Hills Hackers Jan 2008

It was a great day last Sunday (6/1/08) as the Hills Hackers tore up Oakbank Golf Course. A fine turnout with some rare appearances from Richard, Tony & Ian, along with a couple of sharks. Random groups balanced out the field, eskis were in position and it was game on.

Plenty of golfers were thankful for the Ambrose format otherwise some of them would still be out there. The out-of-bounds grapevines got a hammersing, as did the the eski on the 4th tee. Nearest the pin was setup early with by Dave J. Quite a few others didn't hit the green all day. The longest drive started out with a huge hit by John H. It was beaten by an outsider playing the course, then "Legend in the Making' Squiz took it out, smack in the middle of the fairway, a monster drive.

Playing left-handed at the 8th par 3 was a bit of fun, in fact it was one of the better shots of the day for Tony S. Ian H made us chuckle when his clun went further than the ball - no he didn't throw it, he was playing a shot!

Final honours went to Robbo, Dave J, Jack and Scott with a even par 68. Best putt went to Jamie F, and worst shot of the day was a close tie between Ian, Tony, Robbo, Dave F, Richard, Claude, Steve J & Patrick.

Until next time ...
