NEWSLETTER week ending 12th October 2013 (Vets)

CAPTAIN’s CORNER

The dry condition have certainly produced some run on our golf course.  It suited the long hitting John Butler as the 13 handicapper came in with a very credible 41 points to take out A-Grade on Wednesday.  In B-Grade Kerry Martin with 44 points, and in C-Grade Alan Emery with 43 points also found the conditions favorable.

Ray Leslie took out the Captains Choice scoring a very impressive 25 points on the front 9.  Ray scored14 points on the back 9 which still kept him in the run down that stopped at 38 points.

On Tuesday the 15th October the Women are holding their 9 hole, 3 Person Ambrose Invitation Day.  Those who played last year will recall a very enjoyable day. The 9 hole competition begins at 8.00am with a Shotgun Start with the Fee being $5.00. The nomination sheet to play is at the Club. Please indicate on the sheet if you are able to supply your cart and if you are able to take a passenger with you.

Please note the following change to our program:

The 4BBB on Wednesday the 23rd October will now be an 8.00am Shotgun Start.

  • Best value for money golf course on the Sunshine Coast. A really fun course layout, forces you to use multiple clubs off tees And have good course management. The grains are in great condition and are really receptive

    Liam Henderson

  • Fantastic golf course! Really well setup with signage, sand buckets, and ball cleaners on most tees. This course is designed for playing 1-18 consecutively rather than stopping midway. A ‘grip it and rip it’ mindset will lead to disappointment as there are many hidden hazards (yes I speak from experience!). Some of the fairways are deceptively narrow or have huge swathes of flanking rough hard to see from a distance. Lots of variety! Long par 5s to short par 3s and everything in between. Take care when walking between tees as its easy for first timers to get disoriented. At just $40 I felt it was great value and would definitely go back.

  • Beautiful fairways and greens, quite a walk but worth every step. We played in the afternoon and was very pleased with the price and quality of the course.

    Hendrik van Aswegen

  • Lovely course. Challenging enough to make it fun, but not too difficult for high handicappers

    Jonty

  • Great place to play golf. Course is a good challenge for all HC’s. Very picturesque,but if you walk it the last couple of holes uphill might get you. Very limited parking. Worth a look.

    Daren Muddle

  • I’ve played at this golf course several times. The par 4 course is a bit short but well-maintained, and the lady at the pro shop were very friendly.
