Golf - Sunday 9th January 2011























































At first light this morning and into the early part of the morning I could not see how golf could happen today. We had rain overnight & into the morning looking very settled in. By 10.00 the blue sky was showing and it had got quite hot. By 11.00am there was no question that golf would be on and there were a lot of happy people over at the Golf Club especially so when we all had our rounds of golf in hot, but eased by a nice breeze and no sign of rain until well after the last round of golf was completed.
Our playing partners today were George and Vicki Foster and we had a great day out on the village green - especially when we beat the boys for the Keno ticket on the second last hole with a brilliant approach shot from Vicki who went on to score 4/4 to win the day for the girls.
The Event of the day was a Team Stableford 1 X 2 X 3 + Single Stableford for Men and Ladies.
We had 111 starters with 5 visitors from Nambucca Heads, Stoneleigh UK, Terrigal and Toukley.
