CAPTAIN’s CORNER

We were treated to a perfect day for our Host Day at Peregian Springs.  Their course was in A1 condition, and our best player was Les Grimsditch with 39 points.

It was nice to have our guest of honor “Marty” make an appearance for our compulsory free hamburger and drink at “Marty’s Hut”.   Once again Jim Henderson and Rod Harper did a great job with the organizing and cooking.

The 2 Man Ambrose featured some very good scores.  The best of them came from early players John Stewart & Col Easton who shot 3 birdies on the back 9 to finish with a nett 59½.  Next best was Graeme Finn & Laurie Staples with 61, and in 3rd place were Mike Smith & Andrew Dick with 61½.

We welcome new member Michael Loe for his 1st game with the Vets.  If you see Michael make sure you say hello and make him feel welcome.

Next Wednesday is our June Monthly Medal.  If you recall we had to cancel April’s Monthly Medal due to wet weather.   The April Monthly Medal will now be played on MONDAY the 15th of June and it will be an 8.00 am shotgun start.   The sheet will go out next week.

  • 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
