If you did not play golf at Gosford Golf Club today then YOU MISSED A TREAT. The course is looking fabulous after the recent rains. The fairways & greens are lush & it was a pleasure to play on the course today. The blue sky and sunshine of today settled the course into a very playable state.
My playing partners for a social game of golf were Wendy Stapleton, Jan Walker & Fay Bailey.
Wendy had a nice easy 37 points & was the champion of our group with Fay providing the highlight of the day when her buggy got a mind of it's own & upended itself in the bunker at the 15th.
It was not that long ago that rain such as we had over the last few days would have caused havock on the course with bad drainage, mud and slush everywhere. It was not unusual to have the course closed for days at a time. What a great improvement & congratulations to the ground staff & Club Management for dealing with these wet weather problems. Closing of the course does not seem to be an issue these days.
Water supply is always an ongoing problem & is also being well addressed by the management. The recent rains have filled all of our dams to capacity so that the future hot summer months ahead this year should not cause any water shortage. (David, our course superintendant is very happy with this recent water supply into the dams)
As there were no competition matches today I do not have a results report.
