We had the most brilliant day for golf today, blue sky and sunshine all day with a little breeze to aid with the drying up of the course but not enough to interfere with the golf. The course has dried up really well with just a few messy places which are clearing rapidly. We had some great scores come in today which leaves some of us (me included) scratching for excuses for bad play.
The fairways and especially the greens are in great condition & the greens staff & greens committee should be congratulated for a job well done in such adverse conditions in the last month.
Our playing partners today were Clyde & Lyn Cruickshanks who were great company. We had some good highlights including a birdie each from the boys. The boys beat us for the keno ticket at the 16th hole with some very lucky shots & two 4 pointers helped a lot. We are playing them double or nothing in our next rematch.
The Event of the day was a 2 Ball Team + Single Stableford Mixed Men and Ladies.
We had 90 starters with 7 visitors from Everglades, Taree, Terrigal & Tuggerah Lakes.
