In this blog we have started to consider various golf terms.  Last week was the ‘air shot’ and how to intimidate the ball.  This week it is the Golf Drive off the Tee.  This event tends to be an ‘afternoon outing through scenic, heavily wooded county.’  There is not one golfer who would disagree with that definition. 

The Sponsor for today’s golf round was our own and beloved Michael Thompson.  Michael calls the shots and it was a day to remember, for most.  We played a two-ball Ambrose with each player required to have nine drives (often through heavily wooded country!).  It required a great deal of tactical intrigue and players tried to play to their combined strengths.   Thank you, Michael Thompson.

Congratulations to the winners of the mixed two ball mixed Ambrose; Greg Black and Luke Holden (relatives of Keith and Helen Jones) visiting from Rockhampton.  Runners Up were Brendan Barker and Raymond Adams.  The Run Downs went to Lochie Hendry and Sam Dowie, Gordon Rigden and Barry Jones, Keith Jones and Richard Reardon, Kev Rowlings and P Dudley, Casey Leotta and David Reeves.

Ladies Pin Shots went to Helen Jones, Irene Green, Lisa Stuart and Linda Kelly.  Men’s pin shots went to Scott Constable, Casey Leotta, Angelo Maugeri, Lochie Hendry, Raymond Adams and Luke Holden.

Next Saturday, 5^th of September, the Sponsor is a liquid favourite, Mountain View Wines.
