Golf - Sunday 8th September 2013

The showers held off and we had a pleasant day for golf at Gosford today.  The greens were a little challenging after recent maintenance however we still had some good scores in.

Our playing partners today were Duncan & Rosalie Dyer and we had a fun day on the village green - especially when the boys conceded the Keno Ticket on the 16th hole.

The Golf Event of the day was a Single Stableford for Men and ladies + Medley Team Stableford 1 X 2 X 3.
