Great Weather For Golf

July 29, 2022 By Short Put 

Dennis McGroder enjoys a swing in the sun.

A total of 73 Forbes golfers used a beautiful winter’s day on Saturday to score well in the 4BBB Stableford Medley with Richard Smith and Reggie Murray the overall winners. 

They combined experience and youth to score 48 points, comprised mainly of 3-pointers. Their 25 points on the back-9 was the best of any pairing. 

The runners-up were Heather Davidson and Ev Uphill who were very pleased with their 44 points. They also had a good back- 9 scoring 22 points. 

The NTP’s went to: 9th – men: C Hanrahan, women: S Crosby; 18th – men: H Callaghan, women: S Crosby. The 3rd hole super pin went to Peter Dawson with a wide shot to 5.7m distant. 

The ball sweep went to 40 points on count back. Visitors included: Lee Grierson (Wollongong), Chris Smith (The Australian), John Adam (Macquarie Links), Walter Bergmann, Ross Nattrass and Aaron Whittingham (Antill Park GC). 

The winner of the Sunday Stableford Medley was Henry Nash with 39 points, ahead of runner-up Josh Coulthurst on 33 points. There were no NTP’s, enabling the ball sweep to go to: 31 – S Betland; 30 – S Nash, L Grierson and J Cripps. 

This weekend the men play an 18-hole par event, while the women play a par event for the ‘Fran Smith Memorial Trophy’. 

The course will be closed for social play on Sunday for the women’s ‘Xmas in July’ event. Take note of the following programme changes: Callaghan 4-Ball Ambrose on 4 Sep, Roylances Cup 10 Sep, VW Scramble on 25 Sep, NSW Vets Regional Event on 17/18 Oct, Forbes Nissan Classic on 19/20 November.
