The Par 3 course was played today for winter wind up. Only 4 ladies could play due to a few on holidays & work commitments.
The 20 holes played fairly tough today, in fact Par 4 may have been more suitable to the cards! Thanks to Gus Wenzel for setting up,the course.
The winner was Andrea Rowe, Gross 76, Nett 66. Runner Up was Sharyn Roberts 76/69. Other scores were Di Day 90/77.5 & Judy Reilly 98/80.
Andrea also collected the NTP on hole 8. Judy Reilly had a chip out on hole 14.

Russell “Gus The Good Guy” Wenzel played a steady round of golf scoring a handicap equalling 38 points, albeit that handicap was a generous 14. A count back was required to decide runner up with Chris “Critta” Waters edging out Dick Clelannd after both finished on 36. It was good to see colourful local identity, Philip “Tommo” Thomson show some improvement to get out of the 20s just.
Andy Phillips almost played to his handicap to win Saturday’s stableford scoring 37 points. Michael “Tickers” Tickner was 2nd with 35 while Pat Hallion on 31 was the only other player to score 30 or more. These 3 players were the only ones to break 100 off the stick.
Results:
37 – Andy Phillips
35 – Michael “Tickers” Tickner
31 – Pat Hallion
29 – Dick Secomb
28 – Peter Weiss

28 Colourful Local Identity Philip “Tommo” Thomson (Mars Bar)
With possibly the lowest score to ever win this coverted trophy Andy Phillips prevailed with a score of 35 stableford points. The conditions were windy which some claim was the reason for the poor scores and maybe that is true. Colourful local identity Philip “Tommo” Thomson failed to follow up on his promising return to golf last week finishing in 7th position. The Mars Bar was shared between Kobi Wenzel & Dick Cleland with the club generously giving 2 Mars Bars.
Compettion fees for this eveent were $10 per player all of which will be donated to the Anti Cancer Council.

35 – Andy Phillips
