Just a friendly reminder in these current conditions. Please follow and adhere to all signs and verbal requests made by either the match committee or Pro Shop staff regarding carts and sticking to paths and fairways. It really was dissapointing to see Cart tracks thru the rough people taking sharp turns on the fairway ripping up fairways. Please take more care regarding these simple requests.

92 starters for an aggregate 4 ball Stableford on what turned out to be a blustery day. A two-club gentle breeze for the afternoon
players. We put on the wind for the three visitors who played.
Winners were Robert Sheppard and Des Scott (72 points) from John McLoughlin and the Prez, Brent McLennan (71 points). See John if you carry me around long enough, we’ll eventually win something.
Run down went to 64 points. It was tough out there.
Pin shots
2nd – Robert Sheppard and Graham Lutton
7th – Trent Woodward and Graeme Johnson
12th – Peter McCray and Kev Trinne
16th – Nimai Strickland and Gary Roach
The Pro pin of $73 went to Nimai Strickland.

You can hit a 1-hectare fairway 10% of the time but a 5-centre meter branch 90% of the time.
Golf is the only sport that lets you drink and drive legally
