TUESDAY 24TH SEPTEMBER

 

33 players, consisting of 30 male and 5 ladies made their way up the mountain to the Millaa Millaa GC to play the final round of the Patrons Trophy yesterday Tuesday 24th September. Sponsored by the FNQ VGA. We were met by Marg who supplied tea, coffee & toast which was greatly appreciated and also Don who organised the course and the carts.  Always a pleasure to travel to Millaa Millaa. 

The day started off overcast but cleared to a sunny warm day, the course was in great condition although the greens were a bit challenging.  But if anybody had seen these greens about a month ago after having been knocked about during the prolonged wet and to see the improvement is quite remarkable.  We commend the volunteers at Millaa Millaa GC.

Scores on the whole were quite good for the day with our new member from Ravenshoe GC Reg Dwyer carding a very nice round on a countback to local Ross Ellen. Both had 38 points so obviously they were reading the greens without much problem.

Edna Atkinson took out the ladies from Ali Gibson.
