7/1/2023 - Boomerang Golf Course - Individual Stableford - 7:00am

17 diehard players braved the conditions while several turned up but did not want to get their nickers wet so they went home to be with their wives - very commendable.

Considering the amount of rain that the course received yesterday and overnight the course was in very good condition.

When we arrived it was raining but by the time the 4th group teed off it was only a light drizzle. It turned into fog by the time the 4th group made it to the 3rd tee. As you know if there is fog there is no rain. The fog remained for another 3 holes after which the wind arrived and blew the fog away. By the 10th hole the wind also abated and, although there was no sun, the conditions were excellent for golf.

PAIRS MATCHPLAY

Ian & Tim Tillbrook defeated Rob Guidi & Scott Whyte

26 November 2022 - Rosnay (Auburn) Golf Course - Individual Stableford - 06:05am

 Only 9 starters turned up to experience a beautiful warm sunny day that was perfect for golf.

The greens were in perfect condition with a tick cover of grass that was good to putt on.

The fairways also had a thick cover of grass with only a few spots that were still recovering from recent heavy rains in Sydney. There were no puddles or muddy patches on the course.

Brilliant day for golf.

Due to the low numbers there were no major prizes.

29 October 2022 - Mittagong Golf Course - ANNUAL DAY - Individual Stableford - 6:00am

 Heavy rain during the week caused the management of Mt Broughton to close the course on Wednesday and Thursday which also resulted in a decision to not allow carts on the course today (Saturday 29/10/22). This would mean that our players would need to walk a very wet course and pull their clubs on a hand buggy which would be tiring for those who were already tired from the previous day's golf and a night of eating and drinking.

This forced our Secretary, Mick Connor, to seek an alternate venue. Mick was able to secure the Mittagong Golf Course but we could only have motorised carts if we teed off at 6am which our players agreed to do.

26 players teed off on a cool dry morning. The first few holes were very wet underfoot and the motorised carts churned up the golf course and we were surprised that they were allowed out as they appeared to create s lot of dame to the wet fairways.

The sun came out and we started to warm up after about 7am.

The Guzzlers Cup winner was Rob Guidi.

1st Place:             Rob Guidi (31 points)

2nd Place:           Frank Fuller (29 points)

3rd Place:           Peter Bull (28 points)

15 October 2022 - Calderwood Valley - Individual Stableford - 7:00am

22 players teed off on a dry warm morning that had clear skies at 7am with a slight breeze. It got even warmer by 9am by which time our jumpers were well and truly off. It was a beautiful day for golf.

The greens were firm and in good condition.

The fairways and rough were well mowed and mostly dry underfoot. The course was in really good condition despite less than a dozen smallish spots that were still a bit soggy. There were no areas where water had pooled.

The dams were full and the creeks were running freely creating a background of pleasant sounds against which to play golf.

 Bunkers were GUR if they had water in them.

 Cancelled due to heavy rain throughout the week leading up to the weekend

1 October 2022 - The Ridge Golf Course - Club Championships - ROUND 3 - Individual Stableford - 5:40am

  29 players teed off on a warmish morning which turned into a beautiful sunny day despite the fact that showers had been forecast.

Bunkers were GUR and there was a 30cm preferred lie on the fairways. 

The greens were a bit damp due to the rain and that meant that many putts came up short.

There were still muddle patches on the low lying fairways and the general dampness meant that there was  not much run on the drives and long shots.

20 August 2022 - Calderwood Valley Golf Course - Club Championships - ROUND 1 - Individual Stableford Club - 7:00am

34 players teed off on a very cold morning that had clear skies at 7am with a strong breeze behind us on the first tee but became overcast by 9am. Luckily there was no rain.

The greens were is good condition although a bit slow.

The fairways and rough were well mowed and dry underfoot. The course was in really good condition despite less than a dozen smallish spots that were still a bit soggy. There were no areas where water had pooled.

The dams were full and the creeks were running freely creating a background of pleasant sounds against which to play golf.

 Bunkers were 'in play' and it was 6" preferred lie on fairways only.
