jones edged out second-placed Mike Broom on countback in the Reg Little Cup on 34 points.
