Men’s Golf Wednesday 21st and Saturday 24th February

A small kerfuffle for the week just gone so you get two blogs for the price of one.

Wednesday 21st – 4P Ambrose

23 teams tried their luck (skill?) with the winners being the red-hot side of Wayne Woodford, Pat Tregellas, Gary Dowding and Ray (Perpetual motion) Price, with a very nice 54 nett. 

Runners up with an unlucky 57 nett were Col Norton, Patrick Hayes, Nimai Strickland and Chris Brown. Run down went to 59 nett.

Pin shots –

2. Shane Vanderlight (How did that happen)

7. Alan Simpson and also the pro pin ($78) – that makes a nice day out.

12. Ben Mitchell

16. Nick (go the Broncos) Davis

Raffles went to Peter Edwards x 2 and Derryk Russell x 3.

The question was asked why don’t all team members receive pin shot balls and the answer is – 

1. Everyone gets a shot at it.

2. Ambrose days are close to the bone days with all prizes (winners, runners up and run downs) all by 4

Hope that makes sense and answers the question.

Saturday 24th – Single Stableford

Small field possibly brought about by people believing the weather forecasters. Didn’t happen.

72 starters but not 72 finishers were there, Jimmy and group?

Div 1 was won by Ray (now your talking) Mills with 41 points and runner up Ryan Murphy with 40 points.

Div 2 was won by Michael Barnett on a count back from Nick (go the Broncs) Davis (37 points). This was a tight tussle as there were 4 players on 37.

Run downs went to 34 points all in.  

Pin shots – 

2nd – Mark Kenny & Nick (gtb) Davis

7th – Nathan Simpson & Brandon Stockwell

12th – El Capitano (Tink) & House

16th – John Faust & Des Scott

The Raffles – Dave Wallace x 3 and Nick (gtb, could also be ‘go to bug—’) Davis

Reminders – 

1. Next week Monthly Medal

2. AGM 16th of March at 2.00pm at ‘Slice and Fork’ curtained area. This will be preceded by a medley stableford 8.00am shotgun start. Time sheet will be out shortly so don’t forget to book in.

It’s amazing how a golfer, who never helps out around the house, will replace his divots, repair his ball marks, and rake his sand traps. (He obviously plays at some other course than this)

Hit it hard and hope you find it.

President Brent and Captain Tink.
