1 January 2022 - Boomerang Golf Course - Individual Stableford - 7:00am

18 players teed off on a warm and sunny morning.

The course was a bit wet underfoot. The greens were moist and held the ball for approach shots but were not as slow for putting as was expected.

The fairways were a bit wet underfoot so there must have been a bit of rain there during the week.

32 players teed off on a clear morning with a forecast of a hot temperatures approaching 36 in Sydney.  The early start limited the impact of the heat until the back nine.

The greens and fairways were in good condition. The grass on the greens was kept a little long by the greens staff in an effort to stop the greens from burning under the heat. The fairways were lush with good green grass cover.

11 December 2021 - Gerringong Golf Course - Individual Stableford - 9:00am

The south coast of NSW had been hit with heavy rain and high winds over the preceding 24-48 hours. The southern suburbs of Sydney had been deluged with rain and flash flooding had been experienced across a wide part of the Illawarra and Southern Tablelands.

When we arrived for golf the course appeared dry but the clouds were dark and the wind was howling!

Motorized carts were allowed on the course which was appreciated as many of us would not want to try to walk the course especially when it is wet underfoot. That would have been very tiring!

Nevertheless 24 players teed off. There were many placed where the carts either struggled or did a bit of damage so we tried to drive mostly on the rough and avoided the fairways to minimise the damage to the course.

Most players found the conditions very hard and scoring was much lower than normal.

The fairways were mainly lush and green with the greens were well covered with no blemishes or uneven grass to speak off but they were a bit slow for putting due the moisture content.

The Guzzlers Cup was won by Peter Bull

1st Place:                           Peter Bull (31)

2nd Place:                          Scott Whyte 30)

3rd Place:                           Mick Connor (28) on a count back from James Pateman

Pink Ball:                           John Adelerhof (8)
