Vets – NEWSLETTER week ending 29th November 2014

Why should a chicken crossing the road have to explain its motives!!

XMAS LUNCH on 10th DECEMBER 2014

It looks like being a large field for Xmas Lunch.

The Attendance List will be out on the activities table again next week so if you didn’t indicate your intentions last week this will be your last chance.

Alternatively if you can’t make it to the clubhouse just let Rod know on [email protected].

CAPTAIN’s CORNER

This weeks’ Single Stableford was sponsored by Derek Clayton, and his sponsorship must have inspired his playing partner Ron Blount who won the B-Grade with 43 points.  Once again, “thank you Derek”.

Rod Booth scored the ultimate 3 points average per hole on the front nine.  Unfortunately for Rod, he couldn’t repeat it on the back nine which would have seen him in “Mike Smith” territory.

We have a couple of big weeks coming up, firstly with next week’s 2014 Medal of Medals Stroke event.  The week after is our Xmas Ambrose, lunch, and trophy presentation.

The Captain’s Choice this week was an aggregate Stableford.  It sure created some interest and I may consider running one of these events next year.   If all 4 players, play to their handicap they would end up with 144 points.  Our winning team was John Butler, Errol Radley, Kevin Olsen, and Bruce McLean who finished with 149 points.  They will receive 2 balls each for their efforts.

  • 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
