16 players teed off on a fine clear morning with no sign of rain or wind.

27/5/2023 - Calderwood Golf Course - 2 Ball Best Ball - Individual Stableford - 7:00am

 27 players teed off on a cool morning on a day that was forecast to hit 24 degrees. It was definitely chilly in the first 3-4 holes until we warmed up a bit - hands were definitely spending more time in the pockets of our jackets. It was nice when you managed to get into the sun.

The fairways had a very good grass cover and they had been well mowed producing a reasonable amount of 'run' and the rough was in good condition.

The greens were also in excellent condition resulting in a good test for our putting.

The Guzzlers Cup was won by Steve Baker with 37 points. Steve obviously likes Calderwood as it was his second win here since joining the Miranda Golf Club.

20/5/2023 - Boomerang Golf Course - Individual Stableford - 7:30am

26 players teed off on a cool morning wit clear skies and little breeze early. The wind freshened during the morning ensuring that we kept our windbreakers on until almost the end of the game.

Parts of the course were very spongy and a few golf balls plugged never to be seen again. Our golf shoes were very wet at the end of 18 holes as were our socks.

The greens were in good condition and were fast making it a bit difficult for putting.
