John Betland Carves Up Course

April 3, 2025 by Short Putt

On Saturday in the Men’s golf 18-Hole Stableford, sponsored by Forbes Holiday Park, John Betland made no errors in scor­ing the best scratch and nett scores of the day. Adding to the excitement the generos­ity of the sponsor saw the remaining play­ers in the field of 54 scrambling for placings down to third.

Div-1 was taken out by John Betland with a score of 40 points. He shot the same scratch score on each half but was unhin­dered by his ‘plus’ handicap on the back9. Runner-up was Anthony Alley with 37 points but stumbling on the back-9. In thirdplace was Cooper Byrnes (36 Points) rid­ing a wave of good golfing form.

Nominations are open for three major events coming up: the Men’s Open on 27 April, Ladies Open on 4 May and the Vets WoG on 5-9 May. Check the website or contact the Pro Shop for details.

This Saturday,5 April, will be the ‘Road­ies Day’ Monthly Medal, sponsored by Grayson, Earl, French and Haley. Sunday will have a Stableford Medley and also the Summer Sixes Grand Final in the after­noon.
