What a great day for golf today - perfect weather with not even a sprinkle of rain to upset our day on the village green. Our playing partners were Wally & Rhonda Robertson & we had just the best day having some great highlights between us. Not enough to win any trophies but a very enjoyable day. We had some birdie chances and some well earned pars with Wally getting the ball right out there when it mattered.
The Golf Event of the day was a 2 Ball Team + Single Stableford Mixed Men and Ladies.
We had 89 starters with 9 visitors from Branxton, Muree, Oatlands, Pymble, Terrigal & Wyong.

HOW GOOD DOES IT GET!
