Golf - Tuesday 19th June 2012

Some people found it tough out on the course today but it was much improved from Sunday conditions and the course is drying up at a rapid rate.  We had some good scores in today which proves that it could not have been too bad.

My playing partners were Lynn Puiatti and Anne Forrester and they were great company and carried me home for a good win today.  We did have some good highlights including a new way to "save a  putt" which resulted in some good one putts.  I have never won the putting competition before in all the years that I have been playing golf so that says something for the system.
