Weekly Golf Report - 13/9/26
Something different this week with the field contesting a two person Ambrose and recording some very good scores along the way.
The best of those scores came from Michael Coyne and Rod Breen who finished with an excellent Nett score of 63.5 off a combined/adjusted handicap of 4.5.
Finishing two shots back were Daryl and Wil Harrison who finished with Nett 65.5 from a handicap of 3.5.
Leading the ball comp winners were John and Lynne Canavan (one of only three husband wife teams in the field) with Nett 67.5.
Other ball winners being Lawrie Casey and Peter Blackmore (not quite a husband wife team) with 67.75, Brad Edwards and Frank Broucek (67.75), Paul Kuiper and Peter Mangan (Nett 68), Jake Gascoyne and Kellan Robinson (Nett 68.75) and Colin Ranigtonga and Ian Brown (also Nett 68.75).
Nearest the Pin trophy winners were Wil Harrison, Paul Pappin and Jenni Bauerle on the 3rd, Paul Kuiper, Peter Blackmore and Jenni Bauerle (12th) and Mick Coyne the First Tea voucher on the 15th.
Tuesday’s Stableford event was played on freshly cored and sanded greens and the club extends a big thank you to all who made themselves available to assist with completing this massive task over Sunday and Monday.
Someone who still enjoys a play in a good sandpit, Kevin Bauerle, really found the renovated greens to his liking piling on 41 points as he posted a five-shot win in B grade from Graeme Harrison with 36 points.
In A grade Daryl Harrison and Lawrie Casey both finished with 34 points with the countback falling Daryl’s way as he posted another sub 80 score of 79 off the stick.
Albert Adams led the ball comp winners with 34 points, a list that also included Peter Sherman with 33 points, Mick Gallivan (33) and Kevin Humbert (33).
Balls on the par three holes were won by Lawrie Casey (A grade 3rd), Peter Blackmore (B grade 3rd) and Peter Sherman (First Tea voucher 15th).
Laurie Radley won the ball for nearest second shot on the 9th.
This week’s event is everyone’s favourite, Par.
The main event on the following week will be on the Grand Final Holiday Friday which will be a 4BBB Stableford event with the usual 1130am assembly. For further details, please see the Valley View Web Site or Facebook page.
