Shields Open

[jamiebrennan]

Well this for me is the biggest date on the calender, its not the biggest prize money but with it being my hometown open it is certainly the most important, its not all about the coin, its having your name on that trophy.
So whos fishing then? Usually get a good turn out and the pint is nice back at the New Crown even if i dont catch owt!
