05/07/2025 - Rosnay (Auburn) Golf Course - Individual Stableford - 8:30am

 Boomerang Golf Course was closed mid-week and the proshop advised that the course was very wet underfoot and carts would not be permitted on the course but Mick Connor was able to secure a booking at Rosnay Golf Course.

12 players teed off on a cool dry morning (12 degrees) with a forecast of fine weather all day.

The grass cover in the 'rough' off the fairways was a bit thick causing players a bit of difficulty striking the green from the rough. 

There was a 300mm preferred lie on fairways.

The greens were well manicured.

The Bunkers were IN PLAY.

GUZZLER CUP was won by Chris Dodd

Winner:                             Chris Dodd (36 points)

Rob Gillespie's last game with the Miranda Golf Club before he and his wife move to Buderim in Queensland.

21/06/2025 - Boomerang Golf Course - Individual Stableford - 7:00am

32 players teed off on a cool morning (6 degrees) with clear skies with a forecast of 19-20 degrees later in the day.

All bunkers were in play.

The fairways were mostly in good condition with very few muddy sections that were small in size.

The greens were well covered with grass that had been cut short making putts quick.
