PLYMOUTH – Bryan Smith made one subtle swing change this season, and it helped him capture his first Canasawacta Country Club men’s scratch title.

Smith finished the 54-hole tournament at 3-over-par to top recent Norwich High School graduate Eric Walling by four strokes, and 21-time men’s champion, Bob Branham, by five.

Casey Marson repeated as women’s scratch title, and Doug Wilson completed the triumvirate of scratch title winners edging Jim Wysor by one stroke for the senior men’s crown.

Ted Diorio (men’s handicap), Vinny Jones (senior men’s handicap), and Marson (women’s handicap) completed the honor roll of champions Sunday.

“Not going left,” was Smith’s description of his swing change. He had his swing videotaped for the first time and took a lesson from CCC head professional Charley Winn. Smith ditched his right-to-left ball flight – that often led to snap-hooks – for a controlled left-to-right fade. “Now when I miss (a shot), it goes right.”

Smith didn’t miss much during the two-day event that wrapped up with 36 holes for the final nine players that made the cut in the men’s scratch division.
