We had a lovely day at the Gosford Golf Course today - hitting off a little later than scheduled but still just managing to get in before the last rays of sunshine. The weather was fine and sunny with some gusty winds from time to time. Overall it was very pleasant out on the course - even though we had some very wet patches from the recent downpours, the course was in great condition considering the constant rain. Course conditions were preferred lies throughout the green and carts were allowed.
Our playing partners today were John & Julie Hazzard who were great company and they both played really well & they made our day by coming home winners of the Mixed Irish 2 Ball Event.
The Event of the day was an Irish 2 Ball + Singles Mixed Men and Ladies.
We had 120 starters with 10 visitors from Berkeley Park, Byron Bay, Muirfield, PGA, Terrigal, Toukley, Tuggerah Lakes & Wyong.
