Fifty-seven hearty souls wandered out to the course on Saturday and thought while they were there they might as well have a game despite the weather. In actual fact there was not a lot of rain and the course was mostly dry where it counted. Just goes to show, don’t give up too early. We played a single stableford in Melbourne weather. It changed every five minutes, rain, wind, sunny, hot, humid and testing.
The results of this escapade were –
Div 1 – Patrick (Mr Nice Guy) Tregellas (38 Points) from Paul Praestiin (also 38 points)
Div 2 – Steve Salter (younger than Wil and rarely seen, good one Steve) – 38 points from Joel Davies with 37 points.
Run down went to 33 points.
Pin shots
2nd – Ross Prickett & The House
7th – Paul Praestiin & Steve Evans
12th – Nico Neidhart & Joel Davies
16th – Ray (now your talking) Mills & Steve Evans (again)
Pro pin – Joel Davies $55 (who were the two who didn’t go in it?)
The all-important raffle and this looks like a fix, went to Wayne Muir x 2, Mick Kemp x 2 and Captain Tink x 1. We might have to hold an inquiry. Jimmy Wood will head it up.
This Wednesday we will play for the long-awaited mid-week medal in two divisions and next Saturday will be a 4BBB with a single stab in conjunction. Get out and have a go, don’t be fooled by the weather.
Tink reckons the afternoon players had the rub this week but what does he know. He only played in the damp in the morning and the afternoon had all the conditions, see Melbourne above.
Golf – The more practice you need, the more practice you get.
Hit it hard and hope you find it.
