Player Honours, Caps, Achievements. The page is building up nicely but there are still a large number of members whose coyness is depriving others of an appreciation of their successes. Successes need not be in major championships or national representation. Club, County, 36 holers, anything you look back o with a wee bit of pride. Panmure's Dougal Chalmers is the latest to contribute. Dougal has won the Eden trophy TWICE. How good is that?
