Gainsborough still has some Bite

Nine people arrived at Gainsborough Greens for the Rocklea booking this week. The odd player out attached to the trailing pair during the second and fifth holes, due to the tee-offs there being directly into the rising sun, requiring more spotters to track the balls.

After that, the odd player dived into the gap ahead, and played forward through the field. As he advanced through the groups, the care-factor of those he was passing was dropping substantially.

After everyone in the lead group found water off the tee on the 16th, things began looking up, culminating with them all parring the 18th to finish out.

Next scheduled game is at Wolston Park on May 31. Original tee-off was 6:30, but we’ll see if that’s still the case. To help with that, contact the secretary with your intention to play, so he can coordinate numbers and cart-hires with the course.

 

Virginia Event Cancelled, again

Virginia have restricted golf on their course to members-only, so have cancelled our booking for this Sunday, May 3. Quite a bit of their layout is visible from outside, so they need all players to be on their best behaviour.

Next Scheduled game is at Gainsborough Greens at 6:50 on May 17.
