PSC Golf from Mulligans Lakeside

Tuesday, Jan. 10, Treasure Hill – Stableford

Tuesday was a return visit to Treasure Hill, where the course just continues to impress; the greens currently match the rest of the venue in condition, and are running true and fast.  The weather again was close to perfect, I did wonder what the rich people were doing, but didn’t really care.

 

Jeff Wylie (8) led the way home with 34 points, from Phill Waite (14) with 30, while Phill was the only player to sign for the NTP marker.

Thursday, Jan. 12, Greenwood – Stableford

Greenwood was our venue for Thursday, with the C & A combination being the allotted test.  We again joined up with PJ Bar to take advantage of the discounted rate for 20+, big thanks to Dennis & crew as they really carried the load on this day following a disappointing turnout from ML players.

The course was in peak condition, & was a pleasure to play.  With the shortfall in players, we decided on a skins format with Jim jumping out of the blocks, but Jeff ended up as the leader following a series of halved holes.  Dan was unlucky with several holes, where he made good scores through longish putts, only to see other players hole on top of him, to continue carryovers.  The carryover on the 18th was donated to Banglamung Boys Home.

Mon & Tues,Jan 16-17, Kabin Buri – Stableford

Monday & Tuesday was an overnighter, a trip away to Kabin Buri, where we played the Kabin Buri Sports Club on both days.  The course was in very good condition, generous fairways, lightish rough & large, flat greens gave everyone the opportunity for reasonable scoring.

We had decided on daily competitions with Front 9, Back 9 & Overall available.  Day 1 winners were Ian Hart (19) & Jeff Wylie (7) sharing the Front 9 with 18 points each.  Ed Horrocks (21) got the Back 9 with 20 points, while Bob Edwards (11) in his first game this holiday got the Overall with 39 points.

Following a bit of confusion with our booking on Day 2, everything fell into place & we got away pretty close to our previously confirmed tee time.  Ian Hart again led the way on the Front 9 with 21 points, Bob Edwards continued his good form to win the Back 9 with 20, while the consistent Jeff Wylie got the Overall with 36 points.

Thursday, Jan. 19, Pleasant Valley – Stableford

Thursday, it was back to normal competition play, with a trip to Pleasant Valley.  Again the course was in good order, the showers held off until we had completed our round, so all in all a good day for golf.

That man Bob Edwards (11) clearly led the way with 38 points, after having played steady golf all day.  In 2nd was the (today) erratic Jeff Wylie (7) with 33 points, having eagled the last to edge Willem.

Willem did get some consolation with a NTP, alongside Jeff & Bob, with 1 going to Banglamung Boys Home.

Note:  Mulligans Lakeside plays golf generally on Tuesday & Thursday, with ML hosting prompt presentations on both days.  Call 0890941841 for scheduling or enquiries.  Hope to see you there, cheers & good golfing!
