FAMILIAR SIGHT: Saturday’s 4BBB Runners-up Bede Tooth and Matt Duff were on-fire at Forbes Golf Course.
Last Saturday the Men’s golf competition was a 4BBB Par event, sponsored by Cahill Footwear. The field of 95 players included both men and ladies, all of whom were keen to get a good score before any storms hit.
The overall winners were Dave Bernardi and Stuart Thomas who relished the conditions and ravaged the course with a score of 12-up. David played well below his 24 handicap but was glad when Stuart was able to chime in as needed.
Runners-up were Bede Tooth and Matt Duff, both of whom also enjoyed the conditions to score 10-up. Tooth has been in strong form lately and scored well in another good start.
There was no Sunday Stableford Medley as the field was too small. Unfortunately for those that played they did score well and would easily have won.
On Australia Day, a Stableford Medley was held. A healthy field of 24 players found the conditions very comfortable, which helped the scoring.
The winner was Jake Shaw with 43 points, just ahead of Jarrod Hall (Trundle) on 42 points. Jarrod likes our course as he always seems to do well when he plays here. The ball sweep went to 37 points.
The NTP’s went to: 9th – Mitch Bayley; 18th – Andrew Saar. The 3rd Hole Super Pin went to Caleb Hanrahan, with a shot of 3.8 metres.
This Sunday the Forbes Golf Club hosts the CWDGA Men’s Pennants. The course will be closed for the morning.
