Bundoora next Saturday 30th of June

Filed under: News, Events — Cary @ 9:21 am

How does Bundoora next Saturday sound?? A lot will depend on the weather I’m guessing. I’ve spoken to someone who played out here last week & they said the cousre is in pretty good nick. There are a couple of holes that are stuffed, no grass on them, but the majority is OK. Let me know if you want to come along by email or leaving a comment here. I haven’t booked a Tee time as yet, when I do I’ll post it here.

I’m joining Neil on a weekend away with his RSL golf group up at Nurmerkah, I think ;)

Neil has been playing once a month with the Epping RSL golf club for about 6 months. He asked me if I wanted to join him in a weekend away. Stupid question, of course I do :) We leave Friday & come back Sunday with golf on the Saturday & the Sunday. I’m looking forward to getting away, hopefully I wont embaress myself on the course by lossing to Neil LOL.

Goonawarra 15th of February

Filed under: Reviews, Events — Cary @ 3:34 pm

Stan, Garrett, Dick & I trundle off to Goonawarra on a gorgous morning. I started the day with a par, & Dick in his ever positive frame of mind said “It can only get worse from here”. The next two holes proved him right, Barstard ;) But the real story of the front nine was Stan. He was on fire!!!!! He played the best golf I have ever seen him play, he shot 3 pars & a birdie, & was fantastic to watch. On the holes he didn’t birdie or par he was hitting clean, great shot, just slightly misdirected :( At the end of the day he finished with 5 pars & a birdie. Garrett & Dick both finished with a par a piece which was pretty good going considering the heat.

The course is in fantastic condition considering the water restriction that are now in place. The fairways are lush & the greens are green (funny that) and quick. One thing that was a pain in the ass, when we finished the front nine & made our way over to the 10th tee, there was a sign saying closed for watering. It was closed for a couple of hours so we had to play the front nine again. I wasn’t overly fussed, I had played here a few times & so had Stan. But this was Dicks first time there & he was a little dissapointed not to play the full course.
