Cole Parkinson and his twin brother Luke have been constant features at their beloved club Reddish Vale and Cheshire Boys for several years with plenty of success along the way.
They have also put plenty of work in at the club both on and off the course.
Now Cole (pictured), who plays off three handicap, has set a record at the club which may never have been achieved at Reddish or maybe even in Cheshire before.
He was playing in the first round of the ‘major’ Jubilee Trophy and after a neat level par 33 in the first nine he followed this with a bogey five on the tenth hole.
Then came an incredible run of seven consecutive birdies on holes 11-17 before he double-bogeyed the 18th.
It took Cole to a second nine holes of four-under-par and a round of 65 to take the lead on 62 from fellow Vale and Cheshire junior star Daniel Myers, the son of Vale pro Andrew Myers.
Unfortunately Cole could not play in round two as he was playing for Cheshire Boys and the Jubilee Trophy was won by Daniel Myers with a two-round total of 127.
Archivists at Vale cannot recall the seven successive birdies ever being done before at Vale and there cannot have been many, if any in Cheshire over the years.
