Golf - Sunday 19th December 2010

We were once again fortunate to have some good weather for our popular Sunday Mixed Golf.

The early part of the day had some nice cloud cover and the latter part of the day warmed up to fine and sunny ( & a touch breezy at times) so we had some great golf scores in as the course is in great condition and playing well.

Our playing partners today were Duncan & Rosalie Dyer who are always great company. We were all beautifully colour co-ordinated with our blue golf limos which is very important. We had some good highlights throughout the day with a birdie from Duncan and 41 points from Peter which were good highlights. Rosalie came home with a nice par at the 18th & I was there in spirit if not in scoring ability.

The Golf Event of the day was a 2 Ball Aggregate + Single Stableford Mixed Men and Ladies.

We had 96 starters with 6 visitors from Everglades, Magenta Shores. Nambucca Heads & Oatlands.
