Golf - Sunday 20th May 2012

What good luck we had with the weather today.  The predicted showers did not eventuate and we had good weather all day if a little chilly when the sun went under cloud.

Our playing partners today were my brother Graham and my lovely sister-in-law Anne and we had a great day out on the course with some good highlights including a 3 pointer on the 18th from Anne and a gobbler par on the 10th from me which made our day.

The Golf Event of the day was a Medley Teams Event - Split Sixes + Single Stableford for Men and Ladies.

We had 73 starters with 3 visitors from Howlong, Riverside Oaks and Terrigal.
