VETS: Newsletter week ending 6th July 2016

CAPTAIN’s CORNER

As Stroke rounds are not particularly popular with the majority of our Vets the 18 Hole Stroke competition scheduled for 17th August 2016 has been changed to a Four Ball Aggregate Stableford.

smallPRINT Australia Pty Ltd will co-sponsor the event with the Vets.

There will be prizes for the winning teams and also for the best individual Stableford scores in each grade.

The maximum any person can win will be $40.

THERE WILL BE NO SWINGERS, IT IS UP TO EACH GROUP TO MAKE SURE THEY HAVE A FOUR.  Players in a group of 3 can win the Single Stableford winner’s prize.

smallPRINT donated prizes will consist of:

WINNERS: 4 x $40 gift cards

RUNNERS/UP: 4 x $25 gift cards

3rd PLACE: 4 x $15 gift cards

Vets donated prizes will consist of:

A-GRADE WINNER: Maximum $40

B-GRADE WINNER: Maximum $40

C-GRADE WINNER: Maximum $40

There will still be our normal NTP’s and Captain’s Choice on offer.

Other contests will be on offer e.g longest drive for each grade (sponsored by smallPRINT) together with some interesting Tee placings.

  • 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.

    Karen Lilliebridge

  • 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.
