Hello from beautiful Moruya!

We had our last day of golf at Moruya today on a cloudy but rain free day. We had a very enjoyable day with mixed fortunes in the results: I sadly lost one ball in the water and finished with my second ball. 

The course was very interesting with each hole having different challenges, plenty of water carry and difficult par 3’s.

We have had a great outing golf holiday and have been blessed with the weather.

Hello from beautiful Moruya!

We were lucky enough to miss the showers that were predicted for today!

It was much cooler than yesterday and the course fairways and greens were in good condition. The many water carry was challenging and some of the 3 pars were not easy. The rough was very thick - so staying on the fairway was a good thing. 

We only played social today - tomorrow is competition.

Meanwhile at Gosford……

The Golf Event of the day was a Medley Single Stableford + Golden Ball Team.

SINGLE STABLEFORD RESULTS:

We had 194 starters with 3 visitors from Prospect Vale, Overseas and North Turramurra.
