As I write this on Sunday morning I am very thankful for the lovely day we had on Thursday . I haven’t heard of any complaints , it’s hard not to have a few little hiccups 🤣 . We have a great team and everyone on and off the committee did their bit to make it a great day for our members and our visitors!!

Thanks especially to our committee ladies for all their hard work in many different areas! I really appreciate how they just jump in and do what’s needed . Also behind the scenes our Anniversary Committee have contributed so much time and effort to make this month memorable! Next Sunday is our Grand Finale with a Medley 4 person Texas.
It will also be the end of our memorabilia room so get in and have a good look around , check out the photo albums maybe have a read of the first book of minutes it’s all part of how we evolved to what we have today : the Best and Friendliest Little Club around.
Thanks to Twin Towns for sponsoring our celebrations this made it possible for us to provide you with your lovely gift bag and for us to have a generous Invitation Day !
Also thanks to Barry and his team for looking after us with patience and a smile all day!!🤩

Thanks to Rodger and the boys for having the course ready for 8am, although I did ask for easy pin placements, what happened?!

84 starters for our mid-week medal day. Sadly only 81 finishers, bit of a slow day out there. This makes it tough for all, Wayne Muir in particular, who does all the entering for the day, he doesn’t get to go home until all that is done on top ofpresentations and raffles. So come on gents keep the play up to speed, there are a loft of bad effects for slow play which are not appreciated. If stroke play is not your thing, have a rest day at home not on the course.

The day’s results were –

Div 1 

      Winner was David Von Itzstein with a 68 nett from Jared Brown on a 71 nett.

Div 2

Winner was Cem Okan on a count back from Keith Cooper both with 68 nett and Owen McCallum finished a close third also on 68. Tough school that Div 2.

Run down went to 73 nett.

Pin Shots

2^nd – Dave (well-oiled machine from Div 2) Harrod and House

7^th – Kyle Harrison and John Edwards

12^th – Greg Morrison and Cem Okan

16^th – Patrick Hayes and Dave Harrod (2 pin shots, probably worth a red). 

Pro pin went to Cem Okan for $72. Nice day out Cem.

The raffles went to – Wayne (Mr Raffles) Muir x 1, Dave Harrod (definitely Red o’clock) x 1 and John Mason x 2.

Saturday is Monthly medal (stroke), see opening comments above.

Fairway – An unfamiliar tract of closely mowed grass running from tee to green. Your ball is normally found to the left or right of it.

Hit it hard and hope you find it.
