Wednesday 12 October, Stableford:
Steuart Hawke has been playing very consistent golf recently. ( Must be a “wet-tracker!”) But this week he has outdone himself, by beating his age. Hawkey has posted a superb 41 points, off a 14-handicap, to easily win the day,( and pip the age barrier!) Junior Garside can be pleased with his 38 points and took home the runner-up prize. Balls extended all the way down to 32. NTP winners were Ken Barratt (3rd), Happy Gilmore (5th), Hatty (9th), Mr. Scotland Leckenby (12th) and Maxwell Carvill (15th).
TWILIGHT:
Yes, it’s back! Last week saw the return of this very popular 9-hole comp. ( We love seeing visitors join in with this event, too, held every Thursday.) You can hit off anytime in the p.m. then come in for a great value-for-money meal, prepared by Skye, our extraordinary Chef! So, last week, the much-talented Clint Toohey stole the “goodies” with an impressive 20 points. He was closely followed by P.K. with 19 points. The ball rundown reached 16 points only! Two NTP winners took home 3 balls each, they being visitor, Andrew Yuill, (on the 3rd—from Bairnsdale G.C.) and James Campion (9th).
This week, there was no Twilight due to the conditions on-course, and also no carts!
Saturday 15 October, 4-person Ambrose:
The much-anticipated Back-to-Warbie day saw fine conditions ensue, and a “drying” course to challenge the BIG field of 120. It was great to see many ex-members come back to sup[port the day, PLUS a large number of visitors all of which made for a very profitable event! The Ambrose winners comprised Darryl Ward, Rob and Kyle Ferguson and Jeff Sharp, whose Nett score of 50.87 easily took home the major prizes. The runner-up team, of Mick and John Danaher, Deanne Rasmusson and Howard McDonald posted a very creditable 53.25. Finally, coming in 3rd were Paul Osbourne, Willo, Tony Hicks and Terry McNee, who posted a 53.37! NTP daily winners were Ben Davies (3rd), the ever-consistent Gary Frankovic (5th), Peter Fox (9th), Darryl Ward, (12th) and A.J. (15th). Longest Drive prizes went to Meredith,(naturally!), Willo and Aaron Toole. Sandra Reidy and Danny Fox hit the straightest drives on the day. Finally, The General and Match Committees would like to publicly thank both the members and the many visitors who supported this day. No doubt, there will be another one being planned right now for 2023!
