The Northern Boys




Northern Boys Love
            Gravy!!!!!!


Weighing in at a slightly greater weight is the much fancied Northern Boys.  These boys have a good understanding of what it takes to win and perhaps a greater understading of each others golf games.

Walking past a sweetie shop on the way home from school never helped these boys and they pack a fair bit of bite allowing them to lean on a few shots.
