Sunday Social Golf Begins

We will be conducting a 10 hole Ambrose social fun event at 10 am on the first Sunday of the month for the next few months. We encourage non members and non golfers to come out for a hit. The entry fee is just $10.

For those unfamiliar, an Ambrose competition is simply a scramble using team handicaps to produce a net score.

In a scramble, all members of your team tee off. Team members compare results and decide which of the drives is best. All team members then play their second shots from the location of the best drive. Repeat this process until the ball is in the hole.

The next 10 hole ambrose will be held on Sunday July 5, so put the date in your diary now.

Results for Sunday’s event:

  • Winners – Gus & Pickles
  • Runners up – Kobi & Bevan
  • Nearest the pin hole 4 – Tommo
  • Nearest the pin hole 11 – Gus
  • Long Drive Men – Tommo
  • Long Drive Junior – Kobi
  • Mars Bar – Bob & Dick
