The weather was warm and the course was a little slower after the rain. It meant the scores were a little higher than what they were last month when Ray McDonald took the prize. 

Brady took the prize from Golding on a count back after they both scored 82 off the stick on handicaps of 18. 

Bad luck Allan, better luck next year! 

On Sunday the Kemp’s dominated the scoring, taking half the balls on offer. 

Lachlan took the overall win, with 48 points. He had a 72 off the stick on a 16 handicap. Lachlan will find it a little hard from now on as he managed to lose five shots on his handicap. Great effort Lachlan, hope you play that well this Sunday in the Yass Open.

The open still has available time slots for players who may be interested. 

On Saturday we have a two-person ambrose event sponsored by our professional, Kirk Davis. 

Then, on Sunday the open starts, which is sponsored by IA and VP Robertson Landscape Supplies. 

Luff Motors are contributing a Toyota Yaris to the first hole-in-one on the 15th and Yass Nursery are taking care of the junior open. So members, if you’re not down yet on the timesheet please sign up, if not for anything other than trying to win a Yaris!
